---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Saddle in the Rain - John Prine ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tuning: Standard Artist: John Prine Album: Prime Prine Year: 1976 Intro: Verse I wish, I hope, I wonder Where you're at sometimes Is your back against the wall? Or just across the line Have you been standing in the rain Reciting nursery rhymes? Trying to recall Some long lost kind of peace of mind Peace of mind Try spending the night sometime All alone in a frozen room Afterneath you've lain Your Saddle in the rain (Repeat Intro) I dreamed they locked God up Down in my basement And he waited there for me To have this accident So he could drink my wine And eat me like a sacrament And I just stood there like I do Then I came and went I came and went Like a bird in a foreign sky Couldn't even say good bye Or come and share the pain My Saddle's in the rain (Break) (Repeat Intro) (Repeat Verse) (Repeat Break) (Repeat Intro) (Repeat Verse) (Repeat Intro)
