Songs About Rain Tab

by Gary Allan


This is my first Tab/Chord chart, so please be nice ♡ ♥
This is nice country waltz in a slow, slanted 3/4 time, emphasis on beat 1.
Strumming once on the down beat, and double strumming on beats 2+ and 3+, thus
creating a "Down, Down-up, Down-up" pattern.
This however is just the Basic pattern and doesn't need to be strictly adhered to.
Here's the song as best as I can discern:

Intro: 

(4 measures of just strumming sans lyrics)

Verse 1:
                                                                
Well this town has closed down way too early and there's nothing to do,
                                                    
so I'm drivin' around in circles and I'm thinkin' about you.
         Ddim7                 
 Today I heard you got a new last name.  
            Ddim7                       
 Sure didn't know it was gonna hit me this way,
                                                       
And the radio just keeps on playin' all these songs about rain.

                                                              
Now there's all kinds of songs about babies and love that goes right,
                                                       
But for some unknown reasons nobody wants to play them tonight.
               Ddim7             
 Hey I hope it's sunny wherever you are,
                 Ddim7                      
 but that's sure not the picture tonight in my car.
                                     
And it sure ain't easin my pain, all these songs like...

Chorus:

                           
Rainy Night in Georgia, and Kentucky Rain,
                     
Here Comes that Rainy Day Feelin Again,
                       
Blue Eyes Cryin' In The Early Mornin' Rain,
                         
They go on and on and there's no two the same.
    Amin7                                                 (pause)
Oh it would be easy to blame all these songs about rain.


Verse 2:

                                                 
Well I thought I was over you but I guess maybe I'm not,
                                                       
'Cause when I let you go, looks like lonely is all that I got.
           Ddim7                    
 Guess I'll never know what could have been.
           Ddim7                    
 Sure ain't helpin' this mood that I'm in,
                             
If they're gonna keep on playin' me songs like...

Chorus:

                           
Rainy Night in Georgia, and Kentucky Rain,
                     
Here Comes that Rainy Day Feelin Again,
                       
Blue Eyes Cryin' In The Early Mornin' Rain,
                     
They go on and on there's no two the same.
Amin7                                             
Oh how I wish I could blame all these songs about rain.

Outro:

Repeat to fade        ...
Lyrics repeat Chorus.
