G            D7sus4/G   G           D7sus4/G
Seven lonely days and a dozen towns ago
  G               D7sus4/G           G     G7
I reached out one night and you were gone
C                    D                G             Em
Don't know why you'd run, what you're running to or from
A7sus4     A7   A7sus4  A7        | Dsus4 Dsus2 | D |
All I know is I want to bring you home

       G              D7sus4/G  G              D7sus4/G
So I'm walking in the rain,     thumbin' for a ride
        G       G7sus4    G        G7
On this lonely   Kentucky backroad
     C                  D        G               Em
I've loved you much too long; my love's just too strong
   A7sus4     A7     A7sus4  A7          Dsus4 D   Cmaj7
To let you go, never knowing   what went wrong.


A                           G  D/F#
Kentucky rain keeps pouring down,
Bm                      Em   D    C    Bm Cmaj7
 And up ahead's another town that I'll go walking through
         Gmaj7             Em
With the rain in my shoes, 
Em  Em    D     C     Dsus4
Searching for   you----
       D             G       Bm     C           
In the cold Kentucky rai-y-ai-ai-ai-ain, 
       D             | G Gmaj7 |3/4 Cmaj7 | % |4/4 Dsus4 D |
In the cold Kentucky rain


G                D7sus4/G G                     D7sus4/G
Showed your photograph to some old gray bearded men
        G              D7sus4/G      G    
Sitting on a bench outside a general store
           C               D        
They said "Yes, she's been here"
          G             Em 
But their memory wasn't clear.
       A7sus4     A7     A7sus4   A7  | Dsus4 |Dsus4 D Dsus2 D |
Was it yesterday?    No, wait the day before

G             D7sus4/G     G                D7sus4/G
Finally got a ride, with a preacher man who asked,
           G               D7sus4/G        G    
"Where you bound on such a cold, dark afternoon?"
      C                    D           G            Em
As we drove on through the rain, as he listened I explained
        A7sus4      A7   A7sus4      A7       Dsus4 D   Cmaj7
And he left me with    a prayer that I'd find you


A                           G  D/F#
Kentucky rain keeps pouring down,
Bm                      Em   D    C    Bm Cmaj7
 And up ahead's another town that I'll go walking through
         Gmaj7             Em
With the rain in my shoes, 
Em  Em    D     C     Dsus4
Searching for   you----
       D             G       Bm     C           
In the cold Kentucky rai-y-ai-ai-ai-ain, 
       D             G       Bm     C           
In the cold Kentucky rai-y-ai-ai-ai-ain, 
       D             G       Bm     C           
In the cold Kentucky rai-y-ai-ai-ai-ain,
