Appalacian Rain Chords

(ver. 1)
Matraca Berg
A                           D           A   F#m
He came into to town in the early springtime
                A     E           A
to work with my daddy down in the mines
                                           D   
It was hot in the summer when he said good-bye
       A                      E         A    	  	 
and he left me a secret I can no longer hide... 	 
 	  	  	  	 D 	   A   F#m
Now the only thing here that is welcoming me
 	  	 A 	       E             A 	 
is a cold rainy morning and a Greyhound bus seat
                                      D
He just had to come back and try to explain
A                         E      A
Cry for your daughter Appalacian rain...

CHORUS:
D                     A            D
Mountains of sorrow , mountains of pain
A                        E      A 
you'll never give for my baby a name
D                   A        D   Dsus2
my family's honor , took it away
A                           E      A
cry for your daughter , Appalacian rain...

VERSE 2
A                                D         A       F#m 
I was washed in the blood in the river you filled
                   A       E                 A
Now the sound of a shotgun rings through the hills
                                              D
and the blood of her father runs through it's veins
A                           E      A
Cry for your daughter , Appalacian rain...

CHORUS REPETED;Then the ending;
D                     A           D     Dsus2
Tears in the holler , tears of my shame 
A                           E      A
Cry for your daughter , Appalacian rain...
