Kentucky Rain Chords

(ver. 3)
Elvis Presley
[Intro]
Fmaj7, C, Fmaj7, G

[Verse]
C           Csus2       C         Csus4
Seven lonely days and a dozen towns ago,
C               F                  C
I reached out one night and you were gone.
F                    G                C      C7      Am
Don't know why you'd run, what you're running to or from,
D              D7                    G7
all I know is I want to bring you home.

      C               Csus2  C             Csus4
So I'm walking in the rain, thumbing for a ride on this
C         F     C
lonely Kentucky backroad.
     F                  G         C   C7          Am
I've loved you much too long and my love's too strong
D              D7                    G7
to let you go, never knowing what went wrong.

[Chorus]
 Fmaj7  (finger pick),

D                         C Bm
Kentucky rain keeps pouring down
Em                     Am
and up ahead's another town
G    F    Em Fmaj7
that I'll go walking thru
C
with the rain in my shoes,
Am       Am7 G F       G
searchin for you
                     C  Em  F
in the cold Kentucky rain,
       G            C
in the cold Kentucky rain.
   
Fmaj7 (pick), G


[Verse]
C            Csus2       C                 Csus4
Showed your photograph to some old gray bearded men
C                   F                C
sitting on a bench outside a gen'ral store.
           F                G              C      C7       Am
They said "Yes, she's been here" but their mem'ry wasn't clear,
       D              D7                G7
was it yesterday, no, wait the day before.

C         Csus2               C                 Csus4
So I fin'ly got a ride with a preacher man who asked:
           C                F             C
"Where you bound on such a cold dark afternoon?"
      F                  G
As we drove on thru the rain
     C          C7   Am
as he listened  I explained
          D           D7                   G
and he left me with a prayer that I'd find you.

[Chorus]
Fmaj7 (finger pick),

D                         C Bm
Kentucky rain keeps pouring down
Em                     Am
and up ahead's another town
G    F    Em Fmaj7
that I'll go walking thru
C
with the rain in my shoes,
Am       Am7 G F     G
searchin for you
                     C  Em  F
in the cold Kentucky rain,
       G             C  Em  F
in the cold Kentucky rain,
       G             C  Em  F
in the cold Kentucky rain,
       G             C  Em  F
in the cold Kentucky rain,
       G            C
in the cold Kentucky rain.
