[Intro]

[Verse]
Em
I wish, I hope, I wonder
                   A
Where you're at so metimes
     Em
Is y our back against the wall?
           A
Or just ac ross the line
                  Em
Have you been sta nding in the rain
                    A
Reciting nursery rh ymes
             Em                             A
Trying to re call some long lost kind of pe ace of mind
           D
Peace of m ind
                   G
Try spending the n ight sometime
                  D
All alone in a fr ozen room
                    A
Afterneath you've l ain
                     Em
Your saddle in the r ain

I dreamed they locked God up
               A
Down in my bas ement
           Em
And he wai ted there for me
                  A
To have this acci dent
               Em
So he could dr ink my wine
                        A
And eat me like a sacra ment
              Em
And I just st ood there like I do
                  A
Then I came and w ent
             D
I came and w ent
                     G
Like a bird in a for eign sky
                D
Couldn't even s ay goodbye
                        A
Or come and share the p ain
                     Em
My Saddle's in the r ain.

G                   D
La la la la la la la la la
C                       B
La la la la la la la la la
G                       D
La la la la la la la la la

I saw a friend who doesn't know
               A
If I'm his fri end just yet
               Em
His eyes and m outh were widely open
          A
And his j aw was set
            Em
Like he'd f ell off a cliff
                      A
And hadn't hit the bo ttom yet
             Em
I wish he wo uldn't pull those things on me
            A
Without a n et
            D
Without a n et
                       G
I had him up to the ho use one time
                       D
And we was having a re al good time
                    A
Then he went and la in
                    Em
His saddle in the r ain

G                       D
La la la la la la la la la
C                       B
La la la la la la la la la
G                       D
La la la la la la la la la
C                       B
La la la la la la la la la

         Em                              A
In a lau ndromat not too far from the Al amo
         Em                               A
Sits a g irl who stole my records very lo ng ago
          Em                                   A
And she w ishes, wants and washes out those di rty clothers
          Em                                  A
As she sh uts her eyes and dreams about her O ne-Eyed Joe
           D
One-Eyed J oe
                   G
Car parked on a di rty road
                    D
Heaven knows the lo ad she pulled
                     A
Couldn't take the st rain
                  Em
A saddle in the r ain

[Instrumental]
