Seven lonely days, and a dozen towns ago, I reached out one
FCC7FG7
night and you were gone, I don't know why you'd run, what
CAmD7
you're running to or from, all I know is I want to bring you
G7
home.
CG7CF
So I'm walking in the rain, thumbing for a ride, on this
CFCC7FG7
lonely Kentucky back road, I've loved you much too long,
CAmD7
my loves too strong, to let you go never knowing what went
G7
wrong.
(Chorus)
DCBEm
Kentucky rain keeps pouring down, and up aheads another
AmG7FEmFCC
town that I'll go walking through, with the rain in
EmAmFG7
my shoes, searching for you, in the cold Kentucky
CEFG7C
rain, in the cold Kentucky rain.
CG7CF
Showed your photograph, to some old gray bearded men, sitting
CFCC7F
on a bench outside a general store, they said yes, she's
G7CAmD7
been here, but their memory wasn't clear, was it yesterday,
G7
no wait, the day before.
CG7CF
Finally got a ride, with a preacher man who asked where you
CFCC7F
bound for on such a cold dark afternoon, as we drove on
G7CAmD7
through the rain, as he listened, I explained, and he left me
G7
with a prayer that I'd find you.
Chorus
