Saddle In The Rain
John Prine
[Intro]
Em
[Verse]
EmI wish, I hope, I wonder
Where you're at so Ametimes
Is y Emour back against the wall?
Or just ac Aross the line
Have you been sta Emnding in the rain
Reciting nursery rh Aymes
Trying to re Emcall some long lost kind of pe Aace of mind
Peace of m Dind
Try spending the n Gight sometime
All alone in a fr Dozen room
Afterneath you've l Aain
Your saddle in the r Emain
[Instrumental]
Em
[Verse]
EmI dreamed they locked God up
Down in my bas Aement
And he wai Emted there for me
To have this acci Adent
So he could dr Emink my wine
And eat me like a sacra Ament
And I just st Emood there like I do
Then I came and w Aent
I came and w Dent
Like a bird in a for Geign sky
Couldn't even s Day goodbye
Or come and share the p Aain
My Saddle's in the r Emain.
GLa la la la la la la Dla la
CLa la la la la la la la Bla
GLa la la la la la la la Dla
CLa la la la la la la la Bla
[Instrumental]
Em
[Verse]
EmI saw a friend who doesn't know
If I'm his fri Aend just yet
His eyes and m Emouth were widely open
And his j Aaw was set
Like he'd f Emell off a cliff
And hadn't hit the bo Attom yet
I wish he wo Emuldn't pull those things on me
Without a n Aet
Without a n Det
I had him up to the ho Guse one time
And we was having a re Dal good time
Then he went and la Ain
His saddle in the r Emain
GLa la la la la la la la Dla
CLa la la la la la la la Bla
GLa la la la la la la la Dla
CLa la la la la la la la Bla
[Instrumental]
Em
[Verse]
In a lau Emndromat not too far from the Al Aamo
Sits a g Emirl who stole my records very lo Ang ago
And she w Emishes, wants and washes out those di Arty clothers
As she sh Emuts her eyes and dreams about her O Ane-Eyed Joe
One-Eyed J Doe
Car parked on a di Grty road
Heaven knows the lo Dad she pulled
Couldn't take the st Arain
A saddle in the r Emain
[Instrumental]
