Southern Rain

Cowboy Junkies

off Black-Eyed Man

1991

**************************************

The flies have quit their buzzing

A

Even Bear has stopped his barking

D

They all sense something brewing

E

Up the James and headed this way

D A Asus2: lick

Bobby sips his morning coffee

Says have you finished with the funnies

Looks like a storm is brewing honey

guess we'll have to stay in bed today

I've heard that into every life

D

A little of it must fall

A D

So she spends her evenings praying

E

For a little of that southern rain

D A Asus2

Marie was born in Macon Georgia

She met a west coast lawyer

He plucked that sweet magnolia

and carried her to the hills of West LA

She says I never thought I'd tire of a dollar

But this life has grown so hollow

Every nite there's lipstick on his collar

And every morning I wash it away

She heard that into every life......etc

Cars alive on city streets, of sparkling black water

Gm F#m E A

like waves beneath my window never break just roll away

F#m Bm E

Tonite this rain will be my lullabye

D E F#m Bm

These cars, my dreams to carry me home to stay

D Bm E A Asus2

The wipers beat a rhythm truck spray obscures my vision

But I'm closing in on my destination

Two more hours and I'll be at your door

And it will never cease to amaze me

How a little rain can drive folks crazy

When I'd trade all my clear skies glady

For your blue eyes crooked smile

and a steady downpour

I've heard that into every life

A little of it must fall

but you'll never catch me complaining

about too much of that southern rain

Asus lick: -------0-h-2--0-------b

--0-h-2---------0----g

or something like that...
