E A E

Everytime it rains Lord I stand at my window

E B

All I do is wring my hands and moan

E

Can you hear the thunder roar

E A E

Can you hear that Lonesome wind blow

E B E

Tell me baby why you been gone so long

Chorus

E A E

Tell me baby why you been gone so long, been gone so long

E B

Tell me baby why you been gone so long

E A

Wolf was scratchin at my door Lordy don’t you hear that

E

lonesome wind blow

E B E

Tell me baby why you been gone so long

Somebody said that they thought they saw you way down in Reno

With a big ol man from San Antone

They tell me I’m a fool to cry for you but what do they know

Tell me baby why you been gone so long

Chorus

I guess there’s nothing left for me to do but go get stoned

Let the past paint pictures through my head

Might drink a fifth of Thunderbird and try to write a sad song

Tell me baby why you been gone so long.

Chorus:
