This song is amazingly beautiful and simple, of which most beautiful things are.
Capo on 3 for this one.
Basically play a G chord and use your thumb to play this pattern for the intro

g)--------------- Twice g)---------- Once before every chord in this

C G D G
Will you comfort me, in my time of need?
C G D
Can you take away the pain of hurtful deeds?
C G D G
Cuz' when we need it most there's no rain at all
C G D
The dust just settles right there on the feed
Am C/B C
Will ya say to me a little rain's goin' come?
G D
When the sky can't offer none to me
Am C/B C
Cuz I will comfort you when my days are through
G D G Back to intro...
And I'll let your smile just off and carry me.
When the call comes down
I'll take the truck on into town
and buy whatever we can't seem to grow.
I work these hands to bleed
cuz I got mouths to feed
and I got fifteen dollars hid above the stove.
Will ya say to me a little rain's goin come?
When the sky can't offer none to me.
Cuz I will comfort you when my days are through
and I'll let your smile just off and carry me.
Cuz it ain't like it was
on back in those days.
When everyone would offer up a hand.
These old bones are worn
I've grown tiresome
I know my time is surely gonna come.
Will you comfort me in my time of need.
Can you take away the pain of hurtful deeds?
Cuz I will comfort you when my days are through
and I'll let your smile just off and carry me.
Lord we married young
stayed where we came from
And gave those children everything we had
Will you stay with me in my time of need?
Though it seems we had such little time for us.
Will ya say to me a little rain's goin come?
When the sky can't offer none to me.
Cuz I will comfort you when my days are through.
And I'll let your smile just off and carry me.
There it is! There are few great walk ups to chords and such during the chorus
but you guys are smart and can hear that stuff! Good luck and good playing!!
