Chorus:
[G]Oh, I wish it would rain
G (9 fr.) G
wash my face clean
I wanna find some dark clouds
to hide in h[D]ere
Oh, the love in a m[G]emory
G (9 fr.) G
It sparkles like diamonds
When the diamonds fall
[D]Burns like t[Em-C]ears
When the diamonds [G]fall
[D]Burns like tears
G G (9 fr.) G
Once I had a love from the Georgia pines
who o[D]nly cared for [Em]me
Gonna f[C]ind that love of [G]22
here at [D]33
G G (9 fr.) G
Got a heart on my right and one on my left
but n[D]either suits my n[Em]eeds
Cause the o[C]ne I love is w[G]ay out west
and he n[D]ever will need me.
(Chorus)
Gonna pack up my two-steppin' shoes
and head for the Gulf Coast plains
Wanna walk the streets of my old hometown
Where everybody knows my name
Gonna ride the train down the Galvaston
When the hurricanes blow in
Cause that Gulf Coast water tastes sweet as wine
when your heart's blowin home in the wind
(Chorus)
