[D]Turning tricks on sunset, [F#m]twenty bucks a pop
Some [Bm]out of town old business man or an [G]undercover cop
[D]I'm living with a virus flowing [Bm]way down in my veins
[G]Oh I wish it would rai[D]n
[D]I know you've heard my story or [F#m]seen me on the street
[Bm]Just another cracker gigolo dressed [G]up like trick or treat
[D]Now you may want to judge me or [Bm]treat me with disdain
[G]Oh I wish it would [D]rain
[G]Memphis, Texas; Houston, Tennesee
Man I'm [D]just so turned around I don't know where I want to be
[G]This California desert is driving me insane
[D]Oh I wish it would [G]rain
[D]So I've squandered my resistance, taking [F#m]any kind of drug
I'd [Bm]smoke or shoot or eat it, I'd [G]drink it from a jug
[D]I offer no excuses for your [Bm]sympathies to gain
[G]Oh I wish it would [D]rain
[G]Everybody knows me as the kid
I've [D]made it seven years still I don't know how I did
[G]I come from a long line of live and love in vain
[D]Oh I wish it would [G]rain
[D]So I've prayed to mother Mary, I've [F#m]even seen a priest
When the [Bm]angels come to get me, I [G]know I'll be released
I'll [D]leave this mean old desert bound for Memphis on that train
[G]Oh I wish it would [D]rain (X2)
