Saddle in the Rain John Prine
[Intro]
[Em]
[Verse]
[Em]I wish, I hope, I wonder
Where you're at so [A]metimes
Is y [Em]our back against the wall?
Or just ac [A]ross the line
Have you been sta [Em]nding in the rain
Reciting nursery rh [A]ymes
Trying to re [Em]call some long lost kind of pe [A]ace of mind
Peace of m [D]ind
Try spending the n [G]ight sometime
All alone in a fr [D]ozen room
Afterneath you've l [A]ain
Your saddle in the r [Em]ain
[Instrumental]
[Em]
[Em]I dreamed they locked God up
Down in my bas [A]ement
And he wai [Em]ted there for me
To have this acci [A]dent
So he could dr [Em]ink my wine
And eat me like a sacra [A]ment
And I just st [Em]ood there like I do
Then I came and w [A]ent
I came and w [D]ent
Like a bird in a for [G]eign sky
Couldn't even s [D]ay goodbye
Or come and share the p [A]ain
My Saddle's in the r [Em]ain.

[Em]
[Em]I saw a friend who doesn't know
If I'm his fri [A]end just yet
His eyes and m [Em]outh were widely open
And his j [A]aw was set
Like he'd f [Em]ell off a cliff
And hadn't hit the bo [A]ttom yet
I wish he wo [Em]uldn't pull those things on me
Without a n [A]et
Without a n [D]et
I had him up to the ho [G]use one time
And we was having a re [D]al good time
Then he went and la [A]in
His saddle in the r [Em]ain

[Em]
In a lau [Em]ndromat not too far from the Al [A]amo
Sits a g [Em]irl who stole my records very lo [A]ng ago
And she w [Em]ishes, wants and washes out those di [A]rty clothers
As she sh [Em]uts her eyes and dreams about her O [A]ne-Eyed Joe
One-Eyed J [D]oe
Car parked on a di [G]rty road
Heaven knows the lo [D]ad she pulled
Couldn't take the st [A]rain
A saddle in the r [Em]ain
[Instrumental]
