VERSE 1:
G Bm/F# Em G/D Something's different, something's changed, and I don't know why Cmaj7 G D Even the old folks can't recall when it's ever been this hot and dry G Bm/F# Em G/D Dust devils whirlin' on the first day of July Cmaj7 Dsus4 D It's a hundred degrees at 10 am, and not a cloud up in the sky
VERSE 2:
G Bm/F# Em G/D We hardly had a winter, and had about a week of spring Cmaj7 G D Crops are burned up in the fields, there's a blanket of dust on everything G Bm/F# Em G/D The weather man is sayin' that there ain't no change in sight Cmaj7 Dsus4 D Lord, I've never been a prayin' man, but I'm sayin' one tonight
CHORUS:
G Em Bm G Em Bm D I'm prayin' for rain, I'm prayin' for rain Cmaj7 G Em D C Lord, I ain't never asked for much, and I don't mean to complain G Em Bm But I'm prayin' for rain
VERSE 3:
G Bm/F# Em G/D I ain't no wise man, but I ain't no fool, Cmaj7 G D And I believe that mother nature is taking us to school G Bm/F# Em G/D Maybe we just took too much and put too little back Cmaj7 Dsus4 D It isn't knowledge, it's humility we lack
CHORUS:
G Em Bm G Em Bm D I'm prayin' for rain, I'm prayin' for rain Cmaj7 G Em D C Lord, I ain't never asked for much, and I don't mean to complain G Em Bm But I'm prayin' for rain
BRIDGE:
Cmaj7 G Some people pray for victory, some people pray for peace Cmaj7 G Some people pray for extra time, some pray for sweet release Cmaj7 Em D Some pray for health and happiness, for riches un-renowned Cmaj7 D But none of this will matter much if the waters don't come down
CHORUS:
G Em Bm G Em Bm D I'm prayin' for rain, I'm prayin' for rain Cmaj7 G Em D C Lord, I ain't never asked for much, and I don't mean to complain G Em Bm But I'm prayin' for rain ENDING: G Em Bm I'm prayin' for rain (rpt.)
