Elvis Presley – Kentucky Rain (Guitar)

C            G          C            F 
Seven lonely days and a dozen towns ago, 

  C               F                  C     C7
I reached out one night and you were gone.

F                    G                C             Am
Don't know why you'd run, what you're running to or from, 

D7                                G7  
all I know is I want to bring you home. 

       C              G     C              F
So I'm walking in the rain, thumbing for a ride on this 

C         F     C         C7
lonely Kentucky backroad.

     F                  G         C             Am
I've loved you much too long and my love's too strong 

   D7                                  G7    Fmaj7
to let you go, never knowing what went wrong.

D7                          C Bm Em                     Am
Kentucky rain keeps pouring down and up ahead's another town

G    F    Em F       C    Fmaj7    C          Em     Am  Em  C
that I'll go walking thru with the rain in my shoes,

Am       Am7 F   G7                   C      Em  F 
searchin for you in the cold Kentucky rain,

       G7            C
in the cold Kentucky rain.

C                G             C                F 
Showed your photograph to some old gray bearded men 

        C             F              C      C7 
sitting on a bench outside a gen'ral store.

           F               G               C             Am
They said "Yes, she's been here" but their mem'ry wasn't clear, 

       D7                            G7
was it yesterday, no, wait the day before.

     C            G           C
So I fin'ly got a ride with a preacher man who

F                 C                    F    C      C7
asked: "Where you bound on such a dark afternoon?"

      F                 G          C
As we drove on thru the rain as he listened 

    Am             D7                                  G7   Fmaj7
I explained and he left me with a prayer that I'd find you.

D7                          C Bm Em                     Am
Kentucky rain keeps pouring down and up ahead's another town

G    F    Em F       C    Fmaj7    C          Em     Am  Em  C
that I'll go walking thru with the rain in my shoes,[Am][Em][C]

Am       Am7 F   G7                   C      Em  F
searchin for you in the cold Kentucky rain,

       G7            C    Em  F   G7
