The Stanley Brothers – Its Raining Here This Morning (Guitar)

F
Oh it's raining, raining, raining here this morning

                                     C
As I sit in jail and hang my head in shame

C      F
With a smile I try to greet each early dawning

F                      C
But they've given me a number for my name

F
Many a little raindrops are falling close to me

F                                    C
Makes the streams and rivers just as muddy as can be

F
It's raining, raining, raining here this morning

F                  C
As the Mississippi flows on to the sea

F
How I wish that I could see my little darling

F                               C
And hold her in my arms just as before

F
I used to tell her every day I loved her

F                   C
But now she doesn't love me anymore

F
She knew that I was guilty of this one crime

F                                        C
And said that she'd be waiting there for me

F
But she has found somewhere else to wander

F                     C
Where the Mississippi flows on to the sea

F
Its raining, raining, raining here this morning

F                             C
And I am just as weary as can be

F
I wish that I could follow all the raindrops

F                    C                 F
Down the Mississippi toward the silver sea

F
But there's no way to prove that I'm not guilty

F                                C
So I will have to suffer all the shame

C      F
Go and tell her for me little raindrops

F                       C             F
That they've given me a number for my name
