| chords THE RAIN My dad sold his car in 1972 Yeah he thought that he was headed to Vietnam But the sores on his hands and his eyes got him the pardon And he walked out clear, instead he met my mom And I was brought up among the files In sleepless seasons and murder trials Yeah I learned to live a good life you gotta shoulder some pain But it's raining tonight, yeah it's raining tonight, And man I love to hear it rain My friend and me stayed up and talked about his addiction Thirty sober days and the pain in his legs wont stop He said it feels so damn good to get my hands back on some ambition I would've been famous now had I not burned those years right off And I said, Some rich men take their own lives And some blind men take a beautiful wife If you're working hard you know you got a right to complain But it's raining tonight, my friend it's raining tonight And man I love to hear it rain I love to hear it rain I love to hear the rain I love to hear that old soft sound just washing away the day I spent some time in Hollywood, I spent all my money So I came back up to stay at my parent's house You know I only ever struggle with the things that I don't know I'm gonna spend my whole life trying to figure all that out And I've always felt just a little strange A little bit too old for my face You know sometimes I get the feeling I'll be first to the grave But it's raining tonight, yeah it's raining tonight And man I love to hear it rain |
