IN MY TIME OF NEED
JOAN BAEZ
DARK CHORDS ON A BIG GUITAR
-------------------------
This is my first attempt, so constructive feedback is definitely welcome. I think this
is more or less right, although I've been playing transposed it three half steps higher,
so who knows! Either way, I love Joan's version of this song, and couldn't find the
chords anywhere, so here they are.
-------------------------
A F#m
Will you comfort me in my time of need?
D E
Can you take away the pain of a hurtful deed?
A F#m
'Cause when we need it most, there's no rain at all
D A E
And dust just settles right there on the fields
Bm D A
Will you say to me a little rain's gonna come?
F#m E
When the sky can't offer none to me
Bm D A
I will come for you when my days are through
F#m D A
And I'll let your smile just off and carry me
A
'Cause when the calm comes down
F#m
I'll take the truck on into town
D A E
And buy whatever we can't seem to grow
A
I work these hands till they bleed
F#m
'Cause I got mouths to feed
D A E
I got fifteen dollars hid above the stove
Bm D A
Will you say to me a little rain's gonna come?
F#m E
When the sky can't offer none to me
Bm D A
I will come for you when my days are through
F#m D A
And I'll let your smile just off and carry me
A F#m
'Cause it ain't like it was, oh back in those days
D A E
When everyone would offer up a hand
A F#m
These old bones are worn, I've grown tiresome
D A E
And I know my time is surely gonna come
Bm D A
Will you say to me a little rain's gonna come?
F#m E
When the sky can't offer none to me
Bm D A
I will come for you when my days are through
F#m D A
And I'll let your smile just off and carry me
A F#m
Lord, we married young and stayed where we came from
D A E
And gave those children everything we had
A F#m
Will you stay with me in my time of need?
D A E
It seems we had such little time for us
Bm D A
Will you say to me a little rain's gonna come?
F#m E
When the sky can't offer none to me
Bm D A
I will come for you when my days are through
F#m D A
And I'll let your smile just off and carry me
