Intro: C
C G
The rain came down on the tin roof
F G
Hardly a sound was left from the birthday party
F
The kitchen light
G
Fell asleep
C
On the bedroom floor
C G
Me and her were talking softer
F
all the time
G
Before I lost her
F G
Picture sat on the top
C
Of the chest of drawers
Chorus:
F G C
One red rose in a Bible
F C G
Pressed between a Holy alphabet
F G
Probably wouldn't believe you
C
If you told me
F
But what I never knew
G C F G C
I never will forget
C G
Rainy nights get dark real early
F
Her dress was soft
G
her hair was curly
F G
We danced around the table
C
To the old banjo
C G
Rainy nights were made for lovers
F
We lay there still
G
Beneath the covers
F G
And I ain't never felt
C
Like that before
(Repeat Chorus)
