[Intro]
G7
[Verse]
C/G
This road may flood tonight
Em
If I heard the weatherman right
F
I ain't seen a cloud in sight
G
The whole damn day
[Verse]
C/G
There ain't a soul in this old coal town
Em
It's quiet on the courthouse grounds
F
Just empty cars with windows down -
G
I guess it's on its way
[Verse]
C/G
May have to get myself a boat
Em
A couple paddles and a good raincoat
F
Dig myself out the deepest moat
G
Keep it all at bay
[Verse]
C/G
And last time it rained, I didn't sleep for weeks
Em
Worrying on those rising creeks
F
Gravel bars and busted beach
G
And mountains made of slate
[Verse]
C/G
Guess you could say it's been a haunted life
Em
I use to have a Christian wife
F
And I lost her like a pocket knife
G
Sliding down the bank
[Verse]
C/G
But you know, this road's been a pretty good friend
Em
I'vе drove it every night sincе then
F
I run her 'round every bend
G
Never sure if I'm awake
[Verse]
C/G
And it's a heartache
Em
Nothing but a heartache
F
Hits you when it's too late
G
Hits you when you're down
[Verse]
C/G
And it's a fool's game
Em
Nothing but a fool's game
F
Standing in this cold rain
G
Dancing like a clown
