I Wish It Would Rain Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

Song Chords:

DTurning tricks on sunset, F♯mtwenty bucks a pop

 Some Bmout of town old business man or an Gundercover cop

DI'm living with a virus flowing Bmway down in my veins

GOh I wish it would raiDn

DI know you've heard my story or F♯mseen me on the street

BmJust another cracker gigolo dressed Gup like trick or treat

DNow you may want to judge me or Bmtreat me with disdain

GOh I wish it would Drain

GMemphis, Texas; Houston, Tennesee

 Man I'm Djust so turned around I don't know where I want to be

GThis California desert is driving me insane

DOh I wish it would Grain

DSo I've squandered my resistance, taking F♯many kind of drug

 I'd Bmsmoke or shoot or eat it, I'd Gdrink it from a jug

DI offer no excuses for your Bmsympathies to gain

GOh I wish it would Drain

GEverybody knows me as the kid

 I've Dmade it seven years still I don't know how I did

GI come from a long line of live and love in vain

DOh I wish it would Grain

DSo I've prayed to mother Mary, I've F♯meven seen a priest

 When the Bmangels come to get me, I Gknow I'll be released

 I'll Dleave this mean old desert bound for Memphis on that train

GOh I wish it would Drain (X2)
