Song: I Wish It Would Rain Tab
I Wish It Would Rain by Rodney Crowell
(Rodney Crowell)
D
Turning tricks on Sunset
F#m
Twenty bucks a pop
Bm
Some out of town old businessman
G
Or an undercover cop
D Bm
I'm living with the virus flowing way down in my veins
G D
Oh, I wish it would rain
Know you've heard my story
Or seen me on the street
Just another cracker gigolo
Dressed up like trick or treat
Now you may want to judge me
Or treat me with disdain
Oh, I wish it would rain
G
Memphis, Texas, Houston, Tennessee
D
Man I'm just so turned around
Don’t know where I want to be
G
This California desert is driving me Insane
D-G
Oh, I wish it would rain
So I've squandered my resistance
Taking any kind of drug
I'd smoke or shoot or eat it
I'd drink it from a jug
And I offer no excuses for your sympathies to gain
Oh, I wish it would rain
G
Everybody knows me as the kid
D
I've made it seven years and still don’t know how I did
G
I’ve come from a long line of live and love In vain
D-G
Oh, I wish it would rain
I've prayed to Mother Mary
I've even seen a priest
So when the angels come to get me
I know I'll be released
I'll leave this mean ol' desert bound for Memphis on a train
Oh, I wish it would rain
