Appalacian Rain

• A

A                           D           A   F#m 
He came into to town in the early springtime 
                A     E           A 
to work with my daddy down in the mines 
                                           D    
It was hot in the summer when he said good-bye 
       A                      E         A    	  	  
and he left me a secret I can no longer hide... 	  
 	  	  	  	 D 	   A   F#m 
Now the only thing here that is welcoming me 
 	  	 A 	       E             A 	  
is a cold rainy morning and a Greyhound bus seat 
                                      D 
He just had to come back and try to explain 
A                         E      A 
Cry for your daughter Appalacian rain... 
 
D                     A            D 
Mountains of sorrow , mountains of pain 
A                        E      A  
you'll never give for my baby a name 
D                   A        D   Dsus2 
my family's honor , took it away 
A                           E      A 
cry for your daughter , Appalacian rain... 
 
VERSE 2 
A                                D         A       F#m  
I was washed in the blood in the river you filled 
                   A       E                 A 
Now the sound of a shotgun rings through the hills 
                                              D 
and the blood of her father runs through it's veins 
A                           E      A 
Cry for your daughter , Appalacian rain... 
 
CHORUS REPETED;Then the ending; 
D                     A           D     Dsus2 
Tears in the holler , tears of my shame  
A                           E      A 
Cry for your daughter , Appalacian rain...  
 
 
The intro (chord )is the same as the verse...A D A F#m A E A
