Early Summer Rain

Tom: D

  G                   D
I dream with my eyes open
  G                 D
I see with my eyes closed
  G                  Bm
I watch through many windows
A
Heaven only knows
     G              D
Some words can't be spoken
      G                  Bm
Some things can't be explained
D                G
Out when it gets lonesome
                    D
In the early summer rain
G                   D
Black crow he's the joker
G                    D
Red rail hawk's the king
G                    Bm
Diamondback he's the tax man
A
He don't miss a thing
    G                  D
Out where there's no forgiveness
    G                  Bm
Out where's there's no blame
D                    G
Out where it's gets lonesome
                     D
In the early summer rain
       A
There's wind down in these ditches
        G
There's red dust on the rye
            D                 G
But there's storm up on the ridges
          D
There's a silver tear in my eyes
A
All I know is you my friend
G
Will  not see my pain
D                  G
Out where it gets lonesome
                    D   G
In the early summer rain
          G                       D
There's a red flying horse by the roadside
G                   D
Spreading his wings again
G                     Bm
Me and him are gonna take a little ride
A
Hope we catch a good tail wind
G                     D
Take me to the purple mountain
G                     Bm
Where nobody knows my name
D                 G
Out where it gets lonesome
                     A
In the early summer rain
       A
There's wind down in these ditches
        G
There's red dust on the rye
           D                 G
But there's storm up on the ridges
          D
There's a silver tear in my eyes
A
All I know is you my friend
G
Will  not see my pain
D                  G
Out where it gets lonesome
                    D
In the early summer rain
A
All I know is you my friend
G
Will  not see my pain
D                  G
Out where it gets lonesome
                    D   G   D
In the early summer rain
