Intro:

Verse
  E
I wish, I hope, I wonder
             A
Where you're at sometimes
             E
Is your back against the wall?
         A
Or just across the line
              E
Have you been standing in the rain
         A
Reciting nursery rhymes?
       E
Trying to recall
                       A
Some long lost kind of peace of mind
         D
Peace of mind
                 G
Try spending the night sometime
               D
All alone in a frozen room
                  A
Afterneath you've lain
                   E
Your Saddle in the rain
 
 
(Repeat Intro)
 
 
  E
I dreamed they locked God up
           A
Down in my basement
       E
And he waited there for me
             A
To have this accident
            E
So he could drink my wine
                  A
And eat me like a sacrament
    E
And I just stood there like I do
       A
Then I came and went
           D
I came and went
                 G
Like a bird in a foreign sky
              D
Couldn't even say good bye
                      A
Or come and share the pain
                   E
My Saddle's in the rain

Down in my bas ement

And eat me like a sacra ment

I saw a friend who doesn't know
               A
If I'm his fri end just yet
               Em
His eyes and m outh were widely open
          A
And his j aw was set
            Em
Like he'd f ell off a cliff
                      A
And hadn't hit the bo ttom yet
             Em
I wish he wo uldn't pull those things on me
            A
Without a n et
            D
Without a n et
                       G
I had him up to the ho use one time
                       D
And we was having a re al good time
                    A
Then he went and la in
                    Em
His saddle in the r ain

         Em                              A
In a lau ndromat not too far from the Al amo
         Em                               A
Sits a g irl who stole my records very lo ng ago
          Em                                   A
And she w ishes, wants and washes out those di rty clothers
          Em                                  A
As she sh uts her eyes and dreams about her O ne-Eyed Joe
           D
One-Eyed J oe
                   G
Car parked on a di rty road
                    D
Heaven knows the lo ad she pulled
                     A
Couldn't take the st rain
                  Em
A saddle in the r ain
