                                               Gib Guilbeau

G              Am      D          G
Sitting inside looking out at the rain
G            Am        C           D
Thinking the world and I have gone insane
G                 Am   D       G
Wondering if I'll ever be here again
C       C/B Am          D
Picking and singing for nobody
C             Am         D    G      G C  G  C
Wishing I was home sweet home again
G                    Am
If I could ride that cloud
          D           G
That just flew by  my window
                    Am       C        D
And drift with the  wind out over the sea
G                  Am             D          G
And fall with  the rain into  the arms of my darling
C        C/B Am   D
Soothing all this misery
C           Am D       G
Driving the devil from me
Em
But the rain won't stop
    C
And there's no way to heaven
G                           D
No telling how long it will be
        Em
And the people that hear me
      C
Can't know what I'm feeling
Am                    C            D
What the wind and the rain telling me
    C    C/B Am     D      G
The wind and rains telling me
G                Am
Hear I am on the road
            D             G
It's been a year more in traveling
G            Am              C                D
Waking up to sounds of these cities and their sins
G                    Am          D          G
Can't sleep from the pain of the slow dying people
C       C/B Am          D
Picking and singing for nobody
C             Am               D     G    C  G   C  G
Wishing I was home again sweet home again
