The rain came down on the tin roof
C D
Hardly a sound was left from the birthday party

The kitchen light

Fell asleep

Picture sat on top

C D G
One red rose in the Bible

Pressed between the Holy alphabet

Probably wouldn't believe me
G
If I told you
C
But what I never knew
D G C D G
I never will forget

Rainy nites get dark real early

Her dress was soft

And her hair was curly

We danced around the table

To the old banjo

Rainy nites were made for lovers
C
We lay there still
D
Beneath the covers
C D
And I ain't never felt
G
Like that before
