A LITTLE RAIN  (Tom Waits/K. Brennan)  [guitar arrangment by AL#13]
(from a live version)

capo on 1st 

D
          D                   G                  D
Where the Ice Man's mule...is parked outside the bar
        D                                   D         A 
Where a man with missing fingers...plays a strange guitar
         D                              D         A
And the German dwarf...dances with the butcher's son
           D      G          D       A
Tonight a little rain never hurt no one

         D                             G                D
They're dancing on the roof...and the ceiling's coming down
        D                            D        A 
And I sleep with my shovel...and my leather gloves
       D                         D         A
And a little trouble...makes it worth the going
           D      G          D       A
Tonight a little rain never hurt no one

        D                  G         D
Oh the world is round...so I'll go around
     D         G              G
You must risk something that matters
       D                           G        D
Oh my hands are strong...I'll take any man here
         D                      G         A
If it's worth the going...it's worth the ride

        D                       G              D
She was 15 years old...and she never seen the ocean
     D                           D   A 
She climbed into a van...with a vagabond
         D                          D        A
And the last thing she said was "I love you mom."
           D      G          D       A
Tonight a little rain never hurt no one
       D      G          D       A
And a little rain never hurt no one
