Rain For The Roses

Tom:
  D            D/B             G               D
It's 98 in the shade an' Mr Rose is rollin' hay.
               D/B           D
Eighty acres down an' ten to go.
D
NC
Clouds are buildin in the south
He knows time is runnin out
                              D/B     G
An'there goes that tractors radiator hose.
D
NC
There aint no tricks in his straw hat
He walks a quarter mile back.
                      D/B                 D
Miss Rose hears him slam that ol' screen door.
D
NC
What he sees as wasted time is a blessing in disguise
                        A               G      A
Oh  he's cussin' what she's been prayin' for.

[Chorus]
     D          D/F#     G
The day turned dark as night
            A                Bm
and in her eyes he saw the light
  G  D/F#  A
(FILL 1)
He hadn't taken the time to notice.
 D               D/F#   G             A              Bm
From Heaven  it poured down on that little old farm house
            G               D/F#                  A
Lord knows what to do when love needs time for growin'
  D  D/F#  G  A    D
(INTRO)
He sends   ra--in   for the Roses.
            D
She pulled down the window blinds
Even though the sun wasnt shinin
                            D/B                   D
The rain tapped out a love song on that old tin roof.
 D
Wrapped up in the covers  they held on to each other
                 A             G
Like new lovers  on their honeymoon

[Instrumental Break Chords]
  D   D/F#   G      A     Bm     A      G   D/F#     A

(He sends   ra--in
  D  D/F#  G  A    D
(INTRO)
The Lord sends   ra--in   for the Roses.
