dark chords on a big guitar
– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –
this is my first attempt , so constructive feedback is definitely welcome . i think this
is more or less right , although i’ve been playing transposed it three half steps higher ,
so who knows! either way , i love joan’s version of this song , and couldn’t find the
chords anywhere , so here they are .

A F#m
will you comfort me in my time of need?
D E
can you take away the pain of a hurtful deed?
A F#m
’cause when we need it most , there’s no rain at all
D A E
and dust just settles right there on the fields
Bm D A
will you say to me a little rain’s gonna come?
F#m E
when the sky can’t offer none to me
Bm D A
i will come for you when my days are through
F#m D A
and i’ll let your smile just off and carry me
A
’cause when the calm comes down
F#m
i’ll take the truck on into town
D A E
and buy whatever we can’t seem to grow
A
i work these hands till they bleed
F#m
’cause i got mouths to feed
D A E
i got fifteen dollars hid above the stove
Bm D A
will you say to me a little rain’s gonna come?
F#m E
when the sky can’t offer none to me
Bm D A
i will come for you when my days are through
F#m D A
and i’ll let your smile just off and carry me
A F#m
’cause it ain’t like it was , oh back in those days
D A E
when everyone would offer up a hand
A F#m
these old bones are worn , i’ve grown tiresome
D A E
and i know my time is surely gonna come
Bm D A
will you say to me a little rain’s gonna come?
F#m E
when the sky can’t offer none to me
Bm D A
i will come for you when my days are through
F#m D A
and i’ll let your smile just off and carry me
A F#m
lord , we married young and stayed where we came from
D A E
and gave those children everything we had
A F#m
will you stay with me in my time of need?
D A E
it seems we had such little time for us
Bm D A
will you say to me a little rain’s gonna come?
F#m E
when the sky can’t offer none to me
Bm D A
i will come for you when my days are through
F#m D A
and i’ll let your smile just off and carry me
