Kid Rock - When It Rains

standard tuning

verse 1 :
G D
like a deer in the headlights , i stood frozen in my tracks
Em C
and the weight of the news , it nearly broke my back
G D
it was late september , and i remember oh so well
Em C
i put a rose in the bible and placed it on my shelf

chorus :
G D
now when it rains , it pours
Em C
wish i didnt know now the things i never knew before
G D
now when it rains , it pours
Em C
wish i didnt know now the things i never knew before

verse 2 :
G
back then when we were 17
D
time was on our side
Em
holes in our jeans and a pocket full of dreams
C
the future was friday night
G
and we would hangout down by the riverbend
D
singing our favorite songs
Em
laughin and drinkin , smokin and smilin
C
now those days are gone

G D
now when it rains , it pours
Em C
wish i didnt know now the things i never knew before
G D
now when it rains , it pours
Em C
wish i didnt know now the things i know for sure

G D
like a deer in the headlights , i stood frozen in my tracks
Em C
and the weight of you not here nearly broke my back
G
and the tears they fell like a monsoon
D
underneath the cold fall moon
Em
somehow god put his hands on your shoulders
C
way too , way too soon

G D
now when it rains , it pours
Em C
wish i didnt know now the things i never knew before
G D
now when it rains , it pours
Em
wish i didnt know now
no i didnt know now
C
what i knew before
