CAPO 2
INTRO: D, D/B, G
It's 9[D]8 in the shade an' Mr Rose is rollin' hay.
Eighty acres do[D/B]wn an' ten to [D]go.
NC D
Clouds are buildin in the south,
He knows time is runnin out,
An'there goes that tractors ra[D/B]diator h[G]ose.
NC D
There aint no tricks in his straw hat
He walks a quarter mile back.
Miss Rose hears him sl[D/B]am that ol' screen d[D]oor.
NC D
What he sees as wasted time is a blessing in disguise
Oh, he's cussin' what sh[A]e's been prayin'[G] for.[A]
(CHORUS)
The d[D]ay turned d[D/F#]ark as ni[G]ght,
and in her e[A]yes he saw the li[Bm]ght,
G D/F# A (FILL 1)
He hadn't taken the time to notice.
F[D]rom Heaven, it p[D/F#]oured d[G]own on that li[A]ttle old farm h[Bm]ouse
Lord knows w[G]hat to do when l[D/F#]ove needs time for gro[A]win'
D D/F# G A D (INTRO)
He sends ra--in for the Roses.
She pulled d[D]own the window blinds
Even though the sun wasnt shinin
The rain tapped out a love s[D/B]ong on that old tin ro[D]of.
W[D]rapped up in the covers, they held on to each other,
Like new lovers, [A]on their honey[G]moon
(CHORUS)
Instrumental Break Chords: D, D/F#, G, A, Bm
[A]Lord knows w[G]hat to do when l[D/F#]ove needs time for g[A]rowin'
(He sends [D] [D/F#]ra--i[G]n [A] )
D D/F# G A D (INTRO)
