INTRO: D
[D]Every time it rains Lord I [G]run to my w[D]indow
All I do is ring my hands and [A]moan
The [D]wolf is scratchin' at my door and I can [G]hear the lonesome [D]wind moan
Tell me baby [A]why you been [G]gone [D]so long
CHORUS:
[D]Tell me baby why you been gone so [G]long you been gone so [D]long now
Tell me baby why you been gone [A]so long
Well the [D]wolf he scratches at my door and I can [G]hear the lonesome [D]wind moan
Tell me baby [A]why you been [G]gone s[D]o long
Someone said they thought they saw you roarin' down in Reno
With a little girl from San Antone
They say I'm a fool to pine for you hey but what do they know
Tell me baby why you been gone so long
CHORUS
Nothin' I wanna do oh I guess I could get stoned
And let that past paint pictures on my head
I could kill a fifth of Thunderbird, write myself a sad song
Tell me baby why you been gone so long
CHORUS
[D]Tell me baby [A]why you been [G]gone so [D]long
[D]Every time it rains Lord I [G]run to my w[D]indow
All I do is ring my hands and [A]moan
The [D]wolf is scratchin' at my door and I can [G]hear the lonesome [D]wind moan
Tell me baby [A]why you been [G]gone [D]so long
CHORUS:
[D]Tell me baby why you been gone so [G]long you been gone so [D]long now
Tell me baby why you been gone [A]so long
