Oh, I [G] wish it would rain and wash my [C] face [G] clean
I want to find some dark clouds to hide in [D] here
Oh, love in a [G] memory sparkles like [C] diamonds [G]
When the diamonds fall [D] they burn like [Em] tears [C]
When the diamonds fall [G] they [D] burn like [G] tears
{eoc}
[G] Once I had a love from the [C] Georgia [D] pines
who [Em] only cared for [G] me
I want to find [C] that love of [G] twenty-two
[Em] here at thirty-three [D]
I got a heart [G] on my right and [C] one on my [G] left
but [D] neither suits my [Em] needs
‘cause the [C] one I love [G] is [C] way out [G] west
and [D] he never will need [G] me
{soc}
Oh, I [G] wish it would rain and wash my [C] face [G] clean
I want to find some dark clouds to hide in [D] here
Oh, love in a [G] memory sparkles like [C] diamonds [G]
When the diamonds fall [D] they burn like [Em] tears [C]
When the diamonds fall [G] they [D] burn like [G] tears
{eoc}
I’m [G] gonna pack up my [C] two-steppin’ [G] shoes
And [D] head for the Gulf Coast [Em] plains
I want to [C] walk the [G] streets of my [C] old [G] hometown
Where [Em] everybody knows my [D] name
I’m gonna [G] ride the waves down to [C] Galveston [G]
When the [D] hurricanes blow [Em] in
‘cause the [C] Gulf Coast [G] water tastes [C] sweet as [G] wine
When your heart’s [Em] blowing [D] home in the [G] wind
{soc}
Oh, I [G] wish it would rain and wash my [C] face [G] clean
I want to find some dark clouds to hide in [D] here
Oh, love in a [G] memory sparkles like [C] diamonds [G]
When the diamonds fall [D] they burn like [Em] tears [C]
When the diamonds fall [G] they [D] burn like [G] tears
{eoc}
