John Mellencamp - A life full of rain

^Am A life full of rain ^{Am/G D7/F#} Coming down on my sho^Fulders ^{E7 Am} A life full of rain ^{Am/G D7/F#} Here in a room where no one c^Fares ^{E7 Am} I'm not wanted h^Am/Gere ^D7/F# I got no place to g^Fo ^{E7 Am} I've found all is empty ^{Am/G D7/F#} In a life full of r^Fain

^G Your sky is never cl^Amear A^Fmaj7nd you can hear that thunder ^G You know that means tr^Amouble The kind of tr^Fmaj7ouble that won't disappear ^G So you ask for forg^Amiveness ^Fmaj7 And you know there's none coming ^Am A life full of rain ^{Am/G Fmaj7} And the forecast is severe

^Am The gravel roads ^{Am/G D7/F#} That lie stretched out^F bеfore y^E7ou ^Am They are thе roads ^{Am/G D7/F#} That you've gone down bef^Fore ^{E7 Am} Goddamn it,^Am/G you didn't ask ^D7/F# You didn't ask to come h^Fere ^{E7 Am} So you curse your own moth^Am/Ger ^D7/F# For the day that you were b^Forn

^G It's all been a trick ^{Am F} A little sleight of hand ^G Like the clown in the circ^Amus Who tells a st^Fory but no one understands ^G So you disappear into the s^Amolitude ^F And you go into the shadows ^Am Of a life full of rain ^{Am/G Fmaj7} With no dry spot to stand

^Am There's a blue-eyed world ^{Am/G D7/F#} That said it once loved y^Fou ^{E7 Am} But that was in your youth ^{Am/G D7/F#} Such a long, long t^Fime ago ^{E7 Am} As the days went by ^{Am/G D7/F#} With your pride walking bes^Fide you ^{E7 Am} Pride you could not swallow ^{Am/G D7/F#} And refused to let go^F

^G So here you ^Amare ^F Stuck in a world of your own ego ^G A world where there's no rum^Amors ^F Of other lost souls ^G Who've turned into gh^Amosts And float s^Fadly through the evening ^Am And you thought you were ex^Am/Gempt From a l^Fmaj7ife full of rain,^Am a life full of rain ^Am/G That's coming d^Fmaj7own on your shoulders
