Smoky Mountain Rain

by Ronnie Milsap

Em                                 C

I thumbed my way from L.A. back to Knoxville

        G                                     D7

I found out those bright lights ain't where I belong

       Em                                  C

From a phone booth in the rain I called to tell her

Am                                     D7

I've had a change of dreams I'm coming home

          C                                       D7

But tears filled my eyes when I found out she was gone

G                            Bm

Smoky Mountain Rain keeps on falling

          C           D7

I keep on calling her name

G                                Bm

Smoky Mountain Rain I'll keep on searching

              C            D7

I can't go on hurting this way

      C                D7             G

She's somewhere in the smoky mountain rain

I waved a diesel down outside a cafe

        G                        D7

He said he was going as far as Gatlinburg

   Em                               C

I climbed up in the cab all wet and lonely

Am                                 D7

I wiped my eyes and told him about her

     C                                             D7

I've got to find her can you make these big wheels burn

Repeat #2

I can't blame her for letting go

A woman needs someone warm to hold

I feel the rain running down my face

D7

I'll find her no matter what it takes
