E A E
Everytime it rains Lord I stand at my window
E B
All I do is wring my hands and moan
E
Can you hear the thunder roar
E A E
Can you hear that Lonesome wind blow
E B E
Tell me baby why you been gone so long
E A E
Tell me baby why you been gone so long, been gone so long
E B
Tell me baby why you been gone so long
E A
Wolf was scratchin at my door Lordy don’t you hear that
E
lonesome wind blow
E B E
Tell me baby why you been gone so long
Somebody said that they thought they saw you way down in Reno
With a big ol man from San Antone
They tell me I’m a fool to cry for you but what do they know
Tell me baby why you been gone so long
Chorus
I guess there’s nothing left for me to do but go get stoned
Let the past paint pictures through my head
Might drink a fifth of Thunderbird and try to write a sad song
Tell me baby why you been gone so long.
Chorus:
