Verse 

C 
Woke out of bed 
                       Gm 
Surrounded by a broken glass 
                   C 
Man, the morning's rough 
                     Gm 
'Cause grieving is a tines 
                       C 
This drink won't be my last 

 
         G               F 
Southern rain is here to stay 
        G                 F 
And you know I'm thinking of 
  G                 F 
A cloud of judgment day 
G             Am 
Southern rain 


Verse 

C 
Tumbling out 
                       Gm 
Out of love with her I swear 
                          C 
Even though the times are good

From looking at the past 
                    C 
She's not the one I loved

A cloud of judgment day

C 
Through the dust, Mr. Dusk

You refused to take me back

When I need, the future's bleed

You're alive in me

A cloud of judgment day
