"Smokey Mountain Rain"
Ronnie Milsap



Intro; G, Bm7,C,G,C,G...

Em                                C
I thumbed my way from LA back to Knoxville
G					     D
I found out those bright lights aint where I belong
       Em                                  C
>From a phone booth in the rain I called to tell her
Am                    Am7                D
I've had a change of dreams I'm comin' home
           C                     Am7               D    C-D
But tears filled my eyes when I found out she was gone

CHORUS

G                             Bm
Smokey Mountain rain keeps on fallin'
          c            D    C-D
I keep on callin' her name
G                                 Bm
Smokey Mountain rain I'll keep on searchin'
               C            D
I can't go on hurtin' this way
       C                D               G
She's somewhere in the Smokey Mountain rain


I waved a diesel down outside a cafe'
He said that he was goin' as far as Gatlinburg
I climbed up in the cab all wet and cold and lonely
I wiped my eyes and told him about her
I've got to find her!
Can you make these big wheels burn?


Smokey Mountain rain keeps on fallin'
I keep on callin' her name
Smokey Mountain rain I'll keep on searchin'
I can't go on hurtin' this way
She's somewhere in the Smokey Mountain rain

Bridge-----------

Cmaj7
I can't blame her for lettin' go
Bm7
A woman needs someone warm to hold
Fmaj7
I feel the rain runnin' down my face
B                       D              C-D
I'll find her no matter what it takes!


+++Instrument solo over  G,Bm,C,D,C,D...

Smokey Mountain rain keeps on fallin'
I keep on callin' her name
Smokey Mountain rain I'll keep on searchin'
I can't go on hurtin' this way

repeat chorus and fade out
