Well here I am again down in Montgomery Alabam

My luck ain't never been up but I'm used to it down

So all you people don't look at me and frown

I don't want to stay here and I'm just passing through your town
G+G FF C majorC G+G
And I just came back here to see an old stained window pane
G+G FF C majorC G+G
Before you tear it all down and bring out your crane
G+G FF C majorC D MajorD
And I wanted to see Montgomery in the rain

Around these streets and old houses a lot of changes I been through
D MajorD C majorC G+G D MajorD
From the top of the town to washing cars being down out and blue
G+G FF C majorC G+G
And I once met a woman here with ways like I never had seen
G+G FF C majorC G+G
We used to ramble between here and old New Orleans
G+G FF C majorC G+G
So I've just come back here to remember a joy and a pain
G+G FF C majorC G+G
And look back to a year through a tear in an old window pane
G+G FF C majorC D MajorD
And I wanted to see Montgomery in the rain

So you don't have to hide your baby, you don't have to go get no gun

And I'm not asking for nothing but my song in a cemetery wind
G+G FF C majorC G+G
'Cause if it's all right with you before I get back on my train
G+G FF C majorC G+G
I want to go out by Hank's tombstone and cry up a thunder storm chain
G+G FF C majorC D MajorD
'Cause I did want to see Montgomery in the rain
