Use capo on 2nd fret...



G, D, Am, C



G                                       D

 Like a deer in the headlights, I stood frozen in my tracks

        Am                                     C

And the weight of the news, It nearly broke my back

G                               D

 It was late september, and I remember oh so well

        Am                                     C

I put a rose in the bible and placed it on my shelf



            G          D

Now when it rains, it pours 

       Am                                       C

Wish I didnt know now the things I never knew before

            G          D

Now when it rains, it pours 

       Am                                       C

Wish I didnt know now the things I never knew before



G

 Back then when we were 17

D

 Time was on our side

  Am

Holes in our jeans and a pocket full of dreams

    C

The future was Friday night

             G

And we would hangout down by the riverbend

    D    

Singing our favorite songs

  Am

Laughin and drinkin, smokin and smilin

C

Now those days are gone



            G          D

Now when it rains, it pours 

       Am                                       C

Wish I didnt know now the things I never knew before

            G          D

Now when it rains, it pours

       Am                                     C

Wish I didnt know now the things I know for shore



G                                        D

 Like a deer in the headlights, I stood frozen in my tracks

        Am                                     C

And the weight of you not here nearly broke my back

        G 

And the tears they fell like a monsoon

     D

Underneath the cold fall moon

    Am

Somehow God put his hands on yur shoulders

C

Way too, way too soon



            G          D

Now when it rains, it pours

           Am                                     C

Wish I did not know now the things I never knew before

            G         D

Now when it rains, it pours

           Am

Wish I did not know now

No I didnt know now

              C

What I knew before



G, D, Am, D
