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:
