Everytime it rai[E]ns Lord I stand at my wind[A]ow [E]
[E]All I do is wring my hands and [B]moan
[E]Can you hear the thunder roar
[E]Can you [A]hear that Lonesome [E]wind blow
[E]Tell me baby [B]why you been gone so [E]long
[E]Tell me baby why you been gone so [A]long, been gone so [E]long
[E]Tell me baby why you been gone so [B]long
[E]Wolf was scratchin at my door Lordy don?t you [A]hear that
lonesome wind [E]blow
[E]Tell me baby [B]why you been gone so [E]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:
