I reached out 

      
one night and

Don't know why

a ride
             
On this lonely

        
   Kentucky ba

I've loved you

             
 much too long

             
;  my love's t

   
oo strong
        
To let you go,

      
 never knowing

           
   what went w

       
rong.

[Chorus]
             
Kentucky rain 

              
keeps pouring 

  
down
            
 And up ahead'

            
s another town
