He came into to town in the early springtime
A E A
to work with my daddy down in the mines
D
It was hot in the summer when he said good-bye
A E A
and he left me a secret I can no longer hide...
D A F#m
Now the only thing here that is welcoming me
A E A
is a cold rainy morning and a Greyhound bus seat
D
He just had to come back and try to explain
A E A
Cry for your daughter Appalacian rain...
D A D
Mountains of sorrow , mountains of pain
A E A
you'll never give for my baby a name
D A D D2
my family's honor , took it away
A E A
cry for your daughter , Appalacian rain...

A D A F#m
I was washed in the blood in the river you filled
A E A
Now the sound of a shotgun rings through the hills
D
and the blood of her father runs through it's veins
A E A
Cry for your daughter , Appalacian rain...
CHORUS REPETED Then the ending
D A D D2
Tears in the holler , tears of my shame
A E A
Cry for your daughter , Appalacian rain...
