Artist: Melissa Etheridge Title: An Unexpected Rain Album: The Awakening Words & Music by Melissa Etheridge INTRO: Am7 Fadd9 Am7 Fadd9 First time I saw you Back in 1982 An L.A bar I’ve come so far In my kansas dancing shoes I’m just a singer And i’m looking for a song Do you wanna sing along? Two greyhounds later And I’m feeling alright I’ve got to have you And it must be tonight Come on back to my place Well it’s really just a room But I’ll be making some money soon SOLO: Am7 Fadd9 (over duration) Goodbye and thank you Oh my number yeah - please phone Two or three weekends On the 405 alone You say come on and stay And when you sing down at the bar It will not be so far And I try to do my best I never meant to hurt no one I was waiting for my break That I knew one day would come And I plug in my guitar And I’d look out across the room And I’d dig into my heart And I try to sing the truth And I know I did my best I never meant to hurt no one SOLO: Am7 Fadd9 (over duration) As I recall Back in 1982 I never said goodbye or why I just left a note for you Then one night I saw you Across the road across the dark A shameful spear into my heart Your look was haunting An unexpected pain I am so sorry For the unexpected rain The sadness that you kissed The fresh scars on your wrist I can’t make it go away........ And I try to do my best I never meant to hurt no one I was waiting for my break That I knew one day would come And I plug in my guitar And I’d look out across the room And I’d dig into my heart And I try to sing the truth And I know I did my best I never meant to hurt... no one no one no one Goodnight.. ladies Goodnight I’m gonna leave you now Goodnight ladies.... Goodnight I’m gonna leave you now Gonna leave you now.. Ladies... goodnight Gonna leave ya gonna leave ya now Ohh Goodnight Ohhhhhhhhhh........
