John Prine (born October 10, 1946 in Maywood, Illinois-died April 7, 2020 in Nashville, Tennessee) was an American country/folk singer-songwriter who has achieved widespread critical (and some commercial) success since the early 1970s.
The son of William Prine and Verna Hamm, his grandfather had played guitar with Merle Travis and he started playing guitar himself at 14 years old. He was a postman for 5 years and spent a couple of years in the army before starting his musical career in the Chicago area.

DEm I don't care if the sun don't shine AD But it better or people will wonder DEm And I dont mind if it ever quits rainin' AD Cept the kids are afraid of the thunder
Chorus: Bm Say sour grapes DAD You can laugh and stare BmA Say sour grapes DGD But I don't care
DEm I couldn't care less if I didn't have a friend AD Cept people would say I was crazy DEm And I wouldn't work 'cause I don't need money AD But the same folks would say I was lazy
(Chorus)

DEm I couldn't care less if she never come back AD I was gonna leave her anyway DEm And all the good times that we shared AD Don't mean a thing to day
