[Verse 1]
G D Em D
You never see it coming, it happens all of a sudden
Am C G D
And when it finally hits you, it's too late
G D Em D
He just sat there in the silence, on his own private island
Am C G D
I wasn't ready for the storm about to break
Em C D
Yesterday, there was no trace of trouble
Em C D
Now he's given up more than I can take
[Chorus]
C G D Em
He said hold on tight, it's gonna be a heck of a night
C D G D
Especially when you hear what I've got to say
C G
And when he said, I don't love you
D Em
The first tear broke through
C
Now it's comin' down
Am G D
Like a Tennessee rain
[Verse 2]
G D Em D
Nobody showed me, nobody told me
Am C G D
What to do when the story turned out wrong
G D Em D
Or how a heart does its mending, without the perfect ending
Am C G D
The one I always thought would come along
Em C D
He had his own ideas of where this love was going
Em C D
He wasn't leaving it up to the hands of fate
[Chorus]
C G D Em
He said hold on tight, it's gonna be a heck of a night
C D G D
Especially when you hear what I've got to say
C G
And when he said, I don't love you
D Em
The first tear broke through
C
Now it's comin' down
Am G D
Like a Tennessee rain
G D Em D Am C G D
[Chorus]
C G D Em
He said hold on tight, it's gonna be a heck of a night
C D G D
Especially when you hear what I've got to say
C G
And when he said, I don't love you
D Em
The first tear broke through
C
Now it's comin' down
Am G D
Like a Tennessee rain
[Outro]
C Am G
It's comin' down harder than a Tennessee rain
