Cowboy Junkies are a Canadian alt-country band formed by three siblings from the Timmins entertainment family (Margo Timmins, vocals; Michael Timmins, songwriter & guitars; Peter Timmins, drums) plus Alan Anton on bass. The group formed in Toronto in 1986. The band's name was simply a random choice as they approached their first ever gig, but it has come to perfectly represent their sound. (Some sources may credit Townes Van Zandt's song "Cowboy Junkies Lament" as the source of the band's name

Southern Rain Cowboy Junkies off Black-Eyed Man 1991
**************************************
The flies have quit their buzzing A
Even Bear has stopped his barking D
They all sense something brewing E
Up the James and headed this way DAAsus2: lick
Bobby sips his morning coffee Says have you finished with the funnies Looks like a storm is brewing honey guess we'll have to stay in bed today
I've heard that into every life D
A little of it must fall AD
So she spends her evenings praying E
For a little of that southern rain DAAsus2
Marie was born in Macon Georgia She met a west coast lawyer He plucked that sweet magnolia and carried her to the hills of West LA
She says I never thought I'd tire of a dollar But this life has grown so hollow Every nite there's lipstick on his collar And every morning I wash it away
She heard that into every life......etc
of this verse, but ......>
Cars alive on city streets, of sparkling black water GmF#mEA
like waves beneath my window never break just roll away F#mBmE
Tonite this rain will be my lullabye DEF#mBm
These cars, my dreams to carry me home to stay DBmEAAsus2
The wipers beat a rhythm truck spray obscures my vision But I'm closing in on my destination Two more hours and I'll be at your door
And it will never cease to amaze me How a little rain can drive folks crazy When I'd trade all my clear skies glady For your blue eyes crooked smile and a steady downpour
I've heard that into every life A little of it must fall but you'll never catch me complaining about too much of that southern rain
