VERSE 1: 
          G 
i miss my mama 
          D 
i miss my dad 
          A 
i miss my brother 
             D 
oh i miss em bad 
          G 
i miss my house 
          D 
i miss my wife 
       A                             D 
most of all i think i missed what i used 
           D7 
to call my life 

Refr?o -------------
    G 
before this all got crazy 
     D              
before i lost all control 
     A                                D 
before it felt like someone tied my soul up 
                 D7 
to the whipping pole 
            D              
there's a hole in the bottom  
 G             D 
of my cowboy shoes 
       D 
it's been raining here all evening 
            A                    D 
i got the lonesome north platte blues

VERSE 2: 
              G 
it's raining buckets now 
               D 
the crowds are gone 
             A 
my feet are muddy 
         D 
and i'm alone 
            G 
i start to tremble 
              D 
and i almost pray 
  A                    
lord let this roll on by 
      D                  D7 
and bring me some sunny day 
 
(chorus) 
             D 
it's been raining here all evening 
            A                     G 
i got the lonesome north platte blues
