Recorded by John Prine on the album Storm Windows 1980 G5 D5 C5 Rain came down on the tin roof hardly a sound was left D5 C5 D5 G5 D5 from the birthday the kitchen light fell asleep on the bedroom floor G5 D5 C5 D5 Me and her were talking softer than all the time before I lost her C5 D5 G5 her picture sat on top of the chest-of-drawers C5 D5 G5 C5 G5 D5 Db5 CHORUS: ONE RED ROSE IN THE BIBLE PRESSED BETWEEN THE HOLY ALPHABET C5 D5 G5 C5 PROBABLY WOULDN'T BELIEVE YOU IF YOU TOLD ME BUT WHAT I NEVER KNEW D5 G5 C5 I NEVER WILL FORGET G5 D5 C5 D5 Rainy nights get dark real early her dress was soft and her hair was curly C5 D5 G5 D5 G5 D5 we danced around the table to the old banjo rainy nights were made for lovers C5 D5 C5 D5 G5 we lay there still beneath the covers and I ain't never felt like that before REPEAT CHORUS: INSTRUMENTAL: verse chords REPEAT CHORUS ONCE MORE: For the D Db C in the Chorus I alternate by using a D chord then the Db sliding the same formation down 1 fret twords the nut then the C chord. The second time I use a walk down by strumming the D chord then hit the d string (4th string) open then 5th string 4th fret the form the C chord and hit the 5th string 3rd fret not before playing the chord. Going from the Verse to Chorus I use a standard walk from the G chord to the C chord ANY SUGGESTIONS WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED.
