- [This song is actually in F. These chords with the lyrics are the chordsthat Mary-Chapin Carpenter plays; she has a capo on the 3rd fret and playsit in D. John Jennings plays it in C with a capo at the fifth fret.]
- D A Em7 Em7 D A Em7 Em7[intro]
- D A Em7 Em7I can hear the rain come down, I can listen with my heart
- D A Em7 Em7I can see with both eyes closed in the darkG G (D) G G
- Sleep will come in just a while but till it does I chooseD Bm G GTo listen to the rain, it's the rhythm of the blues
- I walk along these streets of home that once belonged to usAnd now baby I walk alone and I am lost
- In the sound of my own footsteps on the avenuesI guess I'm only walking to rhythm of the blues
- F#m Bm G A F#m Bm G AI don't wanna hear another word spoken, I don't wanna see another tear shedF#m Bm G A C C G G G G
- I can't seem to fix what's broken, like this record baby in my headD A Em7 Em7 D A Em7 Em7
- [instrumental]Lonely looks as bad on me as lonely looks on you
- And still we keep on moving to the rhythm of the bluesI want a place to call my own, where you have never been
- I wanna look around and know you won't be coming back againOn some pretense paper-thin that I can see right throughYou come and go baby, like the rhythm of the blues
- You come and go baby, like the rhythm of the bluesYou come and go baby, like the rhythm of the blues...
- [end on G]TABLATURE
- [Note that the tab parts are written as if there is a capo at the fifthfret, since this is how John Jennings plays the song. I'm not sure that
- these are the _exact_ fingerings that Jennings uses, but they work.]INTRO:
- [This is played twice, more or less. The notes in parentheses are probablyplayed by the other guitar. The "strum" markers note places where there's
- a noticable strum, but I don't know on which notes.]C G Dm7 Dm7

- [If you're using a pick, play the double-stops with a slow sweep for thatarpeggio effect. Doesn't work as well with bare fingers.]
- [A variation: at the end of the second C measure, instead of 3-2-0, playit like the end of the second G measure (but on the D & G strings).]
