The
chord progression to this song is:
·
G, A, C, D
On a boat out in the sea
Stood a laughing unicorn with gossamer
wings
On the shore about a mile or two away
The white knight rode is magic stallion
away
He was bearing no gift for the lady in
red
So the white knight took his silver
sword to his head
I don’t like the games that the kings
in the castles play
When I work a day I want my day’s pay
Out on the highway I ain’t got too many cares
When I feel like movin'
I stick my thumb in the air
Rain, rain - For the pleasure or the
pain - Rain, rain, rain, rain
Rain, rain - Am I ever gonna feel this way again?
Am I ever gonna
feel this way again?
I’m just a melancholy man
Livin'
with a guitar in my hand
It really doesn’t matter how I feel
I’ll probably never taste another home
cooked meal
Probably never taste another home
cooked meal
Ain’t
that a shame? - Never really learned how to play that game
Ain’t
that a shame?
Ain’t
that a shame? - I bet you wish you could say the same
I bet you wish that you could say the
same
Rain, rain - and the storm winds wail
rain, rain, rain, rain
Rain, rain - you make it hard to find
the trail
You make it kinda
hard to find the trail
On a boat out in the sea stood a laughing
unicorn
He was laughin'
at me
On the shore about a mile or two away
A sad man hung his head as he began to
pray
With the horn of the unicorn you hold
your fate in your hand
So the horn of the unicorn
It was meant for God and not for man
It was meant for God and not for man
Rain, rain, rain - And the storm winds
wail rain, rain, rain, rain
Rain, rain - You make it hard to find
the trail
You make it kinda
hard to find the trail
Rain, rain, rain - Thunder come and
chase my pain away
Lightning make me see the light of day
Rain, rain - Thunder come and chase my
pain away
Lightning make me see the light of day
Rain, rain - Thunder come and chase my
pain away
Rain, rain - Thunder come and chase my
pain away
