There was a black heart beatin' in a cowboy's chest
          D
When the sun had cooked him through
          C                     D
And the tracks were tears on a cigarette
          C       G     D
When the sky had opened up again
             C        G       A    A
Looked like midnight, it was noon.
CHORUS:
 A                             D
Our true love'll leave you on your knees in the rain.
     C               D               A
Our true love will leave you in the rain.
 A                             D
Our true love'll leave you on your knees in the rain.
     C               D               A   A  A  A  A
Our true love will leave you in the rain.
VERSE:
  A
There was a black bird sittin' on top of the wire
         D
And the coal made the sky turn gray
           C                D
When the saints become the beggars
          G                   D
And they live down among the fray
                     G         A
And they dream of a golden day.
VERSE:
  A
There was a man on fire in the back of the church
                       D
Who speaks in a sorry tone
 C
Not because his lover died
         D
But she left him all alone
    G                   A    A
To sing with the holy stones.
CHORUS:
 A                             D
Our true love'll leave you on your knees in the rain.
     C               D               A
Our true love will leave you in the rain.
 A                             D
Our true love'll leave you on your knees in the rain.
     C               D               A   A  A  A  A
Our true love will leave you in the rain.
VERSE:
C                      G
I been breakin' down these ol' bones
        D                         A
I been waitin' for the fever to break
 C                    G
Does your house look like a home
            D                  A
When it's slidin' on into the lake?
 C            G
And when the darkness falls
               D                       A
Oh, you'll be ridin' on a southbound train
 C            G
And cut your coal to burn
     D                     A
And fill your heart with flame
CHORUS:
 A                             D
Our true love'll leave you on your knees in the rain.
     C               D               A
Our true love will leave you in the rain.
 A                             D
Our true love'll leave you on your knees in the rain.
     C               D               A   A  A  A
Our true love will leave you in the rain.

There was a black heart beatin' in a cowboy's chest
      D
If he even had a heart at all
     C               D
His mother died when he was born
     C          G         D
His daddy in a coal mine fall
          C           G         A
There's blood on the coal mine wall
