Intro
A# F D# x4
[Verse 1]
A# D#
well i’m huntin’ down the rabbit holes i saw out by the lake
A# F
you told me they grow farther from the water when it rains
A# D#
i met a man who promised everyone that he had changed
A# F
but there he was by the river with a rock attached to his waist
[Chorus 1]
D# F D# F
if it rains the crops will grow twice as big
D# F A#
if it doesn’t rain we’ll live
[Verse 2]
A# D#
with an apple in my mouth i bit off more than i can chew
A# F
but wash it down with whiskey and i’m left thinking of you
A# D#
when maple leaves are autumn green there’s nothing i can do
A# F
but wait for them to change into something with value
[Chorus 2]
D# F D# F
so when my leaves grow dark and old
D# F D# F
they’ll be kept alive by the stories told

because every word has kept me warm
D# F A#
even when it’s as cold as this

and i’m not alone
D# F A#
your face is as white as snow
[Chorus 3]
D# F D# F
when you said if it rains the crops will grow twice as big
D# F D# F
if it doesn’t rain i wont give a shit
