E position, standard tuning.
It was late one Saturday evenin', after the sun went down
I said, late one Saturday evenin', after the sun went down
Yes, I lookin' for my baby, but she was not nowhere around
The wind was howlin', and the rain begin to fall
Lord, the wind was howlin', and the rain begin to fall
Yes, if she know how much I love her, Lord, she wouldn't have gone at all
Her picture's on my dresser, and her gown sit on my bed
Her picture's on my dresser, nightgown sit on my bed
Yes, I wonder, "Is my baby livin', Lordy, is my baby dead?"

So shine on, rising sun shine bright
I want you to keep right on shining, 'cause I sure can't sleep good at night
