[Verse 1]
G D
I was born on a mountaintop
G D
Under miles of snow
G D
Where the sun is a virtue
G D
Where my father did wrong
 
[Verse 2]
G D
I left as a scholar
G D
In the emperor's clothes
G D
I'm sittin' sleepin' on my back porch
Em G
Hopin' that I'll drive myself off the bay home
 
[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
G D
Isn't it a joke out here?
G D
I can hear them laughing now
G D
I wouldn't be at this open mic
G D
If I thought there'd be a crowd
 
[Verse 4]
G D
It's not that different
G D
Sitting drenched in my apartment
G D
Looking out at the starlit sky
Em G
I thought I'd be staring at the clouds

G D
Didn't it rain last night?
G D
Didn't it rain?
G D
Didn't it rain last night?
Em G
Didn't it thunder?

[Verse 5]
G D
Swimming in a lake last night
G D
Try to reach the muddy floor
G D
Twenty feet below the surface now
G D
There's probably twenty more
 
[Verse 6]
G D
I got a bit of air at the top
G D
Before I go back down
G D
You have to think about how to swim
Em G
But you never have to think about how to drown
 
[Chorus]

Didn't it rain last night?

Oh, I wish I had a rope to swing on

Oh, I wish I had the mountain air

I can feel it in my bones

This lonesome highway goes nowhere
