COULDN’T STAND THE WEATHER
By: Stevie Ray Vaughan
Key: G

-7  7    -6 7    -5  5  -5    -5  -5 -5-6
Com-in' through this ah bus-‘ness of life,
 -7  7  -6 7 -5  5   -5  -5 5
Rare-ly time if I'm need-ed to
 -7   7   7  7   7     -5    -5    -5  5    -5
Ain't so fun-ny when things ain't feel-in' right,
 5    5   5    5     5   5  -5  -5    5
then dad-dy's hand helps to see me through
 -4   -5  6  -5  -6   -6    -5  5 -5
Sweet as sug-ar love won't wash a-way,
 -7   7   7      7  -5  -5   -5  5   -5
rain or shine, it’s al-ways here to stay
 7*   7     7    7   7   -5   -5   -4  -5  -5
All these years you ‘n’ I've spent to-geth-er,
 6   6    6   6    -7   -6    7   -6    7   -5
all this, we just could-n't stand the weath-er

 5  -5  -6    -5   -6   -5 -6  -5  5   -5
Like a train that stops at ev-‘ry sta-tion,
-7  7  -6 7  7    -5 5   5   -5  5 -5  -5
we all deal with trials and trib-u-la-tions
 -7    7    7   7   7   -5   -6  -5  5    -5
Fear hangs the fel-low that ties up his years,
5   5   5   5   5   5   5   -5   -5  -5   -3    
En-tan-gled in yel-low and cries all his tears
 -5   -5 6 -6 -5  -6  -5  5  -5
Chang-es come be-fore we can go,
  7*  7   7    7  7   -5   -5    5  -5
learn to see them be-fore we're too old
  7*    7   7   7  -5    -6    -5  5  -5 -5 
Don't just take me for try’in' to be heav-y,
6   6   -5*6   3    -7  -6 
Un-der-stand, it's time to 
 7 -6  7  -6 -5   5   -5  
get r-read-y for the storm
