[Intro]
G Em D G Em D
[Chorus]
D Em
He wasn’t built for rain
A D
Out on the Texas plains
Em
He couldn’t rope or ride
A D
He never slept outside
G#dim
Although he seemed to care
A7 D
He wasn’t really there
G
His heart was on the train
A D
He wasn’t built for rain
[Verse 1]
Bm D
And when it came to lovin’
G D
His heart was on the fence
G
She gave it all for nothing
A D
Hasn’t seen him since
Bm D
She thought he was a man
G D
But he’s just a boy it seems
G
Afraid to face tomorrow
A D G A G Em D
He’s living in his dreams
[Chorus]
D Em
He wasn’t built for rain
A D
Out on the Texas plains
Em
He couldn’t rope or ride
A D
He never slept outside
G#dim
Although he seemed to care
A7 D
He wasn’t really there
G
His heart was on the train
A D
He wasn’t built for rain
[Verse 2]
Bm D
She thought she understood him
G D
Like no one else could do
G
Now he’s gone and left her
A D
Her happy times are through
Bm D
She tried to build a shelter
G D
To save him from the storm
G
Her love was like a fire
A D
That could keep a cowboy warm
[Chorus]
D Em
He wasn’t built for rain
A D
Out on the Texas plains
Em
He couldn’t rope or ride
A D
He never slept outside
G#dim
Although he seemed to care
A7 D
He wasn’t really there
G
His heart was on the train
A D
He wasn’t built for rain
[Outro]
G A D G A Em G D
He wasn’t built for rain
