Porchstep Lament

D Sun, bright sun D А D Don't you shine down on me. G Sky, blue sky D A D Why do you torture me? G The rains came down, the flood came up, D And washed way the house and barn G The sheriff came down, the signs went up, E A They sold away my home and farm. A What will I do? What will I do? D Bird, bluebird D A D Why do you sing for me? G Dog, hound dog D A D Do you think there's hope for me? G The rains came down, the flood came up, D And washed way the house and barn G The sheriff came down, the signs went up, E A They sold away my home and farm. A D What will I do? What will I do?
