C                         G 
We wrote our names in the tunnel back when 
     F                           Dm  
Coos Bay was as far away as we?d ever been 
F                      Dm 
Pine trees climbing up winding hills 
F                 G 
Fishing boats and paper mills 
 
C                        G 
Multnomah County?s where I come from 
F                           Dm  
Hometown to Bigfoot and the Burnside bums 
F                        Dm 
Rain clouds hangin? down low and grey 
    F                          G 
God knows I wish it would have rained today 
 
Chorus: 
   C         C/B       Am       Am/G F   G 
Tonight I?ve got those old Rose City blues 
   C         C/B       Am       Am/G F    G 
Tonight I?ve got those old Rose City blues 
 
Tonight I?m drivin? through some other town 
Radio on with the windows down 
Old song comes on from a long time ago 
How on earth did that DJ know 
 
Chorus 
 
Bridge: 
C    C/B  Am 
Rain rain rain 
C  C/B  Am                  C 
Pouring rain doesn?t bother me 
 
Lead solo 
 
We wrote our names in the tunnel back then 
And last night we went down and did it again 
One sip too many from that old loving cup 
Rose City people never do grow up 
 
Chorus
