The song came and went,
Am C
like the times that we spent,
G D C D
hiding out from the rain under the carnival tent

Happen she d smile,
Am C
it would last for awhile,
G D C G D
you don't know what you got, till you lose it all again

Listen to the mandolin rain,
G D
listen to the music on the lake;
Am C G C G
listen to my heart break, every time she runs away
C G C
Listen to the banjo wind,
G D
a sad song drifting low,
Am C G C D
listen to the tears roll, down my face as she turns to go
G D
A cool evening dance,
Am C G
listening to the bluegrass band takes the chill
D C G D
from the air, till they play the last song
G D
I'll do my time,
Am C
keeping you off my mind;
G D C G D
but there's moments that I find, I'm not feeling too strong

a sad song drifting low,

listen to the tears roll, down my face as she turns to go

Running down by the lakeshore,

she did love the sound of a summer storm

Playing on the lake like a mandolin,
Am C D
now it's washing her away once again
Solo
G D
The boat's steaming in,
Am C
I watch the side wheel spin, and
G D C G D
I think about her when I hear the whistle blow
G D
I can't change my mind,
Am C G
I knew all the time that she'd go;
D C G D
but that's a choice I made long ago
C G C
Listen to the mandolin rain,
G D
listen to the music on the lake;
Am C G C G
listen to my heart break every time she runs away

a sad song drifting low;
Am C G C D
listen to the tears roll, down my face as she turns to go
C
As she turns to go
G C
Listen to, listen to the mandolin rain
Am C G C D
Listen to the tears roll, down my face as she turns to go
Am C G C D
Listen to the tears roll, down my face as she turns to go
G C
Listen to, listen to the mandolin rain

The chords are misplaced. Try to play it with the song in the background and it did not match most of the places where a chord must be played.
