[Chords]
C G* Am F Em
*In the song the G is played as a bar chord, on the third fret
[Verse 1]
C G
All the rivers are bending
Am
And the mountains are peaking
C G
And the flowers are blooming
Am
And the meadows are rolling
F
Into waves, they wash upon the shore
Am G
And barely touch your toes
F
The clouds are crowding around us
Am G
For some reason no one knows
[Chorus]
C Em
And I said, "Hey, looks like raaiiiiin"
Am F
Then you lifted your hands and prayed
C Em Am F
"Go awaaayyyy, you can come back some other day"
F G
But they staayyyed
Am F
And you soaked under all of the grey
F G
And the raaiiiiin
Am F
Washed all our cries and pleas away
[Verse 2]
C G
Now the season is changing
Am
And the leaves now are turning
C G
And the birds aren't singing
Am F
And the grass isn't green anymore
Am G
Than it used to be when the sunbeams lit it up
F
And the clouds are crowding 'round us
Am G
Just to say they've had enough
[Chorus]
C Em
And I said, "Hey, looks like raaiiiiin"
Am F
Then you lifted your hands and prayed
C Em Am F
"Go awaaayyyy, you can come back some other day"
F G
But they staayyyed
Am F
And you soaked under all of the grey
F G
And the raaiiiiin
Am F
Washed all our cries and pleas away
C G Am x2
[Verse 3]
F Am G
And now the current takes us out and all the ripples turn to waves
F Am G
The wind begins caressing all the branches to a sway
F
The air shattered like glass
Am G
And felt like crystals on your face
F
I took you in my arms
Am G
And I could hear you saying grace
[Chorus]
C Em
Then I said, "Hey, looks like raaiiiiin"
Am F
Then you lifted your hands and prayed
C Em Am F
"Go awaaayyyy, you can come back some other day"
F G
But they staayyyed
Am F
And you soaked under all of the grey
F G
And the raaiiiiin
Am F C
Washed all our cries and pleas away
