Slaid Cleaves - In The Rain
INTRO: Em Am Em
Rain comes down stinging, blood takes on a chill
The sun's not coming out, but still, you hope it will
Am Em
You're in the rain, you're in the rain
B7
Wind blowing through your bones, boots soaking through
No cover to be found, nothing you can do
Em Am
You're in the rain
Em
You're in the rain
In good times or bad, true men can only try
You wonder how long, you don't ask why
Am Em
You're in the rain, you're in the rain
B7
You can let fate lead, you can wait for it to drag you
When the wind blows you like a tumbling rag
Em Am
You're in the rain
Em Am
You're in the rain
CHORUS:
Em
Soak your skin in heaven's tears
Wash away your wasted years
Am
All our sorrows wash out the same
B7
Let it soak you to the bone
N.C. Em Am
You're in the rain
Em
You're in the rain
INSTRUMENTAL: Em Am Em B7 Em
Hold you face up, open your eye
Feel every droplet sting as you live and die
Am Em
You're in the rain, you're in the rain
B7
Know your rights and right your wrongs
Lift your voice to the heartbreak song
Em Am
You're in the rain
Em Am
You're in the rain
CHORUS:
Em
Soak your skin in heaven's tears
Wash away your wasted years
Am
All our sorrows gonna wash out the same
B7
You know you're not alone
N.C. Em Am
You're in the rain
Em
You're in the rain
Am Em
You're in the rain
INTRO: Em Am Em
Rain comes down stinging, blood takes on a chill
The sun's not coming out, but still, you hope it will
Am Em
You're in the rain, you're in the rain
B7
Wind blowing through your bones, boots soaking through
No cover to be found, nothing you can do
Em Am
You're in the rain
Em
You're in the rain
In good times or bad, true men can only try
You wonder how long, you don't ask why
Am Em
You're in the rain, you're in the rain
B7
You can let fate lead, you can wait for it to drag you
When the wind blows you like a tumbling rag
Em Am
You're in the rain
Em Am
You're in the rain

Soak your skin in heaven's tears
Wash away your wasted years
