[Verse 1]

Ebsus2
Under the sun, there is nothing to hide

Gbsus2
Under the moon, the stranger waits inside

Ebsus2
People disappear, the music fades away

Dbsus2                           Cbsus2
Splashing through the rain, I'll dream with them one day


[Pre-Chorus]

G#m          F#       C#
It's raining, raining, on the streets of New York City

G#m          F#        E
It's raining, raining, raining deep in heaven


[Chorus]

G#m7          G#m6
I may have wasted all those years

G#m             G#5
They're not worth their time in tears

C#7sus         C#7               C#7sus
I may have spent too long in darkness, in the warmth of my fears



[Verse 2]

Ebm
Take a look at yourself, not at anyone else

Gb
Tell me what you see...

Ebm
I know the air is cold, I know the streets are

Db                               Cb
cruel, but I'll enjoy the ride today, hey


[Pre-Chorus]

G#m          F#       C#
It's raining, raining, on the streets of New York City

It's raining, raining, raining deep in heaven... Raining deep in heaven


[Chorus]

G#m7          G#m6
I may have wasted all those years

G#m7            G#5
They're not worth their time in tears

C#7sus         C#7               C#7sus
I may have spent too long in darkness, in the warmth of my fears

G#m7      G#m6
As I walk through all my myths

G#m7           G#5
Rising and sinking like the waves

C#7sus         C#7
With my thoughts wrapped around me

C#7sus
Through a trial of tears

[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/d/dream_theater/trial_of_tears_crd.html ]
Hidden by disguise, stumbling in a world
Feeling uninspired, he gets into his car

                                      A5  E5 F#5
Not within his eyes to see, open up, open up

F#5      E5          C#5     B5  Bsus2
Not much better than the man you hate

C#sus2 Esus2

[Verse 1]

G#m         F#    C#
Still awake, I continue to move along

G#m          F#        C#
Cultivating my own nonsense

G#m                 F#   C#
Welcome to the wasteland, where you'll find

G#m  F#            C#
Ashes, nothing but ashes


[Verse 2]

G#m        F#               C#
Still awake, bringing change, bringing movement, bringing life

G#m            F#           C#
A silent prayer, thrown away, disappearing in the air

G#m   F#       C#
Rising, sinking, raining deep inside me

G#m            F#  C#
Nowhere to turn, I look for a way back

G#m   F#    C#
Home

G#m F# C#

It's raining, raining, raining, deep in heaven

G#m         F#       C#
It's raining, raining, raining, deep in heaven

G#m         F#       C#
It's raining, raining, raining, deep in heaven

It's raining, raining, raining, deep in heav-
