Intro: G CMaj7 G CMaj7
G CMaj7
It’s been pouring out, for quite some time
G
The rain won’t cut out
CMaj7 G CMaj7
And it feels just like I’m…soaked, to the soul,
G CMaj7
but I know, I still need a drink
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/r/run_river_north/rain_crd.html ]
G
So won’t you take a seat
CMaj7
At this table for two
G
A cup of water for me
CMaj7 Em D/F# G
This umbrella for you, to watch the drops, play out
Em D/F# G
Don’t rush the clouds, they’ll take their bows
C D (x5400x) Em (x7500x)
And float off stage, replaced by sounds
C D…. G G
A thunderous clasp, for shadows on the ground
G CMaj7
And this dream was real
CMaj7
My life’s a myth
G
I’m just a tale of a boy
CMaj7 Em D/F# G
I’m sinking quick into a man, with childish sins
C D G G
Born on his back, nailed to my chin
G
So where do I go from here
CMaj7
If here is all I have
G
Cuz I can’t show no fear
CMaj7
Fear will just laugh back
Em D/F#
But maybe that’s just it
G Am G/B C D/F# Em
We’ve forgotten how to laugh to cry, for what matters most
C D G G
So I will find my holy ghost
G
And is there a pot of gold
CMaj7
That’s waiting for me
G
At the end of this rainbow
C Em D/F# G
Cuz I can’t see the colours shine on me
Em D/F# G
Or the other side of green
C D Em
I won’t let this be the only thing
C D G G
In my heart, I fight to leave
