Rainmaker

C  F  C  F  C


[Verse 1]
F                                 
Parched crops dying 'neath a dead 
   C
sun
F                                  C
We've been praying but no good comes
F                                 
The dog's howling, home's stripped
  C
 bare
F                              
We've been worried but now we're 
      C  F  C
scared


[Verse 2]
F                                 
People come for comfort or just to
   C
 come
          F                        
Taste the dark sticky potion or 
          C
hear the drums
F                                 
Hands raised to Yahweh to bring 
          C
the rain down
         F
He comes crawlin' 'cross the dry 
fields like a dark shroud


[Chorus]
F
Rainmaker, a little faith for hire
F
Rainmaker, the house is on fire
F
Rainmaker, take evеrything you have
    F                              
Sometimes folks need to bеlieve in 
                  Bb         Bbsus4
something so bad, so bad, so bad
               F          F
They'll hire a rainmaker (rainmaker)

[Verse 3]
F                              
Rainmaker says white's black and 
              C
black's white
F                              C
Says night's day and day's night
F                                 
Says close your eyes and go to 
     C
sleep now
         F
I'm in a burnin' field unloadin' 
buckshot into low clouds


[Chorus]
F
Rainmaker, a little faith for hire
F
Rainmaker, the house is on fire
F
Rainmaker, take evеrything you have
    F                              
Sometimes folks need to bеlieve in 
                  Bb         Bbsus4
something so bad, so bad, so bad
               F          F
They'll hire a rainmaker (rainmaker)


[Bridge]
Bb                Bbsus4
Slow moving wagon drawing through a 
dry town
F
Painted rainbow, crescent moon and 
dark clouds
Bb              Bbsus4
Brother patriot come forth and lay 
it down
F                             
Your blood brother for king and 
        F
crown for your rainmaker

[Verse 4]
          F                      
They come for the smile, the firm 
         C
handshake
          F                      
They come for the raw chance of a 
          C
fair shake
             F                 
Some come to make damn sure, my 
      C
friend
          F                        
This mean season's got nothin' to 
          C
do with them
     F                           
They come 'cause they can't stand 
        C
the pain
           F                     C
Of another long hot day of no rain
F                                  C
'Cause they don't care or understand
        F                          
What it really takes for the sky to
             Bb
 open up the land


[Chorus]

F
Rainmaker, the house is on fire
F
Rainmaker, take evеrything you have
    F                              
Sometimes folks need to bеlieve in 
                  Bb         Bbsus4
something so bad, so bad, so bad
               F
They'll hire a rainmaker
