G              C                Am
Girl, you're a bird that flies away
       C               Em             G
As I'm reaching out to take you in my hand
   G       C                    Am
At first I believe you're gonna stay
      C            Em
And I think I understand

[Chorus]
    C                D
You show me all your colors
      Em                C
Long enough to feel the pain
G                 Am
Then you leave me helpless
       C      D      G
Like a candle in the rain

[Verse 2]
G              C                   Am
Girl, you're a wind that's blowing free
        C                 Em            G
And you leave the dust of wanting in my eyes
G                C                 Am
Faith, I thought you were here for me
        C               Em
Just to clear my cloudy skies

[Chorus]
       C                  D
You're moving here within me
      Em                C
Long enough to feel the pain
G                 Am
Then you leave me stranded
       C      D      G
Like a candle in the rain

[Bridge]
C                  Bm
I don't think I'll ever heal
         C                 G
From the scars you left on me
C                      Bm
How can one hold on so long
        C         Bm  D
And let go so easil - y

[Chorus]
    C                D
You show me all your colors
      Em                C
Long enough to feel the pain
G                 Am
Then you leave me helpless
       C      D      G
Like a candle in the rain
