Hands Like Rain

A D A G


[Verse]

Dm     D
Slowly crawling 'cross the floor
        Bm
Comes a shadow through the window
         A                      
From the house next door and the 
 D
dust specks dancing
       Bm                D        
In the last of the light one more 
        A
evening passing
    Dbm       D
She walked on tiptoes on a gravel 
bar
Bm                           A
Wet skin pale as the evening star
    D                          
The North Platte winding like a 
 A          Bm
silver eel
  G        D
Hands like rain on August fields


[Chorus]

D               A            Bm 
Hands like rain falling soft    
     G        D       A
  to ease the drought inside
G            D  A          Bm  
As memory fades not much 
      G               D G D
remains but hands like rain


[Verse]

Bm             D             
Now I stand on stiff legs and I 
     G         D
clutch the cane

      Bm                           
And I search the sky for a sign of 
A
rain
         D                        
As if it matters as if it makes a 
A    Bm  D
damn
                     A
just an old man's habit

D                   G          D
Down the street the schoolboys play
Bm                      A
Dime novel heroes from another day
G           D
Who now are nothing more than 
faceless names
      G         D        A
And a nameless face with hands like 
rain


[Chorus]

D               A            Bm  
Hands like rain falling soft     
 G           D       A
 to ease the drought inside
G            D  A          Bm  
As memory fades not much 
      G               D G D
remains but hands like rain

Db          D      G             
We'd run by night and we'd hide 
  D    Bm
by day
              A
so the papers used to say
D                    A        G  
On stolen horses and borrowed 
  D                     A
time dancing girls and brandy wine


[Bridge]

A
I can hear them calling they're 
calling me
                              D    
I can here them calling but I still
            A
 can't see (no I can’t see it)


[Chorus]

D               A            Bm 
Hands like rain falling soft    
     G        D       A
  to ease the drought inside
G            D  A          Bm  
As memory fades not much 
      G               D G D
remains but hands like rain


[Bridge]

A  G  D                   G    
      Life and legend are an 
      D
awkward pair
Bm                          
   And there ain't much magic 
   Em       A
anywhere
 D                              
Except in moments we can't often 
 G
steal
D                  A             D
Hands like rain on August fields


[Chorus] x2

D               A            Bm  
Hands like rain falling soft     
 G           D       A
 to ease the drought inside
G            D  A          Bm  
As memory fades not much 
      G               D G D
remains but hands like rain
