C G* Am F Em     
*In the song the G is played as a bar chord, on the third fret


[Verse 1]

C          G
   All the rivers are bending
Am
   And the mountains are peaking
C          G
   And the flowers are blooming
Am
   And the meadows are rolling
     F
Into waves, they wash upon the shore
    Am                G
And barely touch your toes
    F
The clouds are crowding around us
         Am            G
For some reason no one knows


[Chorus]

             C               Em        
And I said, "Hey, looks like raaiiiiin"
Am          F
   Then you lifted your hands and prayed
C     Em      Am         F
  "Go awaaayyyy, you can come back some other day"
F           G
   But they staayyyed
Am         F
   And you soaked under all of the grey
F          G
   And the raaiiiiin
Am            F
   Washed all our cries and pleas away


[Verse 2]

C          G                  
   Now the season is changing
Am                               
   And the leaves now are turning
C          G                
   And the birds aren't singing
Am                                  F 
   And the grass isn't green anymore
                            Am              G
Than it used to be when the sunbeams lit it up
        F
And the clouds are crowding 'round us
        Am              G
Just to say they've had enough


[Chorus]

             C               Em        
And I said, "Hey, looks like raaiiiiin"
Am          F
   Then you lifted your hands and prayed
C     Em      Am         F
  "Go awaaayyyy, you can come back some other day"
F           G
   But they staayyyed
Am         F
   And you soaked under all of the grey
F          G
   And the raaiiiiin
Am            F
   Washed all our cries and pleas away

[Verse 3]

            F                                Am              G
And now the current takes us out and all the ripples turn to waves
    F                             Am            G
The wind begins caressing all the branches to a sway
    F
The air shattered like glass
              Am               G
And felt like crystals on your face
  F
I took you in my arms
            Am              G
And I could hear you saying grace


[Chorus]

              C               Em        
Then I said, "Hey, looks like raaiiiiin"
Am          F
   Then you lifted your hands and prayed
C     Em      Am         F
  "Go awaaayyyy, you can come back some other day"
F           G
   But they staayyyed
Am         F
   And you soaked under all of the grey
F          G
   And the raaiiiiin
Am            F                       C
   Washed all our cries and pleas away
