Rain Chords

Patty Griffin - Rain
this is a very easy but beautiful song

tuning: standard


intro: dm C Bb  x4

verse 1:

Bb             C          dm         C
It's hard to listen to a hard hard heart
Bb      C        dm      C
 Beating close to mine
Bb        C              dm        C
Pounding up against the stone and steel
Bb                   C         
Walls that I won't climb
Bb           C          dm          C
Sometimes a hurt is so deep deep deep
Bb          C          dm         C
You think that you're gonna drown
Bb            C           dm         C
Sometimes all I can do is weep weep weep
      Bb             C             
With all this rain falling down



Chorus: 
dm           C       Bb    F   
Strange how hard it rains now
dm       C        Bb        F
Rows and rows of big dark clouds
         dm      C        Bb          F      
When I'm holding on underneath this shroud
dm   C   Bb
Rain

Bb  C  dm  Bb   x2


verse 2 (same chords)

Its hard to know when to give up the fight
Two things you want will just never be right
Its never rained like it has to night before
Now I don't wanna beg you baby
For something maybe you could never give
I'm not looking for the rest of your life
I just want another chance to live

Chorus

short interlude (hold F)

dm C Bb F  x4

Chorus (x2)
Strange how hard it rains now
Rows and rows of big dark clouds
When I'm still alive underneath this shroud

Rain 
Rain 
Rain
