Rain Down On Me
by Blue Rodeo

Intro:  C  F    x6

Pattern 1:
C              F
You never need forgiveness
C            F
Left home at seventeen
C            G
Raised up on hate
     Am                 D
To a life that's second rate
F
I've seen that look before
            G         C
Behind some closing door

Pattern 1:
You couldn't be delivered
You just wouldn't be denied
To much a child
Confident and wild
Nobody taught you how to live
                 G       F (not C) 
What to keep and what to give

Pattern 2:
F                C
Now she talks to strangers
F                             C  G  F
Who bring her flowers for her hair
                    C
But every night you count on me
G
To get you out the door
Am
Then you smile
                  F
And watch me lose control

C   G       Am     F
You rain on me
C    G       Am    F
Rain down on me
C    G       Am    D
Rain down on me
F                       F  F
I used to think I knew
                        F  F
What I was waiting for
                           C
I don't think that anymore

Solo:
C  G  Am  F
C  G  Am  F
C  G  Am  F
G  G


Pattern 1:
I didn't know what to bring you
You don't seem to need too much at all
No pearls or chains
And nobody's sad refrains
Every time I wonder why
                                     G  (hold)
I think back to the kindness in your eyes

Pattern 2:
Now everybody wants you
Bring you flowers for your hair
But every night you count on me
To peel you off the wall
Then you smile
And I just lose control

You rain on me
Rain down on me
Rain down on me
I used to think I knew
What I was fighting for
I don't think that anymore
