INTRO:
 D (xx0232@1)G (320003@1)D (xx0232@1)G (320003@1)D (xx0232@1)G (320003@1)D (xx0232@1)VERSE 1:
 Am (x02210@1)          D (xx0232@1)             G (320003@1)                  C (x32010@1) C/B (x2555x@1) Well this is horror show time in the heart of the Pacific
 Am (x02210@1) D (xx0232@1)                   G (320003@1)                 C (x32010@1) C/B (x2555x@1) The French and the cavalry are dealing deadly wares
 Am (x02210@1)         D (xx0232@1)                G (320003@1)            C (x32010@1) C/B (x2555x@1) And you can stand back in anger or totally despair
 Am (x02210@1)        D (xx0232@1)                  G (320003@1)              C (x32010@1) C/B (x2555x@1) Am (x02210@1) Or you can raise your voices up, maybe move some air

CHORUS:
  D (xx0232@1)       G (320003@1)       C (x32010@1) Maybe the rain will wash your tears away
           D (xx0232@1)         Em (022000@1) Into the stream with autumn leaves
       C (x32010@1)        C/B (x2555x@1)  C/A  G (320003@1) That some other spring may grow
           C (x32010@1)        C/B (x2555x@1)  C/A  G (320003@1) Sometime some other spring may grow
  D (xx0232@1)       G (320003@1)       C (x32010@1) Maybe the rain will wash your poison hands
           D (xx0232@1)  Em (022000@1) Into the open belly of the ocean wide
       C (x32010@1)        C/B (x2555x@1) C/A  G (320003@1) That some other child may grow
           C (x32010@1)        C/B (x2555x@1) C/A  G (320003@1) Sometime some other child may grow

VERSE 2:
  There is no getting out of this - the damage is horrific
  And while they're tattooing chromosomes
    from Bikini to the Marshall Islands
  They make your front yard a urinal, during R&R
  Well this is some kind of suicide, beyond the mere bizzare

CHORUS (repeat last line)

ENDING:
 D (xx0232@1)G (320003@1)D (xx0232@1)       G (320003@1)   D (xx0232@1)       G (320003@1)   D (xx0232@1)       G (320003@1)      Maybe the rain, maybe the rain, maybe the rain
