INTRO:
Asus2 - C - D - B x2

Verse 1:

Asus2 - G - Em - Em
Rain, rain on my face 
Asus2 - G - Em - Em
It hasn't stopped raining for days 
Asus2 - G - Em - Em
My world is a flood 
Asus2 - G - Em - Em
Slowly I become one with the mud 


Chorus: 

Asus2 -                 C -            D - B
But if I can't swim after forty days 
Asus2 -                 C -    D -    B
And my mind is crushed by the thrashing waves
Asus2 -                 C -            D -    B 
Lift me up so high that I cannot fall
Asus2 - C - D - B 
Lift me up 


Asus2 -         C -    D -    B
Lift me up - when I'm falling 
Asus2 -         C -    D -    B
Lift me up - I'm weak and I'm dying 
Asus2 -         C -    D -    B
Lift me up - I need you to hold me 
Asus2 -         C -    D -    B
Lift me up - Keep me from drowning again 

Asus2 x6 (pause for dramatic effect...) 


Verse 2:

Asus2 - G - Em - Em
Downpour on my soul 
Asus2 - G - Em - Em
Splashing in the ocean, I'm losing control
Asus2 - G - Em - Em 
Dark sky all around 
Asus2 - G - Em - Em
can't feel my feet touching the ground 


Chorus: 

Asus2 -                 C -            D - B
But if I can't swim after forty days 
Asus2 -                 C -    D -    B
And my mind is crushed by the thrashing waves
Asus2 -                 C -            D -    B 
Lift me up so high that I cannot fall
Asus2 - C - D - B 
Lift me up 


Asus2 -         C -    D -    B
Lift me up - when I'm falling 
Asus2 -         C -    D -    B
Lift me up - I'm weak and I'm dying 
Asus2 -         C -    D -    B
Lift me up - I need you to hold me 
Asus2 -         C -    D -    B (let ring)
Lift me up - Keep me from drowning again 

violin solo:
(I usually just kinda finger pick through it with the chords shown)

Asus2-                          C                      B
Calm the storms that drench my eyes 
Asus2-                          C              
Dry the streams still flowing 
Asus2-                          C                      B
Cast down all the waves of sin 
Asus2-                          C (let ring)
And guilt that overthrow me 


Chorus: 

Asus2 -                 C -            D - B
But if I can't swim after forty days 
Asus2 -                 C -    D -    B
And my mind is crushed by the thrashing waves
Asus2 -                 C -            D -    B 
Lift me up so high that I cannot fall
Asus2 - C - D - B 
Lift me up 


Asus2 -         C -    D -    B
Lift me up - when I'm falling

Lift me up - I'm weak and I'm dying 
Asus2 -         C -    D -    B
Lift me up - I need you to hold me 
Asus2 -         C -    D -    B
Lift me up - Keep me from drowning again

Asus2 -         C -    D -    B
Lift me up - when I'm falling 
Asus2 -         C -    D -    B
