Verse 1 -
        C           G/C             Am     F
I'm not sure why it always goes downhill
           C         G/C             Am
Why broken cisterns never could stay filled
          F
I've spent

Chorus -
    C             G/C       Am
Ten years singing gravity away
        F              C                  G/C    G           
But the water keeps on falling from the sky

Verse 2 -
F         C                G/C               Am    F
So here tonight while the stars are blacking out
           C                   G/C         Am
With every hope and dream I've ever had in doubt
          F
I've spent

Chorus -
    C               G/C                 Am
Ten years trying to sing these doubts away
        F              C               G/C    G
But the water keeps on falling from my eyes
    F    C       G/C     Am    F
And heaven knows, heaven knows
                  C            G/C    G
I tried to find a cure for the pain
F     C        G/C             Am    F        
Oh my Lord, to suffer like you do
              C      G/C   Fbar
It would be a lie to run away

Verse 3 -
            C
So blood is fire
G/C                 Am    F
pulsing through our veins
              C         G/C               Am  
We're either riders, or fools behind the reigns
         F
I've spent 

Chorus - 
    C               G/C           Am
Ten years trying to sing it all away
        F               C               G/C    G
But the water keeps on falling from my tries
    F    C        G/C    Am     F
And heaven knows, heaven knows
                  C            G/C   G
I tried to find a cure for the pain
F     C        G/C             Am   F
Oh my Lord, to suffer like you do
              C      G/C  Fbar
It would be a lie to run away
  C      G/C  Fbar
A lie to run away
              C      G/C  Fbar
It would be a lie to run away

Bridge -
            C       G/C
It keeps on falling
            Am      F
It keeps on falling
            C      G/C
It keeps on falling
            Am     
It keeps on falling
        F              C               G/C    G
And the water keeps on falling from my eyes

End -
    F     C      G/C      Am   F
And heaven knows, heaven knows
                  C            G/C    G
I tried to find a cure for the pain
F     C        G/C             Am    F
Oh my Lord, to suffer like you do
              C      G/C  Fbar
It would be a lie to run away
  C      G/C   Fbar
A lie to run away
  C      G/C   Fbar
A lie to run away
