One Blue Sky
Sugarland 

C                        G             
Little Annie Vickers is boarding up windows
F                     G
And a rows all get stranded on a silos
       C                  G    
Hey, there Annie, don't even think it
F                            G
So much water and you can't even drink it
Am                G                          F      
Well, maybe by Christmas they'll dig up the rows
          Am             G                               F    G
Take whatever you can, girl, and leave the rest for the crows
                         C    G - F - G 
Leave the rest for the crows

 C                      G 
Living in Crawford for fifteen years
F                    G
Nothing much ever happens round here
      C                    G
And, no one believed the water would come
 F                             G
Til the sky grew dark and it swallowed the sun
        Am                    G                   F 
And it rained for forty-two nights and forty-two days
      Am                G               F   G
And everything that we love is floating away

(Chorus)
C                  G
How long til our dreams run dry
  F                  Am   G 
Don't know but we're staying
C                G 
On our knees we raise our eyes
  F            Am   G       F   G        C   
Holding on and praying to find one blue sky

 C                        G
Mrs. Wilson sits with an insurance adjuster
 F                       G         
Big city boy, she never did trust him
      C                      G
Have you been getting the letters I'm sending
  F                                  G
Cause the preacher swears that the world is ending
      Am                     G                  F
Well, if there's a way out, wish someone would show us
          Am                G                     F    G 
We keep looking around here   for some modern day Moses

(Repeat Chorus)
 
C                  G
How long til our dreams run dry
  F                  Am   G 
Don't know but we're staying
C                G 
On our knees we raise our eyes
  F            Am   G       F   G        C   
Holding on and praying to find one blue sky

        Am               G
We will dig in our heels hard as we can
         F                        G
But the backyard looks like the Rio Grande
       Am                      C               G  
And I wonder will it wash us clean or wash us away

(Repeat Chorus)
C                  G
How long til our dreams run dry
  F                  Am   G 
Don't know but we're staying
C                G 
On our knees we raise our eyes
  F            Am   G       F   G        C   
Holding on and praying to find one blue sky

(Repeat Chorus)
  C                  G
(How long til our dreams run dry)
  F                   Am   G 
(Don't know but we're staying)
C                G 
On our knees we raise our eyes
  F            Am   G       F   G        C   
Holding on and praying to find one blue sky

G         C
One blue sky
