Hard Rain Coming Down On Me chords

[spoken intro]
All right now, come on kids. Hey, listen, I'm tired of this bullshit playing around the town,
you know what I mean? ... And I told him, I said, 'listen!' I said, 'don't fuck with me, man!
Because, you know what I mean? Like, I'm a real motherfucking cowboy, you know what I mean? Hahah!
[end intro]

One, two, three, four.

[C]Hard rain coming down on me
[F]Trying to start a fire on the muddy banks
Of the Mississi[C]ppi, in the [G]rain
[F] Baby life i[C]s strange
Now he r[Am]eaches for a quarter
And he stands in the corner
And he screams out for some change.
And [C]nobody looks, but everybody sees
And everybody feels the shame.
And the [Am]rain rolls over,
And the dog rolls over,
And he rolls his hands to the sky.
And the [C]nuns in numbers knock their nails in
Like a blackbird in a blackberry pie.
[F] Says, 'Son, it [G]happens every [Am]day.
[F] We call it run[G]ning from the ra[C]in.'

[Am]Well, it's a rain of thunder,
It's a rain of fear,
It's a busted-open bottle of Rainier beer,

It [C]reaches from the sky
Like a blackbird in a blackberry pie, that's why

And [Am]everybody is runnin'
And umbrellas are poppin'
And reflections take over the streets
And the [C]blood is free now
And it flows to the sea now
And the man says, 'I'll see him again.'
[F]Said, 'Son, it [G]happens every d[Am]ay.
[F]We call it ru[G]nning from the [C]rain.'

Well, she [Am]turned her back
As he spackles the crack
And the pain just peals away.
And she t[C]hought she knew him
But an Autumn leaf blew in
And it blew what she knew of him away.
And she's [Am]countin' numbers
But she lost the light
So now she thaws out cubed steak
With a red flashlight
[C]Heads turning like a doorknob,
Eyes burning like a camp log,
What do you think of that?
[F]Said, 'Son, it h[G]appens every d[Am]ay.
[F]We call it r[G]unning from the r[C]ain.'

She's [C]gone for good,
You should know by now.
[F] She ain't coming back anyhow.
And a love to he[C]r
Is a love that's thrown away. [G]
And it's over[C] .
