The Rain Keeps Falling chords

[INTRO]
[G]

[VERSE 1]

I trie[C]d to be brave but I hid in the dark
I sa[F]t in that cave and I prayed for a spark
To light u[G]p all the pain that remained in my heart
And the ra[F]in kept falling

D[C]own on the roof of the church where I cried
I could he[F]ar all the laughter and love and I tried
To get u[G]p and get out but a part of me died
And the ra[F]in kept falling down [C] [Bb]

[VERSE 2]

Well I'm sca[C]red if I open myself to be known
I'll be see[F]n and despised and be left all alone
So I'm st[G]uck in this tomb and you won't move the stone
And the ra[F]in keeps falling
[C]Somewhere the sun is a light in the sky
But I'm dyi[F]ng in North Carolina and I
Can't beli[G]eve there's and end to this season of night
And the r[F]ain keeps falling dow[C]n
Falling do[Bb]wn
Falling dow[F]n [C] [Bb] [F]

[VERSE 3]

There's a wo[C]man at home and she's praying for a light
My ch[F]ildren are there and they love me in spite
Of the sha[G]dow I know that they see in my eyes
And the ra[F]in keeps falling

I'm so ti[C]red of this game, of these songs, of the road
I'm alrea[F]dy ashamed of the line I just wrote
But it's tr[G]ue and it feels like I can't sing a note
And the r[F]ain keeps falling do[C]wn
Falling do[Bb]wn
Falling dow[F]n

[BRIDGE 1]

[C]Peace, be sti[F]ll
[C]Peace, be sti[F]ll

[VERSE 4]

My dau[C]ghter and I put the seeds in the dirt
And ev[F]ery day now we've been watching the earth
For a s[G]ign that this death will give way to a birth
And the ra[F]in keeps falling

D[C]own on the soil where the sorrow is laid
And the s[F]ecret of life is igniting the grave
And I'm dy[G]ing to live but I'm learning to wait
And the ra[F]in is falling

[BRIDGE 2]

[C]Peace, be sti[F]ll
[C]Peace, be sti[F]ll
[C]I just want to be new again
[F]I just want to be closer to You again
[C]Lord, I can't find the song
[F]I'm so tired and I'm always so wrong
[C]Help me be brave tonight
[F]Jesus, please help me out of this cave tonight
[C]I've been calling and calling
[F]This rain just keeps falling
[C]I've been calling and calling
[F]But this rain just keeps falling and falling
[C]Is it You?
[F]Is it You?
[C]Is it true?
[F]Is it You?
(Peace, peace)

[C] [F] [C]
