            Intro: C   Am   C   Am 

Verse 1:
C                     Am    
the sky is crying the streets are full of tears 
C                  Am   
rain come down and wash away my fears 
Am           Em 
and all this writing on the wall 
Em                        Am     C D  G 
oh i can read between the lines 
C                 Am 
rain come down forgive this dirty town 
C                  Am  
rain come down and give this dirty town 
Am         Em                      Am     C   
a drink of water        a drink of wine 
  
Chorus:
      G           Am            F                             
        if i been hard on you   I never chose to be 
      G         Am     G      F    
        i never wanted no-one else 
      G            Am             Em            Am    G           
        i tried my best to be somebody you'd be close to 
      F      G7   Dm   C    G 
        hand in   hand like lovers are supposed to 
alt:  F                     G                         DUD     

Verse 2:
         C                  Am
As you'd sleep I'd think my heart would break in two
              C                Am
I'd kiss your cheek I'd stop myself from waking you
           Em                                              Am     C D G
But in the dark you'd speak my name. You'd say baby what's wrong ?
C                       Am
Oh ? Here I am baby I'm coming back for more
           C                  Am
I'm like a wave that's got to roll into the shore
        Em                                          Am        C
Yes and if my love's in vain how come my love is so strong ?

Rpt Chorus:

Verse 3:
    C                        Am
Now you and me go parallel together and apart
        C                                   Am
And you keep your perfect distance and it's tearing at my heart
        Em                                                   Am   C D G
Did you never feel the distance? You never tried to cross no line
             C                       Am
'Cause it's another dirty river and another dirty scar
      C                                  Am
And I don't know who's kissing you and I don't know where you are
    Em                                     Am    C
So far from home don't you think of me sometime?

Rpt Chorus: (2x)

Verse 4:
C                     Am
Sky is crying see the streets are full of tears
C                   Am
Rain coming down to wash away my fears
             Em                   Em                        Am    C D G
And all this writing on the wall, Oh I can read between the lines
