Andrew Peterson – The Rain Keeps Falling (Guitar)

      C
I tried to be brave but I hid in the dark

    F
I sat in that cave and I prayed for a spark

          G
To light up all the pain that remained in my heart

          F
And the rain kept falling

 C
Down on the roof of the church where I cried

          F
I could hear all the laughter and love and I tried

        G
To get up and get out but a part of me died

          F                    C Bb
And the rain kept falling down

            C
Well I'm scared if I open myself to be known

           F
I'll be seen and despised and be left all alone

         G
So I'm stuck in this tomb and you won't move the stone

          F
And the rain keeps falling

C
Somewhere the sun is a light in the sky

           F
But I'm dying in North Carolina and I

          G
Can't believe there's and end to this season of night

         F                    C
And the rain keeps falling down

          Bb
Falling down

           F C Bb F
Falling down

            C
There's a woman at home and she's praying for a light

     F
My children are there and they love me in spite

          G
Of the shadow I know that they see in my eyes

          F
And the rain keeps falling

         C
I'm so tired of this game, of these songs, of the road

         F
I'm already ashamed of the line I just wrote

           G
But it's true and it feels like I can't sing a note

         F                   C
And the rain keeps falling down

          Bb
Falling down

           F
Falling down

C            F
Peace, be still

C            F
Peace, be still

      C
My daughter and I put the seeds in the dirt

      F
And every day now we've been watching the earth

       G
For a sign that this death will give way to a birth

          F
And the rain keeps falling

 C
Down on the soil where the sorrow is laid

         F
And the secret of life is igniting the grave

          G
And I'm dying to live but I'm learning to wait

          F
And the rain is falling

C            F
Peace, be still

C            F
Peace, be still

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?
