Verse 1:

        D(all the way)
Let the rain fall down

let it fall to the ground Let the rain fall down to the ground And the birds don't sing no they don't make a sound When you're six feet underground Well they cast me out when the word spread around That I never sang in the church And it took one night for the town to decide I'm afflicted by the curse Refrain 1:

        Eb
And the rain falls down

D-- let it fall to the ground

        Eb
And the birds don't sing

D-- no they don't make a sound

     Eb
So I look to the sky 

        F#
tell me why tell me why

   Gm       F/A    Bb
Do they all get to live

      Cm      D
and I have to die?

Verse 2:

        D(all the way)
So they marched me down

to the center of town With their pitchforks high in the air I was chained and bound with a blindfold around So the judge wouldn't catch my stare And they hung my soul from the gallows pole But the witch they never found So to those who don't fit society's mold Learn to swim or you will drown (Repeat Refrain) Chorus:

        Bb
And the angels sing

       F
let it shine let it shine

        Cm
Dry the teardrops 

        Gm
from my eyes

        Bb
And the bells will ring when 

    F
the blind lead the blind

          Cm              Gm
Cause the dead can't testify

      Bb
And because I can't 

        F
take an eye for an eye

       Eb
In the afterlife I'll

Gm D-- haunt you till you die! Guitar Solo: D-- x8 Refrain 2:

        Eb
And the rain falls down

let it fall to the ground

     D
with teardrops on the ground!!!

        Eb
And the birds don't sing

no they don't make a sound

          D
with your 6 feet underground!!!

     Eb
So I look to the sky 

        F#
tell me why tell me why

   Gm       F/A    Bb
Do they all get to live

      Cm      D
and I have to die?

(Repeat Chorus twice) Outro: D-- x8 lie!!!
