[Intro]
G6 C D x2
G C D It used to be there were two sets of footprints in the sand G C D And there were two silhouettes in the sunset hand in hand C D G G/F# C/E But now here beside the sea are the footprints of three D And I can't find my own among the directions they're all going G C D Baby it's alright break this chain of love and madness G C D It's alright take this rain as your new address C D C D It's alright take this rain it's alright take this rain G C D 'cause I've been running all over creation out of my mind G C D Trying to keep our hearts beating together all of the time C D G G/F# C/E Going crazier every day watching our love slipping away D 'cause you're the only home I've ever wanted and the only light I've known G C D But baby it's alright break this chain of love and madness G C D It's alright take this rain as your new address C D C D It's alright take this rain it's alright take this rain G You're going to be free
