Shed no tears for me

There'll be rain enough today

I'm wishing you Godspeed as I wave you on your way

A                       D          A                D
This won't be the first time I've stayed behind to face

    E           D             A                 D
The bitter consequences of an ancient fall from grace

I'm a daughter of the race of Cain

I am not stranger to the rain
VERSE II
A 
Orphan in the storm

         F#m              E
That's a role I've played before

         A              
And I've learned not to tremble

       C#m              E
When I hear the thunder roar

        D                  A
I don't curse what I can't change

       D                      
I just play the hand I'm dealt

              F#m            A
And when they lighten up my rations

  D
I tighten up my belt

        A                       D
I won't say I've never felt the pain

    A                D         A    Bm
But I am not a stranger to the rain
BRIDGE
    F#m               G            D                  A
And for the boy who's given me the sweetest love I've known

  F#m         G                D           A
I wish for him another love so he won't be alone

G                                D               A
But I am bound to walk among the wounded and the slain

G             F#m           G            A
And when the storm comes crashing on the plain

        Bm              F#m                G              A
I will dance before the lightning to music sacred and profane
CHORUS
    D                 A
Oh, shed no tears for me

         D             G
Light no candle for my sake

     D               A
This journey I'll be making now

   D               A
Is one we all must make 

G               
Shoulder to the wind

             D             G
I'll turn my face into the spray

    A
And when the heavens open

        D                     A
Let the drops fall where they may

        D            G        D
If they finally wash away the stain

       F#m             G       A
From a daughter of the race of Cain

D          A       G           D Bm A
I am not a stranger to the rain 

            D Bm A D 
Let it rain!
