G#m                           E
Watch him turn his collar up against the wet

G#m                         E
Stops a passerby and bums a cigarette

G#m                           E                G#m
Ducks inside a doorway, and I see him strike a light

Bm                                G
Pulls me back to everything I've ever known

Bm                        G
Papa's sudden rages, Mama turned to stone

Bm                         G                    Bm     G
Prayin' for St. Anthony to come and make things right

D#m                                                A#m
You don't look up and you don't talk back and your odds are ten to none

       D#m                                            A#m
Like a weed that grows from a pavement crack toward a patch of sun

    Em                                   Bm
You hide yourself in a tiny space as the voices rise

        Gmaj7               Em7         F#7
And you go someplace, where no one ever cries
[Chorus]
           Bm       Gmaj7
Well if it keeps on raining

          Bm            G
I think I might float away

           Bm       G
Yes, if it keeps on raining

  Bm   G
I may

           Bm      G
The sky is overflowing

            Bm          G
The river's more like a bay

           Bm       G
Yes, if it keeps on raining

  Em           F#m
I might float away

    G#m  E  G#m  E
One day
[Verse 2]
Bm                         G
Finishes his cigarette and throws it down

Bm                              G
Gives a little wave and then he heads downtown

Bm                                G                 Bm     G
Fading in the darkness, til' he's finally gone from sight

      D#m                                            A#m
But I don't look up and I don't wave back cause' the odds are ten to none

       D#m                                       A#m
That a weed stays put in a pavement crack and it never finds the sun

  Em                                 Bm
I fit myself in my tiny space as the waters rise

      G
And I wonder if

G
He'll be back again

                F#m
With his broken face

        Fm        Em
And his hard luck life

                  F#
And his sad brown eyes
[Chorus]
F#7       Bm       Gmaj7
And if it keeps on raining

          Bm           G
I think I might float away

           Bm       G
Yes, if it keeps on raining

  Bm   G
I may

    Bm          G
The sky is overflowing

         Bm            G
And I am filled to the brim

           Bm       G
Yes, if it keeps on raining

  Em           F#m   G  A
I might float away

A  F# Bm   G  A  Bm
To    him
