Misc Originals – Charlie Gray - River In The Rain (Guitar)

G – D – Em – C
(Finish C picking → ghost strum → start verse)

G                    D
In the quiet moments where the shadows play,

Em                         C
I still hear your laughter in the light of the day,

G                        D
The clock keeps turning, as the sun sinks low,

Em                     C
I still chase whispers of a love I used to know.

G                      D             
I thought we danced on the edge of forever,

Em                C
The memory of you feels like stormy weather,

G                             D
Now I’m caught in the echoes, lost in the sound,

Em                         C
Trying to find my way back to solid ground.

G                   D
Losing you’s like a river in the rain,

Em                         C
Flowing through the heart, washing dreams down the drain.

G                        D
I reach for your warmth, but it slips like sand,

Em                                C
In the space between us, I’m still holding your hand.

G                     D
Every street I wander, every song I play,

Em                  C
I'd trade it all for one more day,

G                   D
The threads of our story unraveled too fast,

Em                       C
Left with these notes of a love that will last.

G                           D
Sometimes I catch a glimpse of what could’ve been,

Em                         C
In the echoes of laughter of something unseen,

G                              D
Now standing at the crossroads of what I can’t explain,

Em                          C
Searching for the sunlight that’s lost in the rain.

G                   D
Losing you’s like a river in the rain,

Em                         C
Flowing through the heart, washing dreams down the drain.

G                        D
I reach for your warmth, but it slips like sand,

Em                        C
In the space between us, I’m still holding your hand.

G
I’ll write you a letter, but the ink’s running dry,

D
With every word I write, I know we said goodbye,

Em
There will always be a piece of you that lives in my mind,

C
In every chord I strum, you’re the ghost I want to find.

G                 D
Losing you’s like a river in the rain,

G                         D
I reach for your warmth, but it slips like sand,

G – D – Em – C (soft picking)
End on G (let ring)
