Chords

G
Flipped into the wind

                           C
Like the ashes of her cigarette

       D
He got scattered and thrown on the breeze

                  G
As he tried to forget
He lost all his heat
                                C
And his heart never will be the same

        D
He got lighter than air

                                G
But he'll only come down in the rain
[Verse 2]
G
Strung out and hung out to dry

                   C
Laughin' under the line

     D
It's not such a dignified place

                    G
But he really don't mind

G
He says with his feet on the ground

                     C
He'd have nothin' to gain

          D
Claims he likes it up there

                                G
And he'll only come down in the rain
[Chorus 1]
G                  Em
Comin' down in the rain

                  C
Washin' outta the sky

                     Am
Loaded down with the pain

                           D
There just ain't no way to fly

G
You can read him as clear

                                    C
As the wall where he once wrote his name

       D
It was right next to hers

                                G
But it'll only come down in the rain
[Instrumental] [Verse 3]
G
Burnin' himself out on a limb

                   C
Like a leaf in the fall

   D
He blazed for awhile

                                  G
Now he's feelin' all dried up and small

G
The colors all gone

                                 C
Disappeared, near as quick as it came

        D
He says he can't stay up

                                 G
But, he'll only come down in the rain
[Chorus 2]
G                  Em
Comin' down in the rain

                  C
Washin' outta the sky

                     Am
Loaded down with the pain

                           D
There just ain't no way to fly

G
You can read him as clear

                                    C
As the wall where he once wrote his name

       D
It was right next to hers

                                G
But it'll only come down in the rain

G
You can read him as clear

                                    C
As the wall where he once wrote his name

       D
It was right next to hers

                                G
But it'll only come down in the rain
