      - - - - Am                                        F

1. I have given, I have given and got none,

                 Am                                            F

    still I’m driven by something I can’t explain.

                     G                                          F

    It’s not a cross, it is a choice, I cannot help but hear his voice,

               G                                                F

    I only wish that I could listen without shame.

 

           C - G          Dm        F

Let it rai…..n, let it rain on me,

         C                  G             Dm       F

let it rain, oh, let it rain, let it rain on me.

 

                 Am                                          F

2. I have been a witness to the perfect crime,

                     Am                                            F

    I wipe the grin off of my face to hide the blame.

                 G                                                 F

    It isn't worth the tears you cry to have a perfect alibi,

                   G                                               F

    now I'm beaten at the hands of my own game.   + CHORUS

 

   G                              F      - G                                                 F

+     It isn’t easy to be kind         with all these demons in my mind,

G                                 Dm Em  F

    I only hope one day I’ll   be  free !      +  Am - F  - Am - F

 

   G                                         F     - G                                           F

+     I do my best not to complain,       my face is dirty from the strain,

G                                 Dm Em       F

    I only hope one day I'll   come clean.       + CHORUS

 

      C                     G      - Dm                                  F

+  Come take my hand,            we can walk to the light,

      C                G    - Dm                                                    F

    and without fear          we can see through the darkest night.

 

+  CHORUS ….
