Dm  A  Gm  A  Dm  A  Gm  A  A#  Dm* 

 Dm              A            Gm             A  
Spare me your judgements and spare me your dreams 
        Dm      A               Gm        A 
Cause recently mine have been tearing my seams 
        A#                                         Dm* 
I sit alone in this winter clarity which clouds my mind 


 Dm           A            Gm           A 
Alone in the wind and the rain you left me 
       Dm           A      Gm          A 
It's getting dark darling, too dark to see 
        A#                                         Dm* 
And I'm on my knees, and your faith in shreds, it seems 


Dm  C  B  A#  A  Gm  F  A*  Dm* 
Dm  C  B  A#  A  Gm  F  A*  Dm* 


   Dm     A              Gm              A 
Corrupted by the simple sniff of riches blown 
   Dm           A               Gm               A  
I know you have felt much more love than you've shown 
        A#                                      Dm* 
And I'm on my knees and the water creeps to my chest 


     Dm* 
But plant your hope with good seeds 
       Dm* 
Don't cover yourself with thistle and weeds 
 A#*                   Dm* 
Rain down, rain down on me 
     Dm* 
Look over your hills and be still 
    Dm* 
The sky above us shoots to kill 
 A#*                    Dm* 
Rain down, rain down on me

But   I   will   hold   on

      I   will   hold   on hope

    Dm          A                Gm                  A 
I begged you to hear me, there's more than flesh and bones 
         Dm            A               Gm           A  
Let the dead bury the dead, they will come out in droves 
              A#                                               Dm* 
But take the spade from my hands and fill in the holes you've made 


     Dm* 
But plant your hope with good seeds 
       Dm* 
Don't cover yourself with thistle and weeds 
 A#*                    Dm* 
Rain down, rain down on me
