INTRO:

D  G  D  G  D  G  D

VERSE 1:

Am            D               G                    C   C/B

  Well this is horror show time in the heart of the Pacific

Am   D                     G                   C   C/B

  The French and the cavalry are dealing deadly wares

Am           D                  G              C   C/B

  And you can stand back in anger or totally despair

Am          D                    G                C   C/B   Am

  Or you can raise your voices up, maybe move some air

CHORUS:

  D         G         C

  Maybe the rain will wash your tears away

           D           Em

  Into the stream with autumn leaves

       C          C/B    C/A  G

  That some other spring may grow

           C          C/B    C/A  G

  Sometime some other spring may grow

  D         G         C

  Maybe the rain will wash your poison hands

           D    Em

  Into the open belly of the ocean wide

       C          C/B   C/A  G

  That some other child may grow

           C          C/B   C/A  G

  Sometime some other child may grow

VERSE 2:

  There is no getting out of this - the damage is horrific

  And while they're tattooing chromosomes

    from Bikini to the Marshall Islands

  They make your front yard a urinal, during R&R

  Well this is some kind of suicide, beyond the mere bizzare

CHORUS (repeat last line)

ENDING:

D  G  D         G     D         G     D         G

       Maybe the rain, maybe the rain, maybe the rain
