F G Am
F G Am
Rain down mercy for the lost and lonely child
F G Am
For the liars and the losers, the reckless and the wild
F G Am
There's no more use in pretending, I know I never fooled you
F G
The deepest darkness I've ever known comes
Am
From living like I do
But I swear I'm gonna knock on that gate,
Even if it's all in vain
I'll stand outside with my mouth wide open
And drink the pourin' rain
I know there's some good left in this world
I've seen it shine in your eyes
Rain down salvation, keep my faith alive
Dm7 C F Dm7 C
The harder we fall, the closer we come
F Dm7 C
To finding our hearts and the damage we've done
F Dm7 C
Darlin' I've held the devil's dirty hand
F Dm7 Fmaj7
But holding you now I know
G Am
Is Heaven's last attempt
Bb F Bb F
So won't you walk beside me, you know I can't make it alone
Bb F C Dm G
Here the fields are dark and the wind is hard, hard as stone
Bb G F Dm7 C
Roll out the sky and let me come home, come home
C F Dm7 C
The harder we fall, the closer we come
To finding the light and the warmth of the sun
All that I've ever had, I let slip through my hands
F Dm7 Fmaj7 F Fmaj7
But holding you now I know is heaven
F Fmaj7 (repeat to end, end on F)
