Am	G	Esus	Am	G	Esus

Am    G 		Esus
Rain, Rain on my face,
Am       G 	             Esus
Hasn't stopped raining for days
Am G	        Esus
My world is a flood
Am         G  		     Esus
Slowly I become one with the mud.

(Pre-Chorus)
Am          G	   Esus
If I can't swim after forty days
               Am       G 	         Esus
And my mind is crushed by the crashing waves
             Am    G	            Esus
Lift me up so high that I cannot fall
             Am        G	Esus
Lift me up.

(Chorus)
             Am   F             G	       Esus
Lift me up - when I'm falling
             Am         F                     G          Esus
Lift me up - I'm weak and I'm dying
             Am     F                 G       Esus
Lift me up - I need you to hold me
             Am         F                     G	       Esus
Lift me up - and keep me from droning again

Am    G 		Esus
Down pour on my soul
Am 		        G 	         Esus
Splashing through the ocean I'm losing control
Am    G 	         Esus
Dark skies all around
Am    G 		 Esus
Can't feel my feet toughing the ground

(Repeat Pre-Chorus)

(Repeat Chorus)

Am          G  	     Esus
Calm the storm that drench my eyes
         Am       G	            Esus
And dry the streams still flowing
Am    G	         Esus
Cast down all waves of sin
Am                  G	  Esus
And guilt that overthrow me

(Repeat Pre-Chorus)

(Repeat Chorus x2)

*Note: This is not to playable with the CD.  This version is
	simplified for beginner guitarists.  I think putting 
	the capo to the 3rd fret will make it very close.  
	Again this is for preformance or of personal practice.
