Chords with lyrics
VERSE I
A augmentedA
Shed no tears for me
F# minorF#m E MajorE
There'll be rain enough today
A augmentedA D MajorD E MajorE
I'm wishing you Godspeed as I wave you on your way
A augmentedA D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD
This won't be the first time I've stayed behind to face
E MajorE D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD
The bitter consequences of an ancient fall from grace
A augmentedA D MajorD
I'm a daughter of the race of Cain
A augmentedA D MajorD A augmentedA
I am not stranger to the rain
VERSE II
A augmentedA
Orphan in the storm
F# minorF#m E MajorE
That's a role I've played before
A augmentedA
And I've learned not to tremble
C# minorC#m E MajorE
When I hear the thunder roar
D MajorD A augmentedA
I don't curse what I can't change
D MajorD
I just play the hand I'm dealt
F# minorF#m A augmentedA
And when they lighten up my rations
D MajorD
I tighten up my belt
A augmentedA D MajorD
I won't say I've never felt the pain
A augmentedA D MajorD A augmentedA F# minorF#m
But I am not a stranger to the rain
BRIDGE
F# minorF#m D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE
And for the boy who's given me the sweetest love I've known
F# minorF#m D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE
I wish for him another love so he won't be alone
B minorBm A augmentedA F# minorF#m E MajorE
But I am bound to walk among the wounded and the slain
B minorBm F# minorF#m A augmentedA E MajorE
And when the storm comes crashing on the plain
B minorBm F# minorF#m D MajorD E MajorE
I will dance before the lightning to music sacred and profane
CHORUS
A augmentedA D MajorD
Oh, shed no tears for me
A augmentedA D MajorD
Light no candle for my sake
A augmentedA D MajorD
This journey I'll be taking now
A augmentedA E MajorE
Is one we all must make
A augmentedA
Shoulder to the wind
D MajorD E MajorE
I'll turn my face into the spray
D MajorD A augmentedA
And when the heavens open
D MajorD E MajorE
Let the drops fall where they may
A augmentedA D MajorD A augmentedA
If they finally wash away the stain
A augmentedA D MajorD E MajorE
From a daughter of the race of Cain
A augmentedA D MajorD A augmentedA F# minorF#m D MajorD
I am not a stranger to the rain
A augmentedA F# minorF#m D MajorD A augmentedA
Let it rain!
