Lyrics with chords: (written as if played in standard tuning)

Verse:
Cadd9Cadd9
How can you be
           G minorGm
Like a sky stretched out before me
          F/AF/A
And the world is turning your way
         Csus2Csus2     G+G F/AF/A
Even darkness is better this way

Cadd9Cadd9
Can it be true
          G minorGm
That it all comes rushing from you
      F/AF/A
When my resistance is gone
             Csus2Csus2    G+G
And there's nothing that I can lean on

Prechorus:
FF C majorC

Chorus:
Dsus4Dsus4     D MajorD      Dsus4Dsus4
You are the wind at my back
    D MajorD     Cadd9Cadd9
You give what I lack
       G+G     Asus4Asus4
You're the jewel in my hand
       A augmentedA     Dsus4Dsus4
You're like rain on dry land

       D MajorD     Dsus4Dsus4
You're the focus, the beam
     D MajorD     Cadd9Cadd9
You're reality?s dream

You're the blue in my black
       A augmentedA    G+G  E minor 7Em7 Dsus2Dsus2
You're the wind at my back

Verse:
Cadd9Cadd9
All of the above
        G minorGm
I'll have the lot for my love
        F/AF/A
And as we're becoming somehow
           Csus2Csus2   G+G  F/AF/A
As we're changing the future to now

 Cadd9Cadd9
I just want to live
          G minorGm
In the place that you have to give
       F/AF/A
I'll let the heat beat me down
      Csus2Csus2     G+G
Until the water comes down
