(verse)
     BB           D MajorD
Theres an eagle and he keeps on flying

A augmentedA             E MajorE
over the mountains capped in white snow.

BB            D MajorD
In green valleys, lonesome people trying

A augmentedA             E MajorE
so hard to tell each other what they think they know.

BB              D MajorD
With greedy hands they take each others money

A augmentedA           E MajorE
Just to buy back his helpless pains. (not sure of this last word)


(chorus)

C#min          BB
In this land of flowing milk and honey

D MajorD    A augmentedA   E MajorE   F#F#
we wander thirsty in the rain.

D MajorD    A augmentedA   E MajorE
Thirsty in the rain.

(verse)
        BB           D MajorD
Just like that eagle, now my soul is flying

A augmentedA               E MajorE
over the valleys in the crimson morning sky.

BB             D MajorD
And there don't seem to be no use in struggling so hard

A augmentedA              E MajorE
and there don't seem to be no reasons why.

BB              D MajorD
Well i must fight you for the rich mans money

A augmentedA           E MajorE
so I can buy back his helpless pains. (not sure here either)


(chorus)

     C#min        BB
Seems so useless and somehow funny,

D MajorD    A augmentedA   E MajorE   F#F#
to be thirsty in the rain.

D MajorD    A augmentedA   E MajorE
Thirsty in the rain.

(verse)

BB           D MajorD
Fare thee well, now my own true lover,

A augmentedA        E MajorE
my face you will never see it no more.

BB           D MajorD
But there is one promise that is given

A augmentedA          E MajorE
that I will meet you on that shiny golden shore.

BB           D MajorD
Golden shore, love where the eagle soars

A augmentedA            E MajorE
so high above the fruitful plain.


(chorus)

C#min        BB
I'm the same friend that you knew when

D MajorD    A augmentedA   E MajorE   F#F#
we wandered thristy in the rain.

D MajorD    A augmentedA   E MajorE   F#F#
Thirsty in the rain.

D MajorD    A augmentedA   E MajorE   F#F#
Thirsty in the rain.

D MajorD    A augmentedA   E MajorE
Thirsty in the rain.
