Verse 1:
G
Chopping wood in the rain
C                     G
The axe swings up and falls again
C                   Am              D  C Bm7 D7
I watch you move so smoothly in the dance
G
Listening to the hollow sound
C                         G
Of splitting logs as they hit the ground
Am                   D                G
I’d build a fire for you if I had the chance

Chorus:
        C                     G
Let the chips fall where they can
Bm                    D#
I’ve tried my best to understand
       G                     Em
Why we stand out here in the rain
       Bm7           C    Bm7
In our anger and our pain
Am7                D
Afraid to feel the love
              G      C
That’s in our hands


Verse 2:
G
Love that was so strong
C                         G
Stopped you short when it came along
C                  Am           D  C  Bm7 D7
Sometimes I wonder why you ever stayed
G
‘Cause when you turn away
C                       G
And save yourself for a rainy day,
Am7                 D                 G
Love grows weak and then it starts to fade


Chorus:
        C                     G
Let the chips fall where they can
Bm                    D#
I’ve tried my best to understand
       G                     Em
Why we stand out here in the rain
       Bm7           Cmaj7  Bm7
In our anger and our pain
Am7                D
Afraid to feel the love
              G      C
That’s in our hands

Verse 3:
G
In winter’s wet and cold
C                      G
Some people change and some just grow old
C              Am                    D C Bm7 D7
The years go by in spite of what you do
G
I’d like to lay you down
C                     G
And turn your twisted head around
Am7                      D                  G
But babe, there’s really nothing that I can do


Chorus:
        C                     G
Let the chips fall where they can
Bm                    D#
I’ve tried my best to understand
       G                     Em
Why we stand out here in the rain
       Bm7           C    Bm7
In our anger and our pain
Am7                D
Afraid to feel the love
              G
That’s in our hands
