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.
