[Verse]
A A/C#
Ever since there was thunder
D
There's been shelter from the storm
A A/C#
F# place to run for cover
D
Till the rain clouds had moved on
F#m A/G#
Now when I get that feeling
A D
Before the first drop hits the ground
F#m E D E
I'm asking, "Who's gonna stop the rain from falling down?"
[Instrumental]

[Verse
A A/C#
Wherever there's a soldier
D
Who won't give up the fight
A A/C#
Wherever there's a darkness
D
That's trying to find the light
F#m A/G#
Wherever there is hurting
A D
There is healing on the way
F#m E D E Fadd9
Like sunshine breaking through a cloudy day
[Chorus]
A A/G#
Let it rain, let it rain
F#m D
Let the rain fall all around
F#m E D E
Who's gonna stop the rain from falling down?
[Instrumental]

[Verse]
A
Maybe someday eyes won't judge you
Fadd9
By the bed you're sleeping in
A
The God you want to pray to
Fadd9
Or the color of your skin
F#m A/G#
When priests and politicians
A D
Sell the truth and nothing more
F#m E D E Fadd9
That day we'll know what all of this was for
[Chorus]
A A/G#
Let it rain, let it rain
F#m D
Let the rain fall all around
F#m E D E Fadd9
Who's gonna stop the rain from falling down?
[Bridge]
F#m C#m
These ain't pretty pictures that we're keeping in the cloud
D
Outside a storm is raging
E
Just take a look around
[Verse]
A
Somewhere there's forgiveness
Fadd9
For the broken ones like me
A
Who once stared down mighty mountains
Fadd9
And now sit beneath the trees
F#m
And somewhere there's a church bell
D
That's summoning the choir
F#m A/G#
Somewhere there's a dreamer
A D
Who would walk 1, 000 miles
F#m E D
Somewhere there's a dreamer
E Fadd9
Who would walk a 1, 000 miles
[Chorus]
A A/G#
Let it rain, let it rain
F#m D
Let the rain fall all around
F#m E D E
Who's gonna stop the rain from falling?
F#m E D E
If you're out there, Christ I'm calling
F#m E D E
Who's gonna stop the rain from falling down?
