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

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