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

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

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