Dsus2
Left on my own don't know where
Bb/D Dsus2
I should begin to look it's involuntary instinct
Bb/D Dsus2
Controls my every footstep, westward through haze
Bb/D Dsus
The voice of shadows whispers in my ears
Bb/D C
Alaskan forests to the sea
Bb A7 A7sus
Keeping all faith alive I fall into the rain
A7 A7sus A7
Let me go, let me go
G Fmaj7
Oh my soul drenched in the rain - the rain

I light two candles in the window of my mind
The wind that threatens I've no words left to describe
Asus2 A
Resisting the fates
C D
When mercy comes to shelter me
E Dsus2 Dsus2(b5) D
Over and over I am witness to the signs
Evil's more focused as we near the end of times
Asus2 A Fmaj7
Praying so hard that your shelter comes to cover me

Dsus2
What kind of world is this that
Bb/D
It should come down to this oh
Dsus2
Each day the pressure building
Bb/D
In Biblical proportion
Dsus2 Bb/D
I've seen extremes from love to war
Dsus2
They both are walking here
Gm C
And echoing prophetic song
Bb
Plagues and famine and hate
A7 A7sus A7
All fall into the rain, let it go,
G Fmaj7
The whole world floods in the rain - the rain
E Dsus2 Dsus2(b5) D
We lose horizons they just vanish as we run
Chess moves in silence glacial patience under gun
Asus2 A
The marching of time
Cmaj7 D
When mercy comes to shelter me
E Dsus2 Dsus2(b5) D
Fragments of truth are out there blowing in the wind
I cry for loved ones and removal of the sting
Asus2 A
I just can't let go
Fmaj7
Your shelter comes to cover me

E Dsus2 Dsus2(b5) D
In desperation we make moves and never know
Their antidote is poison and my blood runs cold
Asus2 A
Stoking the flames
Cmaj7 D
When mercy comes to shelter me
E Dsus2 Dsus2(b5) D
You want the truth but do you want insanity?
Peering 'round corners paranoid calamity
Asus2 A
Hold on to what's real
Fmaj7
Your shelter comes to cover me
E Dsus Dsus2(b5) D
Finally in death do you become as once in life
Evil for evil do you pay the highest price
Asus2 A
Just let it burn
Cmaj7 D
When mercy comes to shelter me
E Dsus2 Dsus2(b5) D
My flesh and blood it's all that's left my heritage
From life to death to dust so through the woods I search
Asus2 A
Complete disconnect

Your shelter comes to rain on me
