Before The Rain

Bm            Em               A             Bm
A stormy summer is rolling close
Bm           Em         G        A
Lighting up this holy smoker
Bm            Em               A                       Bm
And if this drinking could ease the thinking
Bm     Em           G                         A
I toast to my home truth with this glass
Em  G               A           Bm        Em         G                  A       Bm
All rise you promises broken call my lovers by their names
Bm     Em                  G                     Em                        A
Lost hearts and words that are spoken to the wind
F#7                                    Bm
Which blows before the rain

Solo: Bm   Em    A   Bm   Bm  Em   G  A

Bm            Em               A             Bm
Little pin-pricks and how my ears bleed
Bm           Em                       G            A
On the bomb ticks that is my heartbeat
Bm          Em                 A               Bm
In every life-flash in every car crash
Bm     Em           G                         A
I hear the silence waiting to fall
Em  G               A           Bm        Em         G                  A       Bm
All rise you promises broken call my lovers by their names
Bm     Em                  G                     Em                        A
Lost hearts and words that are spoken to the wind
F#7                                         G   Em Bb Am
Which blows before the rain

Bm            Em               A             Bm
For all I carry are murdered secrets
Bm           Em                       G            A
The price of my blue star-eyed weakness
Bm          Em                 A             Bm
And so we travel and we unravel
Bm                Em               A                      Bm
Towards the place where all loose ends go
Em  G               A           Bm        Em         G                  A       Bm
All rise you promises broken call my lovers by their names
Bm     Em                  G                     Em                        A
Lost hearts and words that are spoken to the wind
F#7                                    Bm
Which blows before the rain
