F#m A   C#m D 


[Verse 1]
F#m    A
 As the ships roll in
C#m     D
 Yeah, I'm headin' inland
F#m    A
 Heard the calling ping
C#m     D
 In my head
F#m    A
 Though the truth hits hard
C#m  D
 It's all we've got to face
F#m   A
 Let's delay the impact
     C#m       D
 And go to our place


[Verse 2]
F#m A
    'Cause, yeah, I like that
F#m A
    When you hold me slow
F#m A
    And, yeah, I know that
      C#m           D
 It's just a phase, but even so
F#m A
    I still want you
F#m A
    'Cause you're so damn real
F#m A
    And all else around is just
C#m            D
 Cardboard cutout sex appeal


[Pre-Chorus]
F#m A      C#m             D
      Yeah, I don't wanna be anywhere else but here
F#m A  C#m            D
      Alone inside, alone with your mind
F#m A      C#m             D
      Yeah, I don't wanna be anywhere else but here
F#m A  C#m             D
      Alone with your mind


[Chorus]
                    F#m  A
'Cause when it rains
        C#m                             D
Yeah, it pours, it pours, it pours, it pours
               F#m  A
And it rains long
               C#m          D
And I'm always back at your door
             F#m    A
Through the pain
                  C#m        D
And through the ecstasy and more
                      F#m  A
There's a flicker of light
            C#m            Bm
That keeps burning from our place before


  F#m     C#m  D  


[Verse 3]
F#m   A
 She's a tap on the window
C#m D
 At four in the mornin'
F#m  A
 When you've been up all night
C#m       D
 Paranoid she ain't callin'
F#m A
 I said, "You're like my brother
C#m   D
 In that we fight but never fall out"
F#m         A
 That's the kind of thing you say
C#m                               D
 When you're desperately swimming against the tide


[Interlude]
  F#m A   C#m D   x3
  F#m A   C#m Dmaj7 


[Chorus]
                    F#m  A
'Cause when it rains
        C#m                             D
Yeah, it pours, it pours, it pours, it pours
               F#m  A
And it rains long
               C#m          D
And I'm always back at your door
             F#m    A
Through the pain
                  C#m        D
And through the ecstasy and more
                      F#m  A
There's a flicker of light
            C#m            Bm
That keeps burning from our place before
  F#m        C#m  Dmaj7  
No, no, no


[Chorus]
                    F#m  A
'Cause when it rains
        C#m                             D
Yeah, it pours, it pours, it pours, it pours
               F#m  A
And it rains long
               C#m          Dmaj7
And I'm always back at your door
             F#m    A
Through the pain
                  C#m        D
And through the ecstasy and more
                      F#m  A
There's a flicker of light
            C#m            Dmaj7              F#m  A
That keeps burning from our place before
            C#m            D
That keeps burning from our place before
  F#m        C#m  Dmaj7  
No, no, no
