The strumming pattern is the real trick in this song, listen to it more 
than a few times and eventually it will make sense.


(listen carefully for this timing)


[Intro]

A   D  E A
D   E  D E A  D
E


[Verse 1]

           D              A                         
And so I'd stumble in the light
                     D
The night was always there
               E
To end all repetition

          D               A
Insane? I bother with the blinds
             D            E
Carry on and love will be here

                        Bm
I met this girl from my old town
                    E
But sadly she could see
                     A
I'm still a bunch of memories
                D
And shit that I believe


[Chorus]

                 Bm
And suddenly the rain
            E (let it ring out)
Is the only part you feel
                                A   D
And there's the darkness of the dream
D     E
Oh Lord
E               D               A   D
And there's the darkness of the dream
D     E
Oh Lord


[Verse 2]

            D              A 
But she was something of a flame
            D
Just telling me to quiet
                E
Excuses and the visions

         D                    A
Just let yourself out of your sight
                  D            E
Careless and some love will be here

                               Bm
And now you sleep and get some rest
                       E
From all the songs you make
                       A
They're all a bunch of mirrors,
                 D
And fuck it, I'm afraid


[Chorus]

                  Bm
That suddenly the rain
                     E
Is the only part you feel
                                A   D
And there's the darkness of the dream

            Bm                       E
She said, I ain't got no time for no broken believers
    A                    D
And lie like the foolish one
            Bm                        E
It's taking hours and days and I just want to hold you
    A              D
And end of a wait begun

                  Bm              E
I said I think of hours in everyone...


[Verse 3]

    D                      A
The letting go is here and now
                      D
The beauty is in your arms
                  E
No mind is out to wander

         D                    A
Just let yourself out of your sight
                  D            E
Careless and some love will be there

                                   Bm
And now there's this dancer in the dream
                   E
Just rowing in the night
                       A
And I can't believe how pretty
                        D
And I can't believe the signs


[Chorus]

                 Bm
When suddenly the rain
                     E (let it ring out)
Is the only part you feel
                              A    D
And there's a darkness of the dream


(strum once per chord)

F#m       Bm                   E
A fear of heart and all of its turnings
         A             D
And it's never letting go
F#m           Bm                       E
I'm sure I'll sleep when all this goes under
         A            D
But now, will I sleep alone?

(start strumming slowly)
                      E (let it ring out)
It only starts with a river

                                     A           D
But I know it's only waiting for the golden ground


[Break]

E    D  A    D
E    D  A    D
E    D  A    D
E    D  A    D
E

(this part is very hard to make out due to the drowned
 out guitar)
     A
It's wide and awake
        D
But I'm showing up late
       Bm            
On the way there was something
                E
That told me to stay
  A
I feed on the sunlight
    D                       Bm   E
But sunlight just drives me away
       A
In the loving game

    A
The summer is deep
        D
And the memories still
    Bm
The garden is full
        E
And I'm way over hills
  A                           D
I see there's a line that I'm walking
                 Bm    E
And I'm just the same

        A
It's an endless game
Bm                     E     D
In the darkness of the dream
