Dmaj7               Bm7                  Em7                 F#7sus
So let your        “sweet rain” fall on   me, for I am         dying
We're desert        people and we're in   pain but we're still trying
We've been down for so long--We are       dry and we are       thirsty
       Dmaj7            Bm7             Em7         F#m7 Gm7
So you see, the Rain we must have is the tears you shed long ago

C/G      G6                  F/G
Farther along we'll find our way
      F                     Gm7 D# Gm7
Through all of the darkness today
F            C         D7sus        D7
The Sun of Reality has dawned upon eternity
Now... [chorus]
