Stranger To The Rain Chords

(ver. 1)
Stephen Schwartz
[Intro]
  C F Bb      C F Bb
 
[Verse 1]
[YONAH]
  C     F         Bb
Shed no tears for me
            C    F      Bb
There'll be rain enough today
    C       F      Bb
I'm wishing you godspeed
     Am               Bb
As I wave you on your way
G                 F
This won't be the first time
     C                F
I've stayed behind to face
    G           F
The bitter consequences
      Am                F
Of an ancient fall from grace
      G              C       F   G
I'm a daughter of the race of Cain
F           Bb     G       F
I am not a stranger to the rain
 
 
[Verse 2]
C      F      Bb
Orphan in the storm
         C         F      Bb
That's a role I've played before
C            F      Bb
I've learned not to tremble
       Am               Bb
When I hear the thunder roar
        C          F       Bb
I don't curse what I can't change
       C        F        Am
I just play the hand I'm dealt
          G       F      Bb
When they lighten up the rations
  C             Bb
I tighten up my belt
        Am             Bb         C  F
I won't say I've never felt the pain
    C          Bb     G        F
But I am not a stranger to the rain
 
 
[Verse 3]
    Am                F
And for the boy who's given me
    G                  Em
The sweetest love I've known
  Am           F
I wish for him another love
   D
So he won't be alone
        Bb            Am
Because I am bound to walk
          F               Bb
Among the wounded and the slain
    Dm
And when the storm comes
Am       F      G
Crashing on the plain
       Dm               Em
I will dance before the lightning
         F             Gm    G
To music sacred and profane, oh
 
 
[Verse 4]
C       F         Bb
Shed no tears for me
         C      F      Bb
Light no candle for my sake
     C       F              Bb
This journey I'll be making now
   Am              Bb
Is one we all must make
G               F
Shoulder to the wind
             C      F      Bb
I'll turn my face into the spray
    C        F       Bb
And when the heavens open
        C                     F   Dm
Let the drops fall where they may
        C       F    Bb       C    F
If they finally wash away the stain
       C        F      Bb      C   F
From a daughter of the race of Cain
Bb F          C       Bb
I    am not a stranger
       C   F Bb
To the rain
 
 
[Outro]
      C F Bb  C
Let it rai-------n
