Am * C  G  F  2X

        Am  *C                        G           F
I walk alone, down hard streets in this razor wind.
           Am                      *C       G          F
Having the same streetlight conversations, again and again.
                     Dm  Am                    G
With the same dark spirits, to the same dark angels.

           Am     F   G             Am    F    G
- In this night rain city, in this night rain city.
             Am         F      G
Where mercy fades and shadows fall.
         Am     F      G             Am    F    G
How did Heaven get so far from this night rain city? -

                  Am  *C                          G         F
This once was a diamond, now it's just some old tired rivertown.
                  Am  *C                G                F
The wing and the wheel, man, they all left for higher ground.
                        Dm  Am                      G
And they're not comin' back, they're never comin' back to this

           Am     F   G           Am    F    G
- To this night rain city,  this night rain city.
             Am         F      G
Where mercy fades and shadows fall.
         Am     F      G             Am    F    G
How did Heaven get so far from this night rain city? -

Am  F  G  5X
 
          G     
When it storms like hell, and the river is risin',
    F         
I stand on the levee and I find myself prayin' that
 G                 
This time, maybe this time, it'll just keep on comin'
     F                    G
And wash all this sorrow away. Wash it all away.

            Am     F   G           Am    F    G
-From this night rain city,  this night rain city.
             Am         F      G
Where mercy fades and shadows fall.
         Am     F      G             Am    F    G
How did Heaven get so far from this night rain city? -
                                Am    F    G
It's always cold here, in this night rain city.
                             Am    F     G
And it's dark here, in this night rain city.
