Gutters Full Of Rain - David Gray
(Capo on 4th fret)
B E B E B F#/A# B
B E
A gutter full of rain
B E
an empty picture frame
B E F#/A# E
a house out at the edges of the city
B E
never noticing the war
B E
'til it's right there at your door
B F#/A# B
and suddenly your hands are bloody
B E
I was seeking to possess
B E
now another girls caress
B
is on your flesh
E F#/A# E
the bitterness is tasted
B E
there's nobody in your chair
B E
no hand to touch my hair
B F#/A# B
the sun even the air seems wasted
C#
Let it go now
G#m G#m+
Let it all slip away
E B
and we'll start it all over again
C#
Me like a million
G#m G#M+
others before
F#/A# E
trying to make sense of the rain
Were these twenty years a dream
was it ever as it seemed
get to wonder if it really existed
cause the thief who stole my life
has taken to my faith
I can see now how the world gets
twisted
Let it go now
Let it all slip away
and we'll start it all over again
Me like a million
others before
trying to make sense of the rain
In spite of all the shame
some times I hear your name
I think of us when we were younger
then I'm shutting out the noise
and I'm trying to hear the voice
that used to tell me love was
stronger
Light another cigarette
but the one I got's still lit
I can't seem to keep my fingers
steady
Never noticing the war
'til it's right there at your door
and suddenly your hands are bloody.
