(Because hope deserves an anthem)
[Verse 1]
E5 A5
Give me something I can feel
E5 A5
This time I wanna rain dance for real
E5 A5
Wash the dust of dirty wheels
E5 A5
Give me the waters that could help me heal and
E5 A5 E5
Hold the old me down
A5
(Give me the waters that could help me heal)
E5 A5 E5
Hold the old me down (Let the rain come down)
[Chorus]
D A
On the thirsty ground
E
Let the rains come down
D A
I want to drink the clouds

Like holy water
[Verse 2]
E5 A5
I felt like this when I was a boy
E5 A5
A firefly in Illinois
E5 A5
A pair of wings and an electric heart
E5 A5
Broken wings and a shot in the dark
E5 A5 E5
With that fire in our eyes
A5
(Lighting up the summertime sky)
E5 A5 E5
With that fire in our eyes (I felt so alive)
[Chorus]

And now I’m praying for rain
E
I want to make that change
D A
I got your blood in my veins
Like holy water

E5 A5 E5 A5 E5 A5 E5 A5
Like holy water
[Verse 3]
N.C. N.C.
My head is aching like a riot
N.C N.C.
40 days in the desert pain
N.C. N.C.
When I hear the lies I don’t buy it
N.C. N.C.
Still looking for the desert rain and I
E5 A5
Fight the fire with the fire
E5 A5
I want to taste your love again and I
E5 A5
Let the flood rise higher
E5
Wash the doubt away
[Chorus]
D A
And now I’m praying for rain
E
I want to make that change
D A
I got your blood in my veins
E5 A5 E5 A5 E5 A5 E5 A5 ...
Like holy water
