VERSE
Dm
Left on my own don't know where
Gm6/D
I should begin to look it's
Dm
involuntary instinct
Gm6/D
Controls my every footstep,
Dm
westward through haze The voice of
Gm6/D Dm
shadows whispers in my ears
Gm6/D C
Alaskan forests to the sea
PRE-CHORUS
C Bb A7
Keeping all faith alive I fall into the rain
Let me go, let me go
G F
Oh my soul drenched in the rain - the rain
CHORUS
E D/A
I light two candles in the window of my mind
E D/A
The wind that threatens I've no words left to describe
A
Resisting the fates
G D
When mercy comes to shelter me
E D/A
Over and over I am witness to the signs
E D/A
Evil's more focused as we near the end of times
A C
Praying so hard that your shelter comes to cover me
Am G F

VERSE
Dm
What kind of world is this that
Gm6/D
It should come down to this oh
Dm
Each day the pressure building
Gm6/D
In Biblical proportion
Dm
I've seen extremes from love to war
Gm6/D Dm
They both are walking here
Gm6/D C
And echoing prophetic song
PRE-CHORUS
C Bb
Plagues and famine and hate
A7
All fall into the rain, let it go
G F
The whole world floods in the rain - the rain
CHORUS
E D/A
We lose horizons they just vanish as we run
E D/A
Chess moves in silence glacial patience under gun
A
The marching of time
G D
When mercy comes to shelter me
E D/A
Fragments of truth are out there blowing in the wind
E D/A
I cry for loved ones and removal of the sting
A
I just can't let go
C
Your shelter comes to cover me

CHORUS
E D/A
In desperation we make moves and never know
E D/A
Their antidote is poison and my blood runs cold
A
Stoking the flames
G D
When mercy comes to shelter me
E D/A
You want the truth but do you want insanity?
E D/A
Peering 'round corners paranoid calamity
A
Hold to what's real
C
Your shelter comes to cover me
E D/A
Finally in death do you become as once in life
E D/A
Evil for evil do you pay the highest price
A
Just let it burn
G D
When mercy comes to shelter me
E D/A
My flesh and blood it's all that's left my heritage
E D/A
From life to death to dust so through the woods I search
A
Complete disconnect
C
Your shelter comes to cover me
