Intro: / G - - - / - - - - / - - - - / Em7 - - - / Cadd9 - - - / x2
G (3)
There's a storm outside, and the gap between crack and thunder
Em7 Cadd9
Crack and thunder, is closing in,
G (3) Em7 Cadd9
is closing in. The rain floods gutters, and makes a great sound on the concrete
G (3)
On a flat roof, there's a boy leaning against the wall of rain
Em7 Cadd9
Aerial held high, calling "come on thunder,
G (2)
come on thunder"
Chorus:
G Em7 Cadd9 G (2)
Sometimes, when I look deep in your eyes, I swear I can see your soul
G Em7 Cadd9 G (2)
Sometimes, when I look deep in your eyes, I swear I can see your soul
G Em7 Cadd9
It's a monsoon, and the rain lifts lids off cars, spinning buses like toys,
G (3)
stripping them to chrome. Across the bay, the
Em7 Cadd9
waves are turning into something else, picking up fishing boats and
G (3)
spewing them on the shore. The boy is hit,
Em7 Cadd9
lit up against the sky, like a sign, like a neon
G (3) Em7 Cadd9
sign. And he crumples, drops into the gutter, heart strains,
G (3) Em7 Cadd9
legs twitching. The flood swells his clothes and delivers him on,
G (2)
delivers him on
Chorus

G Em7 Cadd9
There's four new colors in the rainbow, an old man's taking polaroids
G (3) Em7 Cadd9
But all he captures is endless rain, endless rain
G (3) Em7
endless rain. He says listen, takes my head and puts my ear to his
Cadd9 G (2)
And I swear I can hear the sea
Chorus x4
End on G
