Take This Rain words & music by Jackson Browne from the CD I'm Alive Intro x 2 It used to be there were two sets of footprints in the sand And there were two silhouettes in the sunset hand in hand But now here beside the sea are the footprints of three And I can't find my own among the directions they're all going Baby it's alright break this chain of love and madness It's alright take this rain as your new address It's alright take this rain it's alright take this rain 'cause I've been running all over creation out of my mind Trying to keep our hearts beating together all of the time Going crazier every day watching our love slipping away 'cause you're the only home I've ever wanted and the only light I've known But baby it's alright break this chain of love and madness It's alright take this rain as your new address It's alright take this rain it's alright take this rain You're going to be free solo: e---------------------------------------3---------------------| b---------------------------1s3s1-0-0-3---3h5-5-3-1-3s5-3h5-3-| g-2h4-4p2h4-4s5-5-4-4s2-2-2-----------------------------------| d-------------------------------------------------------------| a-------------------------------------------------------------| e-------------------------------------------------------------| Some people go through life seeing just what they want to see Take the way I went on believing you might still believe in me And I still want the love I always thought our love could be But some things can't be changed take this rain You're going to hear my voice in the morning calling your name And know my love and my desperation are one in the same And where our footprints used to be there'll be nothing but the sea And the tide and the wind and the open sky and the unbroken horizon Baby it's alright break this chain of love and madness It's alright take this pain and all your sadness It's alright take this rain it's alright take this rain It's alright take this rain you're going to be free At the intro & the end the is played for about 2 measures & the in the intro,verse,chorus & end is played (if you want to)as you hammer on the 1st finger on the 2nd fret, string. e--0-- b--0-- g--0-- d--0-- a--2-- e--3-- Any comments & suggestions please email [email protected] Regards Mick Baker
