Bmaj7               Abm7                  C#m7                 F#7sus
So let your        “sweet rain” fall on   me, for I am         dying
We’re desert        people and we’re in   pain but we’re still trying
We’ve been down for so long--We are       dry and we are       thirsty
       Bmaj7            Abm7             C#m7         Ebm7 Em7
So you see, the Rain we must have is the tears you shed long ago

A/E      E6                  B/E
Farther along we’ll find our way
      D                     Em7 C Em7
Through all of the darkness today
D            A         B7sus4        B7
The Sun of Reality has dawned upon eternity
Now... [chorus]
