Artist: The Dangerous Summer
Song: The Permanent Rain
Album: If You Could Only Keep Me Alive
Tuning: Dropped-D (DADGBE)

Label: Hopeless/Sub-City Records

This is an amazing song with incredibly touching and deep lyrics by a band not so well 
but will surely race up the scene quickly. This is about 95% correct. I don't have the 
notes in the beginning of the song or the singles crescendos in the outro, but still, good enough.

Lyrics:

So why the sudden change, and what�s this all about?
I know they speak your name, but where�s the sound right now?
I can�t stop praying you�ll hear me play.
I know that I�ll be with you there someday.

So where the hell�s my hope, and why can�t I just try?
You know I�ve lost a lot, but I won�t let this die.
I know I�ve got a friend up in the atmosphere,
and another reason not to fear the sky;
no, not tonight.

Can I pull out all the stops, and get out of this town?
I want to make you proud, but I really don�t know how.
I know it�s not helping to hear me say,
�I wish it was me in the car that day.�
Though something made me stop and think of what you said.
You know it meant a lot, but I was just a kid,
one with all these dreams of growing up
and playing music on the road.
I�ve been screaming all these years
and thinking of you both.

So where the hell�s my hope, and why can�t I just try?
You know I�ve lost a lot, but I won�t let this die.
I know I�ve got a friend up in the atmosphere,
and another reason not to fear the sky;
no, not tonight.

I wrote this note, because I never even told you.
You know I�ve got some things to sing about,like we were young
and holding true to all these songs that always made us pull through,
and now I�ve got some words that I�ll write down.
I�m sending this shit out.

So where the hell�s my hope, and why can�t I just try?
You know I�ve lost a lot, but I won�t let this die.
I know I�ve got a friend up in the atmosphere,
and another reason not to fear the sky;
no, not tonight, no, not tonight

So where the hell�s my hope, and why can�t I just try?
You know I�ve lost a lot, but I won�t let this die.
I know I�ve got a friend up in the atmosphere,
and another reason not to fear the sky;
no, not tonight, no, not tonight.

So where the hell�s my hope, and why can�t I just try?
You know I�ve lost a lot, but I won�t let this die.
I know I�ve got a friend up in the atmosphere,
and another reason not to fear the sky;
no, not tonight.
