Bmaj7               G#m7                  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            G#m7             C#m7         D#m7 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         B7sus        B7
The Sun of Reality has dawned upon eternity
Now... [chorus]
