Intro: 
------ 
D/C 


      Red rain is coming down, red rain 
Cmaj7     D              Cmaj7     D 

      Red rain is pouring down, pouring down, all over me 
Cmaj7     D               Cmaj7         D              Em 


Verse: 
------ 
I am standing up at the water's edge in my dream 
     Em                 D/E                Em 

        I cannot make a single sound as you scream 
     Em                 D/E                 Em 

        It can't be that cold, the ground is still warm to touch 
     Em7                 A/E                       Em 

  We touch, this place is so quiet, sensing that storm 
     Em                      D/E                 C 

Chorus 

verse 
Well I've seen them buried in a sheltered place in this town 
They tell you that this rain can sting, and look down 
There is no blood around see no sign of pain 
No pain, seeing no red at all, see no rain 

Chorus 

Bridge:

.... 
.... 
Putting the pressure on much harder now 
To return again and again 

Just let the red rain splash you 
Let the rain fall on your skin 
I come to you defences down 
With the trust of a child 
                    Em 

Chorus 

And I can't watch any more, no more denial 
            C                  Em 

It's so hard to lay down in all of this 
        C 

Chorus 
Red rain is coming down 
Red rain is pouring down 
Red rain is coming down all over me 
I see it 

Red rain is coming down 
Red rain is pouring down 
Red rain is coming down all over me 
I'm bathing in 

Red rain coming down 
Red rain is coming down 
Red rain is coming down all over me 
I'm begging you 

Red rain coming down 
Red rain coming down 
Red rain coming down 
Red rain coming down 
Over me in the red red sea 
     D         Cmaj7   Dsus4 

Over me 
     Cmaj7 Dsus4 

Over me 
     Em 

Red rain
