Am *C G F
I walk alone, down hard streets in this razor wind.
Am *C G F
Having the same streetlight conversations, again and again.
Dm Am G
With the same dark spirits, to the same dark angels.
Am F G Am F G
In this night rain city, in this night rain city.
Am F G
Where mercy fades and shadows fall.
Am F G Am F G
How did Heaven get so far from this night rain city?
Am *C G F
This once was a diamond, now it's just some old tired Rivertown.
Am *C G F
The wing and the wheel, man, they all left for higher ground.
Dm Am G
And they're not comin' back, they're never comin' back to this
Am F G Am F G
To this night rain city, this night rain city.
Am F G
Where mercy fades and shadows fall.
Am F G Am F G
How did Heaven get so far from this night rain city? -

G
When it storms like hell, and the river is risin',
F
I stand on the levee and I find myself prayin' that
G
This time, maybe this time, it'll just keep on comin'
F G
And wash all this sorrow away. Wash it all away.
Am F G Am F G
From this night rain city, this night rain city.
Am F G
Where mercy fades and shadows fall.
Am F G Am F G
How did Heaven get so far from this night rain city?
Am F G
It's always cold here, in this night rain city.
Am F G
And it's dark here, in this night rain city.
