Letter in the Rain Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
The [C]morning bright [Am]and still has laid
a [C]frost across [Am]the hill
And the [C]glory of it [F]takes my breath [C]away
The birdsong in the [Am]trees floating
on the [C]ghost [Am]of a breeze
Says, "You're [C]lucky to be
a [F]creature alive [C]today"
The rosy-fingered dawn [G]dawn is
changing [F]color in the [C]east
Like in ancient days,
we'll [F]never see [G]again
[C]Once we were together,

[Verse 2]
[Am]
that I do re[C]mem[Am]ber
All the [C]rest is like a [F]letter in [C]the rain[F][C]

[Verse 3]
So I go to check my [Am]snares,
see what [C]night caught [Am]unawares
I [C]take the path [F]along the creek [C]again
In the garden of delight,
[Am]a snake slit[C]hered into sight[Am]
So [C]we left Eden and [F]headed for the [C]plain

[Verse 4]
Day by day and night [G]by night,
she [F]didn't leave [C]my side
Now she never wants
to see [F]my face [G]again
Once we [C]spoke in love's low

[Verse 5]
[Am]tongue,
all the [C]bells at midnight [Am]rung
All the [C]rest is like a [F]letter
in [C]the rain[Dm]

[Verse 6]
There's a [Em]river somewhere
[F]up around [G]the bend[Dm]
When [Em]it hurts, that river's [F]al ways been my [G]friend[Em][G][C][Am]
[C][Am]

[Interlude 1]
[C][F][C][F][C]
[Am][C][Am][C][F][C]

[Verse 7]
[C]The frost has gone now [G]from the hill,
like a [F]vision in a [C]dream
You never know when [F]glory
will [G]come again

[Verse 8]
I re[C]member her dark [Am]stare and
a [C]braid of nut-brown hair
[Am]hair
All the [C]rest is just a [F]letter in [C]the rain
