G                   Bm
I’m waiting for the rain
D                    Em
I’m bracing for the thunder
D/F#                 Bm/G
A twig that wouldn’t sway
      A
In the wind
G              Bm
Awaken from a dream
D                Em
Arising from a slumber
D/F#              Bm/G
I’m far away from home
      A
On my own

Dm       C
Hear my yearning
Am              Bb
See the crimson flame
       Dm
Like a ruby
        Eb
It’s the hope
      F
In my eye

          Eb
If you go away

And I don’t see you anymore
                  Dm
I still wouldn’t sway

But I’d be
Gm          F
Missing you
                C
Now don’t be afraid
         Bb
You the flower couldn’t sting
                   Dm
You can hide in my shade
         G
Or maybe I
            F
Could I be safe
     D/A
In yours?

G                 Bm
A moment left to bloom
D                 Em
I wither by the morning
D/F#             Bm/G
Can we be staying here
      A
For a while

Dm       C
Hear my yearning
Am            Bb
See my raging light
        Dm            Eb
It’s my token that we won’t
        F
Say goodbye

          Eb
If you go away

And I don’t see you anymore
                  Dm
I still wouldn’t sway

But I’d be
Gm          F
Missing you
                C
Now don’t be afraid
         Bb
You the flower couldn’t sting
                   Dm
You can hide in my shade
         G
Or maybe I

           Eb
Would go away

And I don’t see you anymore
                  Dm
I still wouldn’t sway

But I’d be
Gm          F
Missing you
                C
Now don’t be afraid
        Bb
We are lasting yet awhile
                   Dm
I will give you a day
          G
Or maybe I
              F
Could I have one
      D/A
Of yours?

G                     Bm
I’m waiting for the rain
