(Because hope deserves an anthem)

[Verse 1]
E5                       A5
Give me something I can feel
E5                       A5
  This time I wanna rain dance for real
         E5               A5
Wash the dust of dirty wheels
E5                              A5
  Give me the waters that could help me heal and
E5       A5      E5    
Hold the old me down
                               A5
(Give me the waters that could help me heal)
E5       A5      E5
Hold the old me down (Let the rain come down)


[Chorus]
               D      A
On the thirsty ground
                   E    
Let the rains come down
                    D      A
I want to drink the clouds
               E
Like holy water


[Verse 2]
       E5                      A5
I felt like this when I was a boy
E5             A5
  A firefly in Illinois
          E5                    A5
A pair of wings and an electric heart
E5                   A5
  Broken wings and a shot in the dark
          E5   A5      E5
With that fire in our eyes
                   A5
(Lighting up the summertime sky)
          E5   A5      E5
With that fire in our eyes (I felt so alive)


[Chorus]
                        D    A
And now I’m praying for rain
                    E
I want to make that change
                       D     A
I got your blood in my veins
               
Like holy water


[Bridge]
E        G               C
Sisters, sons, and daughters
             A              
Hold me down with the holy water
E         G             C
Blisters, guns, and fathers
             A
Hold me down with the, hold me down with the
E        G              C
Sisters, sons, and daughters
             A                              
Hold me down with the holy water
C             A                              
 Hold me down with the holy wa...
               E5  A5   E5  A5   E5  A5   E5  A5
Like holy water


[Verse 3]
N.C.                       N.C.
  My head is aching like a riot
N.C              N.C.
  40 days in the desert pain 
      N.C.                   N.C.
When I hear the lies I don’t buy it
N.C.                    N.C.           
  Still looking for the desert rain and I
E5                        A5
  Fight the fire with the fire
E5                     A5
  I want to taste your love again and I
E5                   A5
  Let the flood rise higher
E5                       
  Wash the doubt away


[Chorus]
                        D    A
And now I’m praying for rain
                    E
I want to make that change
                       D     A
I got your blood in my veins
               E5  A5   E5  A5  E5  A5   E5  A5 ...
Like holy water
