box of rain chords
grateful dead

A Asus4 4

xd Am
look out of any window
Em C Em
any morning , any evening , any day

D Am
maybe the sun is shining
Em G Em
birds are winging , no rain is falling from a heavy sky

D G Am Em D
what do you want me to do , to do for you to see you through?
C D Am D
for this is all a dream we dreamed , one afternoon long ago

D Am
walk out of any doorway
Em C G
feel your way , feel your way like the day before

D Am
maybe you’ll find direction
Em
around some corner where
G A
it’s been waiting to meet you

D G
what do you want me to do?
Am Em D
to watch for you while you’re sleeeeeeeeping?
Am C G D
then please don’t be surprised when you find me dreaming too .

solo

D Am
look into any eyes
Em C G
you find by you , you can see clear to another day

D Am Em
maybe been seen before through other eyes
G A
on other days while going home

D G Am Em D
what do you want me to do , to do for you , to see you through?
C Em D G
it’s all a dream we dreamed , one after – noon , long A – go

D Am Em
walk into splintered sunlight , inch your way through
C G
dead dreams to another land

D Am Em
maybe you’re tired and broken , your tongue is twisted with
G A
words half – spoken and thoughts unclear

D G Am Em D
what do you want me to do , to do for you , to see you through?
Am C G D
a box of rain will ease the pain , and love will see you through .

G Am Em
just a box of rain , wind and water
C A D G D
believe it if you need it , if you don’t , just pass it on .

G Am Em
sun and shower , wind and rain
C D Em A
in and out the window , like a moth before a flame

D Em
and it’s just a box of rain
G D
i don’t know who put it there;
Bm G A
believe it if you need it , or leave it if you dare .

D Em
and it’s just a box of rain
G D
or a ribbon for your hair
Em G
such a long , long time to be gone
Em D C G D
and a short time to be there .
