Tom Waits - Make It Rain

Bm
she took all my money . . . and my best friend
E7 Bm
you know the story . . . here it comes again
F#7 E7
i have no pride . . . i have no shame
Bm
you gotta make it rain . . . make it rain!

Bm
since you’re gone . . . deep inside it hurts
E7 Bm
i’m just another sad guest on this dark earth ( 1 )
F#7 E7
i want to believe . . . in the mercy of the world again ( 2 )
Bm
make it rain . . . make it rain!

E7 Bm
the nite’s too quiet . . . stretched out alone
F#7 Bm
i need the whip of thunder . . . and the wind’s dark moan
E7 Bm
i’m not able . . . i’m just cain ( 3 )
C#7 F#7
open up the heavens . . . make it rain!

Bm
i’m close to heaven . . . crushed at the gate
they sharpen their knives . . . on my mistakes
what she done . . . you can’t give it a name
you gotta just make it rain . . . make it rain , yeah!

without her love . . . without your kiss
hell can’t burn me . . . more than this
i’m burning . . . with all this pain
put out the fire . . . make it rain!

i’m born to trouble . . . i’m born to fate
inside a promise . . . i can’t escape
it’s the same old world . . . but nothing looks the same
make it rain! . . . make it rain!

got to make it rain
make it rain
you got to make it rain
got to make it rain
you got to . . .

i stand alone here!
i stand alone here!
sing it :
make it rain!
make it rain!
make it rain!
