Gutters Full Of Rain - David Gray


(Capo on 4th fret)
               /  
  		      
A gutter full of rain
  		      
an empty picture frame
  		          	 /	 
a house out at the edges of the city
      		      
never noticing the war
      		      
'til it's right there at your door
      		   /    	
and suddenly your hands are bloody


  		      
I was seeking to possess
  		      
now another girls caress
  
is on your flesh
    		  /		
the bitterness is tasted
  		      
there's nobody in your chair
  		      
no hand to touch my hair
      		   /    	
the sun even the air seems wasted


Let it go now
	        +
Let it all slip away
	   		     
and we'll start it all over again

Me like a million
          +
others before
/			   
trying to make sense of the rain

Were these twenty years a dream
was it ever as it seemed
get to wonder if it really existed
cause the thief who stole my life
has taken to my faith
I can see now how the world gets
twisted

Let it go now
Let it all slip away
and we'll start it all over again
Me like a million
others before
trying to make sense of the rain

In spite of all the shame
some times I hear your name
I think of us when we were younger
then I'm shutting out the noise
and I'm trying to hear the voice
that used to tell me love was
stronger

Light another cigarette
but the one I got's still lit
I can't seem to keep my fingers
steady

Never noticing the war
'til it's right there at your door
and suddenly your hands are bloody.
