My Break In The Rain

G                      Am                      C
I met you as a wanderer, a restless aching soul
G                       Am                       C
Like a storm out of Ohio, I blew in with the cold
D
You asked if I liked hockey
C
And if I wanted to go
G                            Am                          C
to see the minor leagues play since we talk all afternoon
G                            Am                            C
Kept a secret from our bosses know that they wouldn’t approve
D
You were too afraid to kiss me
C
So I had to make the move

[Chorus]
C         G       D      C
You were my break in the rain
            G          D
The hour of sun on our wedding day
C             G       D      C
You were the light on Laurel Lake
         G              D
Singing “Satisfied” in harmony
   Em                  C                        G
And I just wanted to be tethered to you endlessly

[Instrumental]
Am C
G Am C

[Verse 2]
G
You moved into my apartment
Am                  C
Been together a few months
G
It’s a dated little shithole
Am                          C
Four people living there at once

D
When we moved out in the springtime
C
Still had the Christmas tree left up
G
Begged you to walk with me through DC
Am                     C
Up 17th Street heading north
G
Over all the cherry blossoms
Am                         C
that had blown off in the storm
D
Put our feet into the fountain
C
Told you I loved you to your core

[Chorus]
C         G       D      C
You were my break in the rain
             G          D
The hour of sun on our wedding day
C            G        D      C
You were the light on Laurel Lake
           G           D
Singing “Satisfied” in harmony

C         G       D      C
You were my break in the rain
             G             D
My arch of hydrangeas and peonies
C             G       D      C
You were the light on Laurel Lake
            G        D
The summer Carolina humidity
    Em                 C                        G
And I just wanted to be tethered to you endlessly
