The Day The Rains Came To Schoharie

F   Am   F   Am

[Verse 1]

         F                   Am
Ooh, the rains came over the valley
        F               Am
And our barren land was drowned
      F               Am
So we gathered up our families
       F              Am      C
And we fled to higher ground


[Chorus]

              F                 C
Where all our sins were washed away
              Am                G
Where all our sins were washed away
              F                 G
Where all our sins were washed away
       Am
In the water


[Verse 2]

             F             Am
Church bells ring, is this our god
   F                Am
Of fire and jealous arms
F                Am
Warm within my (?heat?) blood
             F                 Am      G
It forced confessions from our hearts


[Chorus]

             F               C
Will all our sins be washed away
             Am              G
Will all our sins be washed away
             F               G
Will all our sins be washed away
       Am
In the water___
       F       Am
In the water


[Bridge]

                       G
Forty days and nights
                       F
I lost my faith and sight
          G               Am
I lost my faith and my sight, yeah


[Instrumental]

Am   G    F    Am    G  C  F    Am


[Verse 3]

         F                   Am
Ooh, the rains came over the valley
          F                   Am
Yeah, the rains came over the valley
      F                       Am
And I called your name in the valley
       F                       Am         G
Yes, I called your name in the valley, ay-ay


[Chorus]

             F               C
Will all our sins be washed away
             Am              G
Will all our sins be washed away
             F               C
Will all our sins be washed away
             Am              G
Will all our sins be washed away
             F               C
Will all our sins be washed away
             Am              G
Will all our sins be washed away
             F               G
Will all our sins be washed away
       Am
In the water
