Verse 1 

        E 
My left windshield wiper’s twisted  
A                        E 
And it ain’t workin’ too well. 
             C#m                            A 
And Lord the latest lie I’m drivin’ through tonight  
                        B 
Is giving my conscience hell… 
    A   
The coffee’s tastin’ salty from the tears –  
                    E 
But they’re not for myself. 
        D                  A 
Lord we both know who’s to blame. 
        E 
So when she wakes up tomorrow  
B                      E 
Can you ease up on the rain? 



Refrain: 

               C#m 
Ease up on the rain  
A                                  E 
She could use some sunshine in her life. 
                  F#m 
Help her pass the pain  
  A 
A little bit of comfort 
      E               D              A 
After everything that I have put her through. 
        E 
If it’s all the same to you 
B                        E 
Could you ease up on the rain? 


Verse 2 

       E 
It’s a little past midnight  
      A                            E 
But a long way from settin’ things straight. 
                 C#m 
And Lord there’s nothing like a heartache  
A               E 
For keeping you awake. 
       A 
Lord I don’t think she expects the emptiness  
                          E 
That’s coming up with the dawn. 
         D               A 
When she figures out I’m gone. 
          E 
She might need a little mercy  
B                           E 
So could you ease up on the rain? 



Refrain: 

               C#m 
Ease up on the rain  
A                            E 
She use some sunshine in her life. 
                  F#m 
Help her pass the pain  
  A 
A little bit of comfort 
      E                 D              A 
After all the hell that I have put her through. 
        E                        
If it’s all the same to you Lord  
B                        E     A 
Could you ease up on the rain? 
         E 
Lord she needs a little mercy  
B                        E 
Could you ease up on the rain?
