    Am       C           E7              Am 
The water is rising, the tide is getting high 
Dm       E                Am 
All the memories passing by 
     Am         C        E7               Am 
The rain keeps falling, keeps on pouring down 
Dm     E            Am   Am  Dm  E  Am 
Everywhere I look around 


Yes the tide was high, made the river roll 
It was out of control 
It was passing through, heading me and you 
Just passing through 

    C         G        F 
     Take my hand and teach me to dance 
             G            Am 
     How to dance in the rain 
   C         G               F 
     All I know, there will be other times 
                G            Am 
     Where you just need a friend 
   Em                    Am  
     And the thunder is rolling 
   Em                     Am  
     Will the storm ever pass 
   Em                 Am 
     Well I won't be waiting 
   Dm      E              Am   Am  Dm  E  Am 
     Come teach me - to dance 


I’ve never seen - the river run so high 
No moment in my life 
Everywhere I look all over this town 
There's water on the ground 


     Take my hand….. 

There will be a day when the sun shine again 
Where we go back again 
The tears are gone, no clouds on the sky 
The ground it is dry 


     Take my hand…..
