Nanci Griffith - Comin down in the rain

^GFlipped into the wind Like the ashes of her cigar^Cette He got ^Dscattered and thrown on the breeze As he tried to for^Gget

And his heart never will be the ^Csame He got l^Dighter than air But he'll only come down in the ^Grain

^GStrung out and hung out to dry Laughin' under the ^Cline It's ^Dnot such a dignified place But he really don't ^Gmind

^GHe says with his feet on the ground He'd have nothin' to ^Cgain Claims he ^Dlikes it up there And he'll only come down in the ^Grain

^GComin' down in the ^Emrain Washin' outta the ^Csky Loaded down with the ^Dpain There just ain't no way to ^Gfly

^GYou can read him as clear As the wall where he once wrote his ^Cname It was ^Dright next to hers But it'll only come down in the ^Grain

^GBurnin' himself out on a limb Like a leaf in the ^Cfall He ^Dblazed for awhile Now he's feelin' all dried up and ^Gsmall

^GThe colors all gone Disappeared, near as quick as it ^Ccame He says ^Dhe can't stay up But, he'll only come down in the ^Grain

^GComin' down in the ^Emrain Washin' outta the ^Csky Loaded down with the ^Dpain There just ain't no way to ^Gfly

^GYou can read him as clear As the wall where he once wrote his ^Cname It was ^Dright next to hers But it'll only come down in the ^Grain

^GYou can read him as clear As the wall where he once wrote his ^Cname It was ^Dright next to hers But it'll only come down in the ^Grain
