The long awaited rains have ^Dfallen hard upon the thirsty g^Cmaj7round They've carved their way to where the wi^Dld and rushing river can be f^Cmaj7ound And like the rain, I have been ^Dcarried here To where the river f^Elows yeah ^A2 ^G ^Cmaj7 My heart is racing and my ^Dknees are weak as walk to the ^Cmaj7edge I know there is no turning bac^Dk once my feet have left the l^Cmaj7edge And in the rush I hear a vo^Dice that's telling me it time to t^Cmaj7ake the leap of faith So h^Bsusere I go

The last A and G chords are played in 2/4 time, so even though they are played for a 1/2 measure each, they are equal to a 1/4 measure compared to the rest of the chords in the song. Chorus:
