[Intro]
| G | C | G | C |

[Verse 1]
G                      C
 Quiet down let it melt inside
                G                    C
The world can't always turn your way.
G                   C       G
 What we try to keep outside comes in,
anyway.
C                      F                 C
 Its not as wet as the tears on your face
             C7           G
Fall showers wash you away
          F            C    C7 G
But its alright, its alright

[Chorus]
                   F           C
She don't mind the passing rain
                C7       G
We are bound to pass away
          F            C    C7
But its alright, its alright

[Verse 2]
G                       C
 We could see every star in the sky
            G                         C
Always paint just the angel at the surface up high
G                       C
 And your heart it beats in time
             G                      C       G
With the rain that falls on the roof outside
                      F                 C
Its not as wet as the tears on your face
                 C7            G
Fall showers wash  you away But
            F           C C7 G
its alright, its alright

[Chorus]
                   F           C
She don't mind the passing rain
                C7       G
We are bound to pass away
          F            C    C7
But its alright, its alright

[Verse 3]
G                        C
 If day breaks we'll wake in time
          G                 C
To see the grass soaked with morning light
G                         C
 The dawn breaks your cold hearts ice and
G                  C
 By noon she swears its alright cause
   G                         C
She locks it up till it poors out her eyes
G                    C
 It ain't nothing but foolish pride
            G
And you can see all the worry,
             C              G C G
That she carries by her side

[Chorus]
                   F           C
She don't mind the passing rain
                C7       G
We are bound to pass away
          F            C    C7
But its alright, its alright
G                   F           C
 She don't mind the passing rain
                C7       G
We are bound to pass away
          F            C    C7
But its alright, its alright

[Outro]
Am          F
  And maybe its just the cold,
C G Am            F               C G Am
      The lack of spring in my way
      F
Maybe I'm getting old
C G Am            F           C G Am
      Or tired of being afraid
          F            C G Am
But I got a lot of soul
             F            C G Am
They tell me I'm on my way
          F         C G Am
You can't be to sure
         F          C G Am
Our grip slips away.
           F             C              G
So keep it moving like a westbound train
    Am
Tie your heart to the sky,
F    C                   G
It's calling me your name
Am                F
Till the our grip slips away
C G Am         F         C G Am
      The grip slips away
         F
The grip slips away
C G Am         F
      The grip slips away
C G Am         F
      The grip slips away
C G Am         F
      The grip slips away
C G Am         F
      The grip slips away
C G Am         F
      The grip slips away
C G Am F C G Am F
C G Am F C G Am
