Children Of Eden - I Am Not A Stranger To The Rain

[A]Shed no tears for me
There'll be [F#m]rain enough [E]today
I'm [A]wishing you Godspeed as I [D]wave you on your[E] way
[A]This won't be the first [D]time I've s[A]tayed behind to f[D]ace
The [E]bitter conse[D]quences of an [A]ancient fall from [D]grace
I'm a [A]daughter of the race of [D]Cain
[A]I am not strang[D]er to the [A]rain

[A]Orphan in the storm
That's a [F#m]role I've played [E]before
And I've [A]learned not to tremble
When I [C#m]hear the thunder [E]roar
I don't [D]curse what I can't [A]change
I just [D]play the hand I'm dealt
And when they [F#m]lighten up my r[A]ations
I [D]tighten up my belt
I won't [A]say I've never felt the [D]pain
But [A]I am not a strang[D]er to the [A]rain [F#m]

And [F#m]for the boy who's [D]given me the [A]sweetest love I've [E]known
I [F#m]wish for him another [D]love so [A]he won't be [E]alone
[Bm]But I am bound to walk [A]among the [F#m]wounded and the [E]slain
[Bm]And when the [F#m]storm comes cr[A]ashing on the [E]plain
I will d[Bm]ance before the [F#m]lightning to music [D]sacred and prof[E]ane

Oh, [A]shed no tears for [D]me
Light no [A]candle for my [D]sake
This [A]journey I'll be [D]taking now
Is [A]one we all must [E]make
[A]Shoulder to the wind
I'll turn my [D]face into the [E]spray
And [D]when the heavens [A]open
Let the [D]drops fall where they [E]may
If they [A]finally wash [D]away the [A]stain
From a [A]daughter of the [D]race of [E]Cain
[A]I am not a strange[D]r to the rai[A]n [F#m]     [D]
Let it rain![A]  [F#m]      [D]        [A]
