Intro

(with alternating G bass note) (with alternating E bass note) repeat...

(with alternating G bass note)

Here come chilly preacher

(with alternating E bass note)

Stumbling 'gainst the wind

 Singing love, love is something to believe in

A prayer and the sea

And twenty tons of me

 Crying love, love is something to believe in

To my child of wonder rambling

All my crooked fingers pointing blame

 Let it all wash out in the rain

 Just let it all wash out in the rain

 Solo

Beyond the drunken focus of my aim

All my heroes twisting in the flame

 Let's let it all wash out in the rain

 Let it all wash out in the rain

Solo

One more for forgiveness

Twisting in the cold

 Singing love, love is something I believe in

Too much my defenses

Are dangling from the chain

 Oh but free, free is something to believe in

To my god I want my gypsy train

Too my child a howlin' tambourine

 Let it all wash out in the rain

 Let it all wash out in the rain

 Yes let it all wash out in the rain

 Let it all wash out in the rain
