Before It Starts To Rain

Be careful my love, you've had enough
Before you say things you don't mean
With the water rising through harder times
I'm afraid we're in too deep
Before it starts to rain
Before it starts to rain

Late at night, your car's in drive
No last words, no goodbye's
I'm a fool to [C7]wait for [Dm7]you
I'd to [C7]drown in your lies
No compromise
Before it starts to [C7]ɾain
Help me board up the windows
Before you [A7tear 'em [A]down, before it ɾains

Before it starts to [C7]ɾain
Don't you [A7go away
How I beg for [Dm7]you [A7to [C7]stay
I've been through hell before, seen water high
God knows, I could use sunshine

Before it starts to [C7]ɾain
Help me board up the windows
Before you [A7tear them [A]down
Right before it ɾains
Help me ɾeach higher ground
Before it starts to [C7]ɾain
