[Intro]
G    C    G  D  G
[Verse]
Standing in the fields of my Cfather
GStaring off into a cloudless Dsky
The Gharvest all around is dry and Cchoking
GWaiting for the Drain to come Gdown
[Verse]
I can hear the rhythm of my Cmother
GHold your head up through the hardest Dtime
While we Gworried then, troubles went unCspoken
She was Gwaiting for the Drain to come Gdown
[Chorus]
It's a Cbeautiful Gsound
Every Cdrop, every trickle heals the Dground
Like a Clong lost hero Gstrolling into EmtownC  
With the Drain coming Gdown
[Verse]
Remembering the struggles of my Cbrother
GAll the years he tried, he's made Da mistake
And Gtwice he never put paid to his Cliving
GWaiting for the Drain to come Gdown
[Chorus]
It's a Cbeautiful Gsound
Every Cdrop, every trickle heals the Dground
Like a Clong lost hero Gstrolling into EmtownC  
With the Drain coming Gdown
[Verse]
I keep a faded picture of my Cfather
GTaken quite awhile before he Ddied
His Gweathered eyes looking out on Cthe horizon
GWaiting for the Drain to come Gdown
Like all the generations beCfore him
GWaiting for the Drain to come Gdown
[Chorus]
It's a Cbeautiful Gsound
Every Cdrop, every trickle heals the Dground
Like a Clong lost hero Gstrolling into EmtownC  
With the Drain coming GdownC  
With the Drain coming Gdown
