DFall southern rAain
Through my fingDers
Through my Gveins
DFall southern rAain
And wash her awGay
Fall on this empty man
Drip like nails
Through my hands
Fall southern rain
And wash her away
BmHer love was a F#lullaby
BmThere was something deDranged in her eyes
CAnd her sugary skiBmn was hungry for cAhange
Fall southern rain
Through the gutters
And the drains
Fall southern rain
And wash her away
Fall like the southern snow
Touch the winter of my soul
Fall southern rain
And wash her away
Yes her love was a lullaby
And she looked kind of strange when she smiled
And her sugary skin was hungry for shame
EFall southern rBain
Through my fingEers
Through my Aveins
EFall southern rBain
And wash her awAay
Fall like the southern snow
Touch the winter of my soul
Fall southern rain
And wash her away
