_ [C#m] _ [A] _ [Bm] _ _ [A] When I think [D] _ [A] heaven's [Bm] delivering me [A] in a black [D]
wainbird, [A] I [Bm] think of flying [A] down into a [D] sea
of hens [A] and feathers [Bm] and all [A] other instruments of [D] faith and sex [C#m] and God [A] in the [Bm] belly of a black [A] wainbird.
[Bm] Don't try to [G] feed me, [Bm] cause [C#] I've been [G] here before [D] and I deserve [E] a little [A] more.
[Bm] I belong [D] _
[E] in the service [A] of the queen.
[Bm] I belong [D] _
[E] anywhere but [A] in between.
[C#] She's been [D] crying, [E] I've been thinking, [A] and I [Bm] am [D] the rain [E] king.
[D] I said, [A] Mama, Mama, [Bm] why am I [A] so alone?
[D] I can't go [A] outside cause I'm scared that [C#] I might not [A] make it [D] home.
_ [A] I'm alive, _ [Bm]
but I'm [A] sinking in.
[D] If there's anyone [A] home at your place, [Bm] darling, please invite [A] me in.
Don't [Bm] try to bleed [G] me, [Bm] cause I've been [G] there before [D] and I [E] deserve a little [A] more.
[Bm] I belong [D] _ [E] in the service [A] of the queen.
[Bm] I belong [D] _ _ [E] anywhere but [A] in between.
[Bm] She's been [D] lying, [E] just keeps [A] sinking, and I [Bm] am [D] the rain [E] king.
_ [Bm] _
_ And I [D] only want the same [A] as anyone.
[E] _
Mr.
Henderson [D] just keeps waiting [A] for [Bm] the sun.
Seems [D] night and the sleep begins [A] and ends and ends and [Bm] begins and ends.
After all [D] the dreaming, I just [A] want to come back [D]
home again.
[A] _ _ _ [Bm] _ [A] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [D] _
_ [A] _ _ _ _ _ _ [D] _
_ [A] _ _ _ [Bm] _ [A] _ [D] So every little [A] fish that swims is gonna [Bm] sink and down,
I was [A] underground, and [D] now the little thing that she [A] does to me [E] feels so good.
I [A] said, [D] every little bit [A] of loneliness that [E] I'm [A] in, it endlessly confuses me.
I still [Em] know she [A] will, I said, but when I [D] think of heaven,
[A] _ _ [Bm] _ [A] I said, when I [D] think of heaven,
[C#m] _ _ _ [Bm] [A] I think [D] of heaven,
[A] _ _ [Bm] _ _ [A] I [D] think of you, do you [A] think of me?
_ [Bm] _ [A] Now when I think [D] of heaven,
[A] _ _ [Bm] deliver [A] me in a black [D] winged bird.
_ [A] I think [E] of dying, [A] come on lay me down in [D] a field of [C#m] flame.
And Heather, [Bm] surrender up my [A] body,
[D] to the burning heart [A] of God and belly [Bm] of a black [A] winged bird.
Don't [Bm] try to bleed me,
[G] _ [Bm] cause I've been there [G] before,
[D] and I deserve [E] a little more.
_ [A] I [Bm]
belong,
[D] in [E] the service [A] of the queen.
[Bm] I belong,
_ [D] _ [E] anywhere but in [A] between sheep and [Bm] dying,
[D] I've [E] been drinking,
[A] and I [Bm] am,
_ [D] drinking.
[E] I said that [A] I [Bm] am,
_ [D] drinking.
[E] [A] Oh I said goodnight, [Bm] Elizabeth,
I'm [D] so sorry, [E] God,
[A] but I [Bm]
am,
the [D] rain king.
So why [A] don't you [Bm] come in out [A] of the rain?
