D         Bm          G    D
I turn my face to the waterline
D         G    A     D
I turn my face far away
D         Bm      G        D
This I realize is not the way
D              G          A       G
Where the dark lies, push it way
 
 
          A7
Hard by desire
      Em        D(/F#)         G
Hard times and just a drop of rain
                A7
so let the rain come on
 Em            G        D
behind, behind runs the sun
 
 
I put my hand on the red dirt land
I work the land where my father tread
he said ''don't be afraid when the snake is at hand
the serpent is kind, compared to man''
 
Hard by desire
Hard times, just a drop of rain
so let the rain come on
behind, behind runs the sun

the littlest light is the break of day
the littlest lamp finds a way
all of our friends across the land
alive in the light and I called her there
 
Hard by desire
Hard times, just a drop of rain
so let the rain come on
outside, outside comes the sun
 
Hard by desire
Hard times and just a drop of rain
so let the rain come on
outside, outside runs the sun
