(Intro) 
D   A   E x 4 

(Verse) 
          B                     D 
Theres an eagle and he keeps on flying  

         A                         E 
over the mountains capped in white snow. 

         B                        D 
In green valleys, lonesome people trying 

                     A                          E 
so hard to tell each other what they think they know. 

            B                           D 
With greedy hands they take each others money 

        A                     E          
Just to buy back his helpless pains.  (not sure of this last word) 



        C#m                    B 
In this land of flowing milk and honey 

          D       A      E     F# 
we wander thirsty in the rain. 

D       A      E 
Thirsty in the rain. 




(Verse) 
               B                     D 
Just like that eagle, now my soul is flying 

         A                              E 
over the valleys in the crimson morning sky. 

          B                          D                  
And there don't seem to be no use in struggling so hard 

          A                           E 
and there don't seem to be no reasons why. 

            B                           D 
Well i must fight you for the rich mans money 

         A                     E   
so I can buy back his helpless pains.  (not sure here either) 



(Chorus) 
    
         C#m               B 
Seems so useless and somehow funny, 

      D       A      E     F# 
to be thirsty in the rain. 

D       A      E 
Thirsty in the rain.

(Verse) 

          B                     D 
Fare thee well, now my own true lover, 

                 A               E 
my face you will never see it no more. 

          B                      D           
But there is one promise that is given 

                     A                    E 
that I will meet you on that shiny golden shore. 

       B                     D 
Golden shore, love where the eagle soars 

   A                       E 
so high above the fruitful plain. 



(Chorus) 

        C#m                B 
I'm the same friend that you knew when 

            D       A      E      F# 
we wandered thristy in the rain. 

D       A      E      F# 
Thirsty in the rain. 

D       A      E     F# 
Thirsty in the rain. 

D       A      E 
Thirsty in the rain.
