Am C D9 Am
Hey, big man, come down from there
Am C D9 Am
You know, with your hands, what you can do from there

I know that you loved one time long ago

And what happened to you then made your heart turn to stone
[Refrão] Am C
And there's a rain coming down
D9 F

And I know just how they feel

Cause when the water rises

They start to look for high ground
Am C D9 Am
Just like me when you come around

Hey, big man, big wind, don't blow
Don't come search for me I beg of you both

To the valley below
And I know just how they feel
Cause when the water rises
They start to look for high ground
Just like me when you come around

All you have to do
C D9 Am
Is think of me and you
C D9 Am
And all these things enter my dreams
C D9 D9

That there's a rain coming down
To the valley below
And I know just how they feel
Cause when the water rises
They start to look for high ground
Just like me when you come around
