Rainbreaker by The Morganfields (www.myspace.com/themorganfields), from the album,
Thrash Waltz (1993, I think)
This is a basic acoustic version of the song. You can add hammer ons wherever
they sound good. I do them throughout the song on the Em. I also like to play it
with capo on 2nd fret, but I believe the song is open.
Intro:
Verse 1:
Rainbreaker I am in your shadow
My Heart s on fire, and my lips are burning
Chorus:
But I didn t know the word of god could reach this far
Up through the mountains, to where we are
Didn t know the word of god could soothe like this
But I don t feel the word of god in me
Verse 2:
Rainbreaker I am in your shadow
My Heart s on fire, and my eyes are burning
Well I ve been up all night, waiting for the sun to rise
Rainbreaker in you, I have found my peace
Chorus:
Didn t know the word of god could reach this far
Up through the mountains, to where we are
Didn t know the word of god could soothe like this
But I don t feel the word of god in me
Bridge 2:
We together, we have found some truth
Without words, we have rediscovered you
A common thread in creation
Without words. Without words to confuse
Verse 3:
Rainbreaker I m alive in your shadow
The cactus grows, kickstart my soul
In the morning I will climb, the morning I will find
Rainbreaker in you, I have found my peace
Chorus:
I didn t know the word of god could reach this far
Up through the mountains, to where we are
Didn t know the word of god could soothe like this
But I don t feel the word of god in me x3
Rainbreaker... I am in your shadow
