Sara Storer        Tell These Hands

 C                      F                        
Mum and Dad are home,  sitting round the table,  
 C                                G
Dad’s got his face buried in his hands
      C                            F                     
I’ve never seen Dad cry,  didn’t think that he was able,  
  C                               G
Gravel on the drive washed away again
           F                        C                       
And with skin off his fingers, the rain’s still coming down 
  F                               C                 G 
Another week just waiting, as he looks down at his hands

          C            F                  C             F       
Tell the rain to stop falling,  tell the banks to stop calling, 
          C                         F            G     G7
Tell the politicians where they can, put their plans
          C              F                C                F       
Tell the day to hold on longer, tell our sons we can’t be bothered 
          C                   F              G 
And then tell these hands to give up on the land
 G (hold)                 C        F       C       G
Tell,     tell   these   hands

 C                           F                             
Better take a look,    rain might be gone by morning
         C                                G 
Are you coming for a drive,  we won’t be long?
 C                               F                    
Arm out of the window,   “Giving In”  on the radio,  
  C                               G
Funny how that rain can’t keep us in
           F                     C                        
And with skin off his fingers, still the rain comes down, 
          F                               C                 G  
They’re driving through the inches on a track of  flooded ground 

          C            F                  C             F       
Tell the rain to stop falling,  tell the banks to stop calling, 
          C                         F            G     G7
Tell the politicians where they can, put their plans
          C              F                C                F       
Tell the day to hold on longer, tell our sons we can’t be bothered 
          C                    F              G 
And then tell these hands to give up on the land
 G (hold)            C      F                    C       
Tell,  tell these hands,   go on and tell these hands,  
 F                C     F              C    (hold)
Go on tell these hands,   tell  these hands.
