(verse)
          B                     DTheres an eagle and he keeps on flying 

         A                         Eover the mountains capped in white snow.

         B                        DIn green valleys, lonesome people trying

                     A                          Eso hard to tell each other what they think they know.

            B                           DWith greedy hands they take each others money

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



(chorus)

        C#min                    BIn this land of flowing milk and honey

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

D       A      EThirsty in the rain.



(verse)
               B                     DJust like that eagle, now my soul is flying

         A                              Eover the valleys in the crimson morning sky.

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

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

            B                           DWell 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#min               BSeems so useless and somehow funny,

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

D       A      EThirsty in the rain.

          B                     DFare thee well, now my own true lover,

                 A               Emy face you will never see it no more.

          B                      D          But there is one promise that is given

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

       B                     DGolden shore, love where the eagle soars

   A                       Eso high above the fruitful plain.

        C#min                BI'm the same friend that you knew when
