[Verse]
G Bb C
Come son, take hold of my hand now
G Bb C
Come daughter, jump into my arms
G Bb C C D
Come sweet darling wife, move quickly I'll keep us from harm
G Bb C
Well, the water from the sky, it is coming
G Bb C
And it's rising each minute of the day
G Bb C C D
And soon our dear home and our pleasures will be washed away
[Chorus]
Em C
There's a new horizon and it's coming my son
Em F C D
Coming soon but I don't know when
Em C
When the sky will dry up and stop all this raging
Em D G
When we'll be coming back again
Bb C
The sun is trying to start shining
G G
But the rain is pouring down
Bb C
With the thunder and the lightning
G G
With the rain is pouring down
[Interlude]
G Bb C C Bb G (4x)
[Verse]
G Bb C
For two long weeks it's been falling
G Bb C
And rolling through streets of our town
G Bb C D
Forcing families to flee from their homes, pulling crops from the ground
G Bb C
We must leave behind our pleasures
G Bb C
Yes darling we must leave them all behind
G Bb C D
Come family now move quickly, higher ground we must find
[Chorus]
Em C
There's a new horizon and it's coming my son
Em F C D
Coming soon but I don't know when
Em C
When the sky will dry up and stop all this raging
Em D G
When we'll be coming back again
Bb C
The sun is trying to start shining
G G
But the rain is pouring down
Bb C
With the thunder and the lightning
G G
Where the rain is pouring down
[Interlude]
Bb C
The sun is trying to start shining
G G
But the rain is pouring down
Bb C
With the thunder and the lightning
G G
Where the rain is pouring down
[Long Interlude]
G Bb C G Bb C
As I stand at this lonely hilltop, and I stare at the town down below
G Bb C D
Tops of trees and muddy old roofs now all that do show
G Bb C
As the tears roll down my cheeks
G Bb C
And they match with the patter of the rain
G Bb C D
Look in the distance for the horizon, pray we'll come again
[Chorus]
Em C
There's a new horizon and it's coming my son
Em F C D
Coming soon but I don't know when
Em C
When the sky will dry up and stop all this raging
Em D G
When we'll be coming back again
Bb C
The sun is trying to start shining
G G
But the rain is pouring down
Bb C
With the thunder and the lightning
G G
With the rain is pouring down
