   D                          F#m/C#
   Sittin' in the rain, water on your brain
         Bm                            Bm7    E9
   Got a hole in your boat.  You're tryin' to stay afloat
               Gm
   has got you down.
            D
   I've got wind in my sail
          F#m/C#
   Rubber boots and a pail
        Bm
   I'll throw you a line
   Bm7  E9
   Rest assured that I
                      Gm
   Won't ever let you drown
   
   (CHORUS)
          D              D/C#
   'Cause when you're up against the wall
       G/B                   F#m/A   E/G#     Asus-A
   You know I'll be here for you,         for you
   D                  D/C#
   When you rise and when you fall
        G/B                F#m/A     E/G#     Asus-A
   I'll always be here for you,           for you
   
   
   D
   When the plans you make
        F#m/C#
   Fall thru' and take you
   Bm
   For a loop
           Bm7      E9
   Or some bird has flown the coop
                Gm
   And left you stranded
          D
   Just-a lean on me
         F#m/C#
   And together, you see
         Bm
   We'll carry the load
   Bm7  E9
   Even if we don't
              Gm    A
   Quite understand it
