Lyrics
Verse 1:
[G] Promised he'd forever be by my side,
[D] But found him with another, could no longer hide.
[Em] Heartache echoes in this silent country lane,
[C] His deceit has left an indelible stain.
Chorus:
[G] Here I stand in the pouring rain, wading through the memories and pain.
[D] Love splintered, leaving just a frame; my heart won't be the same.
[Em] Barefoot, feeling every stone, his love may be gone, but I've grown.
[C] In the storm, in the wild terrain, I find strength in the pouring rain.
Verse 2:
[G] His whispers were soft, his embrace seemed true,
[D] But beneath the surface, his intentions askew.
[Em] With every falsehood, he thought he'd have me tamed,
[C] But I'm not a prize in his twisted game.
Chorus:
[G] Here I stand in the pouring rain, no longer bound by love's old chain.
[D] Promises burnt, leaving just an ember's glow; I'll let go and let the winds blow.
[Em] Facing forward, no longer in vain, dancing to the rhythm of the rain.
[C] With each drop, with each refrain, I rebuild in the pouring rain.
Bridge:
[Am] Raindrops cleanse the scars of his deceit,
[Em] rivers rise as I find my feet,
[Am] With every storm, there's a new dawn,
[Em] a brighter day to lean upon.
[Am] I'm not defined by past heartache's streak,
[D] I'm a country girl, [G] fierce, not weak.
Chorus:
[G] Here I stand in the pouring rain; with every drop, I release the pain.
[D] From his shadows, I've broken free; now the rain sings a lullaby to me.
[Em] Through the mist, a new path is plain, a journey guided by the rain.
[C] With each step, with each new lane, I rise stronger in the pouring rain.
Outro:
[G] Farewell to a love that lost its shine,
[D] Thought he'd dim my spirit, but I realigned.
[Em] In the midst of the storm, I stake my claim,
[C] With grace, with fire, I redefine my name.
[G] Here I stand, no longer astray,
[D] Reborn in the [C] pouring rain.
