(Rain rain, go away, come again another day)

        A             F#m
        Early in the morning
              D                   E            A   E
        The sun was up and the sky was very blue 

        Without a warning 
        As I looked out, my thoughts returned to you. 
   
               A                           C#                 
            A noise in the city made the children (run) 
                 D                H 
            And hide themselves away 
                  A                 C#m                  Hm   E
           And thunder boomed and lightning filled the sky.


        Looking from this window 
        A thousand rivers running past my door 
        Standing on an island 
        Looking for someone upon the shore 
    
           I can see it very clearly, 
           Nothing's really changed 
           Then lightning strikes across an empty sky.


        Chorus:
                 A                  Dm 
                Ooohh, the rain is falling 
                 A                  Dm
                Ooohh, the rain is falling 
                 A         G#      C#m         
                Ooohh, the rain is falling 
                         Hm              Dm      A
                Will it wash away those lonely tears?
                                                        [Dm A Dm]

        (It's raining, it's pouring, the old man is snoring)

        With their brand new time transporter 
        They'll think maybe I fought to get away 
        But with all their great inventions 
        And all their good intentions, here I stay 
       
           Down on the corner where the sun had shone 
           The people gathered round 
           Then scattered as the raindrops hit the ground.

        Chorus.

        (It's raining, it's pouring, the old man is snoring)

         Chorus.

        (It's raining, it's pouring, the old man is snoring) 
        (Rain rain, go away, come again another day)
