Intro
Am A7sus4 (5x)

Am                  A7sus4
the rain came down
F                   A7sus4
the rain came down
Am            G         F  A7sus4
the rain came down on me
Am                   A7sus4
the wind blew strong
F                  A7sus4
and summer's song
Am          G     F
it fades to memory.

Am              A7sus4
I knew you when
F               A7sus4
I loved you then
Am            G        F      A7sus4
in summer's yawn, now hopeless
Am               A7sus4
you laid me bare
F                 A7sus4
and marked me there
Am          G      F  A7sus4
the promises we made

Refrain:
C         Am                   Em
I used to think, as birds take wing,
                  F                   C
they sing through life, so why can't we?
            Am                  Em
we cling to this, and claim the best
            F              C
if this is what you're offering
               Am                 Em      F
I'll take the rain, I'll take the rain,

Am                    A7sus4
the nighttime creases
F              A7sus4
summer schemes
Am            G      F   A7sus4
and stretches out to stay
Am                  A7sus4
the sun shines down
F               A7sus4
you came around
Am           G    F    A7sus4
you love the easy days

Am               A7sus4
but now the sun,
F                A7sus4
the winter's come
Am        G      F   A7sus4
I wanted just to say
Am             A7sus4
that if I hold
F                   A7sus4
I'd hope you'd fold
Am                  G         F   A7sus4
and open up inside, inside of me

Refrain:
C         Am                   Em
I used to think, as birds take wing,
                  F                   C
they sing through life, so why can't we?
            Am                  Em
we cling to this, and claim the best
            F              C
if this is what you're offering
               Am                 Em      F
I'll take the rain, I'll take the rain,

Am                 A7sus4
this winter's song
F               A7sus4
I'll sing along
Am                G       F      A7sus4
I've searched its still refrain.
Am              A7sus4
I'll walk alone
F             A7sus4
if given this
Am              G   F        C     A7sus4
take wing, and celebrate the rain.

Refrain:
C         Am                   Em
I used to think, as birds take wing,
                  F                   C
they sing through life, so why can't we?
            Am                  Em
we cling to this, and claim the best
            F              C
if this is what you're offering
               Am                 Em      F
I'll take the rain, I'll take the rain,
