1. It's raining again, I'm hearing it's pitter-patter, down,

C - A F B7

it's wet in the street, reflecting the lights and splashing feet.

C - B7 C

Nowhere to go, and nothing I have to do, have to do.

A C - A F A

It's raining again, I follow the Christmas lights, down town,

C - A C

I'm leaving the flow of people walking all around, round and round.

D F#m

I hear the sound of rain, falling in my ears,

C G

washing away the weariness like tears.

D F#m

I can feel my troubles running down,

C G

disappear into the silent sound.

A C - A F A

2. Just walking along, my clothes soaked right through to the skin,

C - A C B7

I haven't a doubt, that this is what life is all about.

C B7 C

The sun and the rain, scraps of paper washing down the drain.

D F#m

I feel the rain, falling on my face,

C G

I can say there is no better place

D F#m

than standing up, in the falling down,

C G

in so much rain, I could almost drown.

3. It's raining again, crack in the clouds reveals blue skies,

C - A C B7

I've been feeling so low, but now everything is on my side,

C B7 C

the sun and the rain, walk with me, fill my heart again.

D F#m

I hear the rain falling in my ears,

C G

washing away the weariness like tears.

D F#m

I can feel my troubles running down,

C G

disappear into the silent sound.

E G#m

I feel the rain, falling on my face,

D A

I can say there is no better place

than standing up, in the falling down,

D A

in so much rain, I could almost drown.
