A#m
Sunshine, blue sky, please go away,
My girl has found another, and gone away
D#sus2
With her went my future, my life is filled with gloom,
A#m
So day after day, I stay locked up in my room
Fm D#sus2
I know to you it might sound strange,
A#m
I wish it would rain (oh how I wish that it would rain)
D#sus2
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah
A#m
Cause so badly
I wanna go outside (such a lovely day)
Everyone knows that a man ain't supposed to cry
D#sus2
But listen, I got to cry, cuz crying, ooooooooh,
A#m
Is the pain, oh yeah
Fm
Yeah you know people, this hurt I feel inside,
D#sus2
Words, they, could never explain,
A#m
I wish it would rain (oh how i wish that it would rain)
D#sus2 A#m
Oh let it rain, rain, rain, rain (oh how i wish that it would rain)
Ooooooh baby
Let it rain (rain, rain)
Oh yeah, let it rain
Day in day out, my tear stained face
Pressed against my window pane
I search the skies, well, desperately for rain
Cause rain drops will hide my teardrops and no one will ever know
That I'm crying (crying) crying (crying)
When I go outside
To the world outside my tears I refuse to explain,
I wish it would rain (oh how I wish that it would rain)
Rain, rain, rain (oh how I wish that it would rain)
ooooh baby
Let it rain
I need rain to disguise the tears in my eyes
Yeah, You know I'm a man, I ain't got no pride,
Til it rains, I'm gonna stay inside,
Let it rain, Let it rain
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah...
Oh how I wish that it would rain...
