Another Mans Rain by Jackie Leven
Another Mans Rain
Tuning: E A D G B E
Capo: 4th fret
Key: B
[Verse 1]
G Dsus2 Cmaj7
Way out here on the ocean,
G Dsus2 Cmaj7
Fifty fathom down,
G Dsus2 Cmaj7
I hear voices tune in from America,
G Dsus2 Cmaj7
In some kind of human chain.
G Dsus2 Cmaj7
In some dark Atlantic pain.
[Chorus 1]
G Dsus2 Cmaj7
Suddenly I’m ten thousand miles away,
G Dsus2 Cmaj7
Standing in another man’s rain,
G Dsus2 Cmaj7
Standing in another man’s rain,
D C G
Standing in another man’s rain.

[Verse 2]
G Dsus2 Cmaj7
Every man has his flower,
G Dsus2 Cmaj7
Though he knows it or not,
G Dsus2 Cmaj7
From the mighty old English rose,
G Dsus2 Cmaj7
To the humble “forget-me-not”.
G Dsus2 Cmaj7
Humble “forget-me-not”.
[Verse 3]
G Dsus2 Cmaj7
I’m standing in a working class gay bar in Hamburg,
G C
Drinking ice-cold beer,
G Dsus2 Cmaj7
Men quietly talking to each other,
G Dsus2 Cmaj7
How did I get here?
G Dsus2 Cmaj7
Eeh, how did I get here.
[Verse 4]
G Dsus2 Cmaj7
I look out the ancient window,
G C
It’s Christmas time in the streets,
G Dsus2 Cmaj7
I see women shopping,
G Dsus2 Cmaj7
Some are broken, some are chique,
[Chorus 2]
G Dsus2 Cmaj7
Some have got the North sea pain,
G Dsus2 Cmaj7
From standing in another man’s rain,
G Dsus2 Cmaj7
Standing in another man’s rain,
D C Em D C D
Standing in another man’s rain,

[Verse 5]
G Dsus2 Cmaj7
I took a train from Oslo to Bergen,
G Dsus2 Cmaj7
In beautiful summer heat,
G Dsus2 Cmaj7
At the top of the line we stood by a glacier,
G Dsus2 Cmaj7
I was tasting a private defeat,
G Dsus2 Cmaj7
Tasting a private defeat.
[Verse 6]
G Dsus2 Cmaj7
Than me and Frank got back on board,
G C
I drank some more French wine,
G Dsus2 Cmaj7
We let the sun and the snow and we thawed in a berg,
[Chorus 3]
G Dsus2 Cmaj7
And I was standing in another man’s rain,
G Dsus2 Cmaj7
I was standing in another man’s rain,
D C Em D C D
I was standing in another man’s rain,
[Interlude]

[Verse 7]
G Dsus2 Cmaj7
Someone I knew once told me,
G C
Said I should beware,
G Dsus2 Cmaj7
Said my girl had secret clothes,
G Dsus2 Cmaj7
She wore when I was not there,
[Chorus 4]
G C
And some of them were stained,
D C G C
From standing in another man’s rain.
[Verse 8]
G Dsus2 Cmaj7
And when I asked her about it,
G C
She said: “You’re the one to blame”,
G D C
“You left me on my own,
G D C
“And I could not stand the shame”
G D C
“Nor could I feel you again”,
G D C
“And yes, I wore secret clothes”,
G D C
“And I could not bear the pain”,
G D C
“You left me standing”,
G D C
“Standing in another man’s rain”,
D C Em D C D
“Standing in another man’s rain”.
