(barre) B# (barre) (barre) (barre)

(barre)                          B#
I don't know where I crossed the line
       (barre)
Was it something that I said
   (barre)           
Or didn't say this time
(barre)                   B#
And I don't know if it's me or you
      (barre)                    
But I can see the skies are changing
     (barre)         
In all the shades of blue
                                      
And I don't know which way it's gonna go

                            
If it's gonna be a rainy day
                                           
There's nothing we can do to make it change
                             
We can pray for sunny weather
                            
But that won't stop the rain
                                    
Feeling like you got no place to run
                                    
I can be your shelter 'til it's done
                              
We can make this last forever

                             
So please don't stop the rain
                       
(Let it fall, let it fall, let it fall)
                            
Please don't stop the rain
                       

 (barre)                     B#            
I thought that time was on our side
            (barre) 
I've put in far too many years
   (barre)         
To let this pass us by
(barre)                 B#
You see live is a crazy thing
            (barre)                              
There'll be good time and there'll be bad times
    (barre)          
And everything in between
                
And I don't know which way it's gonna go

                            
If it's gonna be a rainy day
                                           
There's nothing we can do to make it change
                             
We can pray for sunny weather
                            
But that won't stop the rain
                                    
Feeling like you got no place to run
                                    
I can be your shelter 'til it's done
                              
We can make this last forever

                             
So please don't stop the rain
                        
(Let it fall, let it fall, let it fall)
                          
Please don't stop the rain
                        
(Let it fall, let it fall, let it fall)
                           
Please don't stop the rain

                
Oh we're a little closer now
                     
And finding what life's it's all about
                         
Yeah I know you just can't stand it
                         
When things don't go your way 
                                 
But we've got no control over what happens anyway


                            
If it's gonna be a rainy day
                                           
There's nothing we can do to make it change
                             
We can pray for sunny weather
                            
But that won't stop the rain
                                    
Feeling like you got no place to run
                                    
I can be your shelter 'til it's done
                              
We can make this last forever

                             
So please don't stop the rain
                        
(Let it fall, let it fall, let it fall)
                          
Please don't stop the rain
                        
(Let it fall, let it fall, let it fall)
                          
Please don't stop the rain
                        
(Let it fall, let it fall, let it fall)
                              
Can't stop it, can't stop it, just can't stop the rain

(Let it fall, let it fall, let it fall)
             
Let it fall, please don't stop the rain
