*from 'Utter Madness' (1986)*
*CAPO 3rd FRET*
(Original Key: )
Intro:
Do de do do de, do do do,
Do de do de do de, do do do.
Verse 1:
It's raining a-gain;
I'm hearing it's pitter-patter, down.
It's wet in the street;
Reflecting the lights and splashing feet.
Nowhere to go,
And nothing I have to do, have to do.
Verse 2:
It's raining a-gain;
I follow the Christmas lights, down town.
I'm leaving the flow,
Of people walking all around, round and round.
Chorus 1:
I hear the sound of rain, falling in my ears,
Washing away the weari-ness, like tears.
I can feel my troubles running down;
Disappear into the silent sound.
Verse 3:
Just walking a-long;
My clothes are soaked right through to the skin.
I haven't a doubt,
That this is what life is all a-bout;
The sun and the rain,
Scraps of paper washing down the drain.
Chorus 2:
I feel the rain, falling on my face,
I can say there is no better place.
Than standing up, in the falling down,
In so much rain, I could almost drown.
Interlude:
,
Verse 4:
It's raining a-gain;
A crack in the clouds reveals blue skies.
I've been feeling so low,
But now every-thing is on my side;
The sun and the rain,
Walk with me; fill my heart again.
Chorus 3:
I hear the sound of rain, falling in my ears,
Washing away the weari-ness, like tears.
I can feel my troubles running down;
Disappear into the silent sound.
I feel the rain, falling on my face,
I can say there is no better place.
Than standing up, in the falling down,
In so much rain, I could almost drown.
Coda:
Do de do do de, do do do,
Do de do de do de, do do do.
Do de do do de, do do do,
Do de do de do de, do do do.
