****Beginning notes at the bottom of page.

Verse 1:

                                        
One time I tried to sing about spring and a storm
                          
But you know,     how it goes
                                          
Blah blah blah blah blah blah, blah-blah-blaaah
          
All along
                                                         
Won't you pleeeease stop complaining? I'm playing a song
             A                   D--Dm         A                 D--Dm
But all the rain comes down the same   falling to from where it came
                                               
On the ground then back around up into the sky


Verse 2:

                                                            
I wish you could've heard the music, when the clouds growled overhead
                                         
I finally felt enthusiastic, I finally felt alive
                                          
Blah blah blah blah blah blah, blah-blah-blaaah
                    
So you said
                                                      
Would it pleeeease you to listen, to thunder instead?
         A                   D--Dm          A               D--Dm
Man the rain came down that day    and it drained my soul away
                                        
And I wondered why I even bothered to try



                  


Verse 3:
 
                                
Mr. Moon,    tell us about the sky
                                             
The sky...is deep..and dark...and eternally high
                                            
Many people think that's where you go when you die
  
Do you?
         A                     D--Dm
Well I think you return to obscure
                                
Or wherever you were, before you were
    A                D       Dm          A  D--Dm
But I won't let you lose yourself in the rain
                                                            
We have so much left to sing there's a storm for every spring
                                           
All you see and you and me became from a star
                                 
You're a star,      You're a star

Voice 3: 
                                    
Create until nothing is left to create and
                                         
The universe bursts with an overworked sigh then
                                       
Pretend to pretend to re-crown the creation and
                                               
Sing the same thing 'til the clouds start to cry and then
                         
Over and over and over again and then
         
Over and over and
        
Never again
