                  F#5 
I can't stand the rain against my window
B5                        F#5
Bringing back sweet memories
           F#5 
Hey window pane do you remember
B5                    F#5
How sweet it used to be

E5
When we were together
F#5
Everything was so grand
               A5 
Now that we've parted
             Ab5                     C#5
There's one sound that I just can't stand...

F#5                 F#5
I can't stand the rain against my window
B5                        F#5
Bringing back sweet memories
                  F#5
I can't stand the rain against my window
B5                         F#5
'Cause he's not here with me

E5
Alone with the pillow
F#5
Where his head used to lay
A5
I know you've got some sweet memories
            Ab5                            C#5
But like a window you ain't got nothing to say
