Verse 1: (main riff)

Oh it's a happenin' thing, and it's happening to you

Full moon and thunder, Ribbons of blue

Ice on the window, ice in my heart

Foolin' with thunder, every time we start


C#                   E
  It's been raining    for so long
C#                   E
  It's been raining    for so long


Verse 2: (main riff)

Oh is it any wonder, the streets are dark

Is it any wonder, we fall apart

Day after day strange rain falls down

All over town ... rain coming 


C#                   E
  It's been raining    for so long
C#                   E
  It's been raining    for so long


E                  Eb     C#    C#  B
  Don't you go out in the rain
A        A   G#     F#      B
Don't go out in the pouring rain
E               Eb     C#     C#  B
  If you go out in the rain
A           A    G#  F#     B
We'll never have that time again


Verse 3: (main riff)

Oh is it any wonder, streets so dark

Is it any wonder, we fall apart

C#                       E
  All these feelings that seem so wrong
C#           E
  Remember we were so strong
C#                     E
  But it's been raining for so long
C#                  E
  It's been raining, I can't go on


E                  Eb     C#    C#  B
  Don't you go out in the rain
A        A   G#     F#      B
Don't go out in the pouring rain
E               Eb     C#     C#  B
  If you go out in the rain
A           A    G#  F#     B
We'll never have that time again
