Intro:

      F   F4    F   F4
      /  /  /  /   /  /  /  /

        F                       F4
      (And the rain beats on my roof)
        F                      F4
      (And it does not ask for proof)

Verse 1:

       F                          Eb
      It's not that lovers are unkind
       F                              Eb
      She always said there'd come a time
                      Ab           Cm/G    C
      When one would leave and one stay behind

Verse 2:

      We both knew people sometimes change
      And lovers sometimes rearrange
      And nothing's quite as sure as change
       F                       (Bb )
      And the rain beats on my roof

Chorus:

       Bb             Ebm      Ab
      Look through my window (yeah)
      C#               Ab
         To the street below
      Bbm             F 
      See the people hurryin' by
                                         Dm   Bbm
      With someone to meet, someplace to go
             F               C4   C   [2:  C4 C C4 C]
      And I know I should let go

Verse 3:

      Ab                            F#
      She always said "I'm not like you
      Ab                            F#
      When love is dead for me it's through
                  Cb     Ebm/Bb        Eb                        F
      And I will find and love someone new"
                                      (and I will love somebody new)

[repeat chorus]

Verse 4 (chords as per verse 3):

      I must admit she knew her mind
      And it will not take her long to find
      Another place where the sun will shine
                              (another place, another place where the sun
                               will shine)

Coda:

        F                       F4 [continue to fade]
      (And the rain beats on my roof)
      (If I still require proof)
      (Well the rain beats on my roof) She's gone
      (If I still require proof) She's gone
      (Well the rain beats on my roof) Look through my window
      (If I still require proof) All the people
      (Well the rain beats on my roof) I love her
      (If I still require proof) She's gone
