 A#
Sunshine, blue skies, please go away.

My girl has found another and gone away.

 D#
With her went my future, my life is filled with gloom.

  A#
So day after day, I stayed locked up in my room.

                F                                 D#
I know to you it might sound strange.

                     A#
But I wish it would rain. (How I wish that it would rain)

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah


 A#
'Cause so badly I wanna go outside. (Such a lovely day)

But everyone knows that a man ain't suppose to cry, listen.

 D#                                                           A#
I gotta cry 'cause cryin' eases the pain, oh yeah.

                      F                                D#
People this hurt I feel inside, words can never explain.

                                   A#
I just wish it would rain. (Oh, how I wish that it would rain)


A#
Day in, day out, my tear stained face

Pressed against the window pane.

My eyes search the skies, desperately for rain.

                D#
'Cause raindrops will hide my teardrops.

And no one will ever know.

                 A#
That I'm cryin'... cryin' when I go outside.

               F                                            D#
To the world outside my tears, I refuse to explain.

                                    A#                                             D#    A#
Oh, I wish it would rain. (Oh, how I wish that it would rain)

Ooo, baby.
