What good is that happy lie?
C5        F5    C5       F5         C5
All you wanted from the start was to cry, girl.
G5              C5     F5 D5
It looks like another fall.
G5         C5                         F5       D5
Your good friends they don't seem to help at all.
G5              C5                F5 A?
You're feeling kind of cold and small,
      G5           C5       F5
just look up your rainy day man.
G5          C5                    F5   D5
It does you no good to pretend, a child.
G5             C5                 F5     D5
You've made a hole much too big to mend.
G5     C5                    F5       A?
And it looks like you lose again, my friend,

Call on your rainy day man.
     D5   C5            Bb5          A5
Now rainy day man, he don't like sunshine,
    D5          C5
he don't chase rainbows,
   Bb5            A5
he don't need good times, no.
D5        C5         Bb5         A5    Bb5     A5
Grey days rolling, then you'll see him , empty feeling,
G5       G5
now you need him.
G5              C5                   F5         D5
All those noble thoughts, they just don't belong.
G5         C5                    F5       D5
You can't hide the truth with a happy song.
G5                   C5             F5     A?
And since you knew where you stood all along,

just look up your rainy day man.
D5          C5             Bb5      A5
Now simple pleasures they all evade you,
D5             C5         Bb5        A5
store-bought treasures, none can save you.
D5        C5       Bb5     A5
Look for signs to ease the pain,
Bb5  A5               G5      G5
ask again, go on and pray for rain.
