_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [D] _ _ [A]
I might sound like I'm finding God in this song. _
_ I might find I'm [D] stumbling [A] into St.
Peter's Cathedral in this song. _ _
_ It might sound like I'm having a conversation with the big guy up there, but the truth of
the matter is, _ this song is for a friend of [D] mine.
He's an [A] old Jewish communist guy named Pete.
_ [Bm] The song's called The Little Rain.
Here we go.
_ _ _ [A] _ I was getting desperate.
Yes, [F#] I was.
[A] Yes, I _ [D] was.
A couple of times.
I was having [A] a couple bad days.
[A] I was hurting in a mosque.
_ In a mosque.
Hey!
_ I stumbled in St.
[F#m] Peter's Cathedral.
Oh, [A] there I was.
_ [D] _ I never [A] tried religion.
But man, try anything once.
_ [D] _ _ _ [A] You were smiling.
_ [Bm] _ You were [F#m] wearing a t-shirt.
_ [D] _ _ From a [A] rally in 1992.
[E] _ _ And this is what Pete had to say to [A] me.
_ When the rain started pouring down.
When the rain starts coming down, oh yeah. _
[D] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ Down! _ _ _
_ When the rain starts coming down, _ oh yeah.
Do you know the words by now?
[D] A little rain, it's bringing [A]
me down.
_ [D] _ _ _ [Am] _
_ [A] _ _ [F#m] _ _ _ _ [A] _
He said, [C#] let's meet [F#] in the _ _ [A] morning.
_ [D] Get some sleep, _ so you [A] can clear your head.
Clear that up now.
_ _ The morning sun had the [F#] sidewalks scorched.
[A] Yes, it did.
_ [D] So you knew the clouds would be rolling in [C#] at 5 or [A] 6, at 5 or 6 PM.
[C#] _ _ [D] _ _
At [C#m] the diner, _ [B] when I [F#] started crying, _ _ [D] _ well, Pete said, you got a [E] friend in me. _
_ _ _ _ _ [A] _ When the rain starts coming down, come on, let's go!
A [D] _ little rain, _ it's bringing [A] me down.
_ _ _ _ _ When the rain starts coming down, oh yeah.
_ _ [D] A little rain, it's bringing [A] me down.
_ _ _ [F#m] The check is up, you're down.
_ [C#m] My check you bought a [E] surprise.
And [Em] the last clock switch, [F#] you never [E] saw [D] it coming. _
_ _ _ [E] We're [F#m] going to rush to take your time.
_ [C#m] You say, no, I'm [A] by your side.
_ _ [G] _ _ _
We'll hit the ground [D] running. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ I said, Pete, man, _ I'm running on empty.
I said, Pete, I'm running on empty.
I said, Pete, help me out.
I'm running on empty.
I said, Pete, man, I'm running on empty.
This is what Pete has to say to me.
