[Am]
[Em]
[Bm] [B] [C] [D] [Em] [D] Now, yeah, [Em] most the days get away from me
[Am] [Em] Without so much as one word of goodbye
[Am]
Get back the sunshine [Em] in your big old suitcase
[Am] Now only the rain fills [C] the [C#] sky
You [D] were mine, [F] yeah
[F#] [E] Suddenly it's changed
[C#] Wish [D] that I
[F] [E] Could find a way to stop [D] the [Em] rain
Stop [Am] the rain
Wish that I could stop [Em] the rain
Stop the rain
[Am]
[Em] I see, I thought that everything was going fine
[Am] But [Em] I was blind, [G] blind as [Am] a man can be
[C] I took for granted what you're [Em] trying hard to [Am] give
[C] Now the rain is [Bm] all that [C] I can [C#] see
[D] You were mine, yeah
[F] [D] But that was just the [C#] day
[D] Wish that I
[F] [D] Could find a way to stop the [Em] rain
Stop [Am] the [Em] rain
Wish that [B] I could stop the [Em] rain
Falling [Am] from my [Em]
[Am] eyes Now, [A#] now

now
Tell me [Em] please, do you understand
[C] [Am] What this feeling is all [Em] about, [F#] yeah
[Em] When [Am] you lift me, [Em] you throw away [Am] my heart
[C] [D]
[Am] Sweet sunshine now
[C#] But [D] if I
[F]
[F#] Just thought of you [C#] [D] Sunshine
[F]
[D] Then I could find a way to stop [E] the rain
Stop the [B] rain
[Am] [Gm] Oh, I [Am] just love the [G] rain [A] falling now
[Gm] Sometimes [D] [G] what's good turns [C] to bad
Others seem so happy, seems so sad
When I'm comfy, then
[Am] Stop the rain
[Em] [C] Cause I know I was wrong all along, yeah
Guess I'll just sit here and feel sorry for myself
[Am] Stop the rain
Just pull my heart off of the shelf
And watch the cold [C] pieces
Woo, [D] [Am] yeah
No sunshine is gone
[G] [C] Ain't no sunshine is gone
When you come to me Oh, yeah
I'm still feeling this misery [G] forever
[Am] [G] Now there's a way to say goodbye, baby
I'm a-coming [C] right back to you [G] Maybe [C] sunshine Maybe sunshine
If you care for me
Or just knew what this was
I will be there
Thank you for watching !
