[Am] [A]
[F#m] Early in the [D] morning, the sun was [E] up and the sky was [A] a fairy blue.
[E]
[A] [F#m] Without a warning, [D] as I looked [E] out my door, it's [A] returned to you.
[F#m]
[A] The noise in the [C#] city made the children [D] hide themselves away.
[A] And thunder [C#m] boomed and lightning [D] filled the sky.
[E]
[A] Looking [F#m] around this window, [D] a thousand [E] rippers running [A] past my door.
[F#m] Standing out of air, [D] looking [E] for someone to [A] call my shore.
I can [C#] see it very [D] clearly, [Dm] nothing's been changed.
[A] Then lightning [C#m] strikes across an [D] empty [E] sky.
[A] The [D] rain is falling, [A] oh, the [D] rain is falling, [A] oh, the [F#m] rain is falling.
[D] Will it wash away those lonely [A] tears?
[B] [A] [Dm]
[A] With their brand new time [F#m] transporter, [D] they'll think maybe [E] I've forgotten to get [A] away.
[E]
[A] But with all their [F#m] great inventions [D] and all their good [E] intentions, here [A] I stand.
[F#m]
[A] Down on the corner [C#] where the sun had [D] shone, the people gathered [Dm] round.
[A] They're scattered as [C#m] the raindrops [D] hit the ground.
[E] [D]
[A] Oh, the [D] rain is falling, [A] oh, the rain [D] is falling.
It's [A] afternoon, the rain [F#m] is falling.
[D] Will it wash away those lonely [A] tears?
[F#m] [Dm]
[A] Oh, the rain [D] is falling.
I [A] said, oh, the rain [D] is falling.
[A] The rain keeps [F#m] on falling.
Will [D] it wash away those lonely [A] tears?
[B] [A] [Dm]
