CAPO ON THE 3RD
G
Sunshine, blue skies, please go away.
My girl has found another and gone away.
C
With her went my future, my life is filled with gloom.
G
So day after day, I stayed locked up in my room.
D C
I know to you it might sound strange.
G
But I wish it would rain. (How I wish that it would rain)
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
G
'Cause so badly I wanna go outside. (Such a lovely day)
But everyone knows that a man ain't suppose to cry, listen.
C G
I gotta cry 'cause cryin' eases the pain, oh yeah.
D C
People this hurt I feel inside, words can never explain.
G
I just wish it would rain. (Oh, how I wish that it would rain)
G
Day in, day out, my tear stained face
Pressed against the window pane.
My eyes search the skies, desperately for rain.
C
'Cause raindrops will hide my teardrops.
And no one will ever know.
G
That I'm cryin'... cryin' when I go outside.
D C
To the world outside my tears, I refuse to explain.
G C G
Oh, I wish it would rain. (Oh, how I wish that it would rain)
Ooo, baby.
