      Em   Gx2
GIt was rainin' hard in DHouston when EmI ran into herC  
I searched for conGversation but AmI was lost for wDords
Then a Ccloud of tear-filled Dmemories came Gcrashing down on Emme
If it haAmdn't been for thBme pouring rain CI'm sure she would have Dseen
CTears in Dthe rain, hiGdin' the Empain
Maybe shAme'd come back if Cshe could see Dme cry
CShe thinks I'm sDo strong, oh Gbut she's Eso wrong
She just Amcouldn't see these tDears in the rain
[Instrumental]
Em      G
GNow I regret that momenDt 'cause I diEmdn't let her knowC  
How much I still lGoved her I was Amhopin' it would Dshow
But the Craindrops and the teDardrops ran toGgether on my faceEm  
Now she'Amll never, ever kBmnow no Cone could take Dher place
CTears in Dthe rain, hiGdin' the Empain
Maybe shAme'd come back if Cshe could see Dme cry
CShe thinks I'm sDo strong, oh Gbut she's Eso wrong
She just Amcouldn't see these tDears in the Grain
GShe thinks I'm Cso Dstrong, oh but she's Gso Ewrong
She just Amcouldn't see these tDears in the rain
