[Verse 1]
EYou say, "Hello", like a long lost friend
And play me like an old violBin
BIn a day or two, you're gone again
And I wonder why I keep Eplayin'
[Verse 2]
EI sit and watch the clouds each day
Wonderin' when they'll turn tBo gray
BAnd you come and you go, like a storm across the coast
And expect me to be thankful Efor the rain
[Verse 3]
EWell, I guess I should be thankful for
EAll the nights of straight downpours
I'm soakin' up every drop BI get
B'Cause who knows how long I'll have to wait
B'Til you come blowin' back my way
I'm learnin' to be thankful Efor the rain
[Verse 4]
EI know when the mornin' comes
The truth will rise up like the sBun
B'Cause I'm cleanin' up the damage done
That's everything I Eprayed for

[Intro]

[Verse 1]

You say, "Hello", like a long lost friend

And play me like an old violin

In a day or two, you're gone again

And I wonder why I keep playin'

[Verse 2]

I sit and watch the clouds each day

Wonderin' when they'll turn to gray

And you come and you go, like a storm across the coast

And expect me to be thankful for the rain

[Verse 3]

Well, I guess I should be thankful for

All the nights of straight downpours

I'm soakin' up every drop I get

'Cause who knows how long I'll have to wait

'Til you come blowin' back my way

I'm learnin' to be thankful for the rain

[Verse 4]

I know when the mornin' comes

The truth will rise up like the sun

'Cause I'm cleanin' up the damage done

That's everything I prayed for

[Instrumental]

E B

[Outro]

You come and you go, like a storm across the coast

And expect me to be thankful for the rain
