[INTRO]

Fm13    Dm7b5       F9
I walk around heavy-hearted and sad
C                          C13
Night comes around and I'm still feeling bad
D9                           D13
Rain pourin' down   Blinding every hope I had
     G                   Eb7                   Gdim7     G7  G+
This pitter 'n patter 'n beatin' 'n spatterin' drives me mad
C           D
Love, love, love, love
     G11                       G7   Gaug
This misery will be the end of me

[VERSE 1]

Gaug       Cmaj7  Gdim           Dm7           G7
Don't know why        there's no sun up in the sky
Gaug   Cmaj7    Am7  Dm7              Fdim
Stormy weather       since my gal and I ain't
  Cmaj7    Am7 Fmaj7         Gaug     Cmaj7  Am7    Dm7 G7
together       Keeps rainin' all the  time      the time

[VERSE 2]

Gaug    Cmaj7  Gdim          Dm7         G7
Life is bare,      gloom and misery everywhere
Gaug   Cmaj7    Am7  Dm7               Fdim        Cmaj7  Am7
Stormy weather       just can't get my poor self together
Dm7       Fdim     Cmaj7  Am7 Fmaj7    Gaug    Cmaj7 Fdim Cmaj7 C7
I'm weary all the  time,      so weary all the time

[CHORUS]

F              Fm      C                   C7
When she went away the blues walked in and met me
F             Fm      C                  C7
If she stays away old rockin' chair will get me
F           Fm       C               F   C
All I do is pray the Lord above will let me
Am7         D7       G7
walk in the sun once more

[VERSE 3]

Gaug     Cmaj7 Gdim       Dm7            G7
Can't go on,        every thing I had is gone
Gaug   Cmaj7   Am7  Dm7              Fdim
Stormy weather      since my gal and I ain't
  Cmaj7    Am7 Fmaj7         Gaug     Cmaj7  Am7
together       Keeps rainin' all the  time
Fmaj7         Gaug     C
Keeps rainin' all the  time
