[Verse 1]

A            F#m         D                  E            A    E  D
Early in the morning the sun was up and the sky was very blue
A         F#m        D               E                    A    F#m  E
Without a warning as I looked out my thoughts returned to you
  A                          C#aug            D               Dm
A noise in the city made the children run and hide themselves away
    A                  C#m                  D   E   D
And thunder boomed and lightning filled the sky


[Verse 2]

A                 F#m      D               E               A    E  D
Looking from this window a thousand rivers running past my door
A              F#m    D               E            A    F#m  E
Standing on an island looking for someone upon the shore
A           C#aug        D                   Dm
I can see it very clearly nothing's really changed
     A                  C#m            D   E  D7
Then lightning strikes across an empty sky


[Chorus]

Aadd9           Dadd9
Ooh the rain is falling
Aadd9           Dadd9
Ooh the rain is falling
Aadd9   C#/Ab    F#m
Ooh the rain is falling
        D7                       Aadd9  Dm6  Aadd9  Dm6
Will it wash away those lonely tears ?


[Verse 3]

A                              F#m            D                  E          A   E  D
With their brand new time transporter they'll think maybe I fought to get away
A                          F#m          D                E                 A   F#m  E
But with all their great inventions and all their good intentions here I stay
A                            C#aug             D                   Dm
Down on the corner where the sun had shone the people gathered round
     A                  C#m             D    E  D7
Then scattered as the raindrops hit the ground


[Chorus]

Aadd9           Dadd9
Ooh the rain is falling
Aadd9           Dadd9
Ooh the rain is falling
       Aadd9   C#/Ab    F#m
I said ooh the rain is falling
        D7                       A  Gsus2  F#m  F6
Will it wash away those lonely tears ?
Aadd9           Dadd9
Ooh the rain is falling
       Aadd9           Dadd9
I said ooh the rain is falling
Aadd9   C#/Ab          F#m
Ooh the rain keeps on falling
        D7                       Aadd9  Dm6  Aadd9  Dm6
Will it wash away those lonely tears ?
