Intro:

G

Verse:
G
 Someone told me long ago
G                                     D
 There's a calm before the storm, I know
                                 G
And it's been coming for some time

Verse:

G
 When it's over, so they say
G                            D
 It'll rain a sunny day, I know
                      G
Shining down like water

Chorus:

C          D
I wanna know

Have you
G      D       Em
ever seen the rain
C        D
I wanna know

Have you
G     D        Em
ever seen the rain
C                D     G
Coming down on a sunny day

Bridge:
G

Verse:

G
 Yesterday and days before
G                                D
Sun is cold and rain is hard, I know
                         G
Been that way for all my time

Verse:

G
 'Til forever on it goes
G                                 D
 Thru the circle fast and slow, I know
                      G
And it can't stop, I wonder

Chorus:

C         D
 I wanna know

Have you
G      D      Em
ever seen the rain
C         D
 I wanna know

Have you
G      D      Em
ever seen the rain
C       D          G
 Coming down on a sunny day

TO “CLEOPATRA”

Verse:
G
I was Cleopatra, I was young and an actress
                                                D
When you knelt by my mattress, and asked for my hand
          G
But I was sad you asked it, as I laid in a black dress
                                     D
With my father in a casket, I had no plans
G
Yeah

Bridge:
G

Verse:
G
And I left the footprints, the mud stained on the carpet
                                                D
And it hardened like my heart did when you left town
      G
But I must admit it, that I would marry you in an instant
                                                      D
Damn your wife, I'd be your mistress just to have you around
 
Chorus:
           G*
But I was late for this, late for that, late for the love of my life
           G   D      C      G                 C   G          D
And when I die alone, when I die alone, when I die I'll be on time
D    G
Time

Bridge:
G

Verse:
G 
While the church discouraged, any lust that burned within me
                                             D
Yes my flesh, it was my currency, but I held true
      G
So I drive a taxi, and the traffic distracts me
                                                     D
From the strangers in my backseat, they remind me of you

Chorus: 
          G         D    C        G     C            G          D
But I was late for this, late for that, late for the love of my life
           G   D      C          G             C        G      D
And when I die alone, when I die alone, when I die I'll be on time
 
Pre-Chorus:

        Em                 G           C         D Em
And the only gifts from my Lord were a birth and a divorce
         C                                Em           C     D  G
But I've read this script and the costume fits, so I'll play my part

Bridge:
G

Verse:
G
I was Cleopatra, I was taller than the rafters
                                               D
But that's all in the past love, gone with the wind
G
Now a nurse in white shoes leads me back to my guestroom
       G*
It's a bed and it's a bathroom
      D*
And a place for the end

Chorus:
            G        D      C       G     C            G          D
So won’t be late for this, late for that, late for the love of my life
           G    D     C           G            C        G     D
And when I die alone, when I die alone, when I die I'll be on time
