Intro:
| Dadd11 | % | % | % |
| G C | G C | G C | G C |


Verse:
G           C              G
 I hear the drizzle of the rain
Am      Am7 C     Bm
 Like a memory it falls
G         Bm      G   C
 Soft and warm continuing
Am       Am7   D      | G C | G C | G C | G C |
 Tapping on my roof and walls


Verse:
G             C           | G C | G |
 And from the shelter of my mind
Am           Am7    C     Bm
 Through the window of my eyes
  G      Bm       G             C
I gaze beyond the rain drenched streets
Am         D       | G C | G C | G C | G C |
 To England where my heart lies


Interlude:
| Dadd11 | % | % | Dadd11  C   |
| G C | G C | G C | G C |


Verse:
G             C              G
 My mind's distracted and diffused
Am               Am7  C      Bm
 My thoughts are many miles away
     G        Bm       G       C
They lie with you when you're asleep
    Am       Am7         D            | G C | G C | G C | G C |
And kiss you when you-ou-ou start your day


Verse:
      G          C               G
And a song I was writing is left undone
Am            Am7   C        Bm
 I don't know why I spent my time
G        Bm      G       C
 Writing songs I can't believe
     Am         Am7      D          | G C | G C | G C | G C |
With words that tear a-a-nd strain to rhyme


Interlude:
| Dadd11 | % | % | Dadd11 C |
| G C | G C | G C | G C |


Verse:
G           C                  G
 And so you see I have come to doubt
Am        Am7    C       Bm
 All that I once held as true
G         Bm       G     C
 I stand alone without beliefs
    Am   Am7     D      | G C | G C | G C | G C |
The only truth I know is you


Verse:
G         C                  G
 And as I watch the drops of rain
Am           Am7   C         Bm
 Weave their weary paths and die
G            Bm    G        C
 I know that I am  like the rain
Am          Am7             D    | G C | G C | G C | G C |
 There but for the grace of you go I


Instrumental verse: (+ coda)
| G | Gadd9 | G | % | % |
| Am | Am7 | C | Bm | % |
| G | Bm | G | C | % |
| Am | Am7 | D/A | G
