G C G
I hear the drizzle of the rain
Am Em C Bm7
Like a memory it falls
G Bm G C
Soft and warm continuing
Am Em D G C G
Tapping on my roof and walls
G C G
And from the shelter of my mind
Am Em C Bm7
Through the window of my eyes
G Bm G C
I gaze beyond the rain drenched streets
Am Em D G C G
To England where my heart lies
G C G
My mind's distracted and diffused
Am Em C Bm7
My thoughts are many miles away
G Bm G C
They lie with you when you're asleep
Am Em D G C G
And kiss you when you start your day
G C G
And a song I was writing is left undone
Am Em C Bm7
I don't know why I spent the time
G Bm G C
Writing song I can't believe
Am Em D G C G
With words that tear and strain to rhyme
G C G
And so you see I have come to doubt
Am Em C Bm7
All that I once held as true
G Bm G C
I stand alone without beliefs
Am Em D G C G
The only truth I know is you
G C G
And as I watch the drops of rain
Am Em C Bm7
weave their weary paths and die
G Bm G C
I know that I am like the rain
Am Em D G C G
There but for the grace of you go I
