G D C
It was rainin' hard in Houston when I ran into her
G D
I searched for conversation but I was lost for words
C D G C
Then a cloud of tear-filled memories came crashing down on me
G C D
If it hadn't been for the pouring rain I'm sure she would have seen
 
G C D G C
Tears in the rain, hidin' the pain
G D
Maybe she'd come back if she could see me cry
G C D G Am
She thinks I'm so strong, oh but she's so wrong
C D G
She just couldn't see these tears in the rain
 
G D C
Now I regret that moment 'cause I didn't let her know
G D
How much I still loved her I was hopin' it would show
C D G C
But the raindrops and the teardrops ran together on my face
G C D
Now she'll never, ever know no one could take her place
 
G C D G C
Tears in the rain, hidin' the pain
G D
Maybe she'd come back if she could see me cry
G C D G Am
She thinks I'm so strong, oh but she's so wrong
C D G
She just couldn't see these tears in the rain
 
G C D G Am
She thinks I'm so strong, oh but she's so wrong
C D G
She just couldn't see these tears in the rain
