When It Rains
View chords used in this chart
Am C G Em
Give me skies of black and blue, the way you make me feel
Am C G Em
Give me skies of green and red, cold winds that make it real
Am C G Em
Storms are brewing deep within of hurt and loss and pride
Am C G Em
Its good to see the world in pain when I take a walk outside
Chorus
Dm F7 C G
When it rains, I don't mind being loney I cry right along with the sky
Dm F7 C G
When it rains, I don't pretend to be happy, I don't even have to try
Dm F7
When it rains, some people get down,
C G
They're sporting a frown, so I fit right in
Am C G Em
Yeah, the sun might brighten your day but if I had my way, I'd take the rain
I don't care about politics or the hypocrites on my TV
I'm not mad at the girl who left because she couldn't be with me
So make up your theories about the scandals and the lies
Start out depressed then everything comes as a pleasant suprise
Chorus x2
