VERSE 1: [Am]The rain came down
[F]The rain came down
[Am]The rain came down [G]on [F]me
[Am]the wind blew strong
[F]and summer's song
[Am]it fades to [G]mem[F]ory
[Am]I knew you when
[F]I loved you then
[Am]in summer's [G]yawn, now [F]hopeless
[Am]you laid me bare
[F]and marked me there
[Am]the promises [G]we [F]made
CHORUS: [C]I used to [Am]think, as birds take [Em]wing,
they sing through [F]life, so why can't we?[C]
we cling to [Am]this, and cliam the [Em]best
if this is [F]what you're offering[C]
I'll take the [Am]rain, I'll take the [Em]rain, [F]
VERSE 2: [Am]The nighttime creases
[F]summer schemes
[Am]and streches [G]out to [F]stay
[Am]the sun shine downs
[F]you came around
[Am]you loved the [G]easy [F]days
[Am]But now the sun
[F]the winters come
[Am]I wanted [G]just to [F]say
[Am]that if I hold
[F]I'd hope you'd fold
[Am]and open up [G]inside, [F]inside of me
CHORUS: [C]I used to [Am]think, as birds take [Em]wing,
they sing through [F]life, so why can't we?[C]
we cling to [Am]this, and cliam the [Em]best
if this is [F]what you're offering[C]
I'll take the [Am]rain, I'll take the [Em]rain, [F]I'll take the [C]rain[Am][Em][F]

VERSE 3: [Am][F]
[Am]This winter's song
[F]I'll sing along
[Am]I've searched its [G]still [F]refrain.
[Am]I'll walk alone
[F]if given this
[Am]take wing, and [F]celebrate the rain
CHORUS: [C]I used to [Am]think, as birds take [Em]wing,
they sing through [F]life, so why can't we?[C]
we cling to [Am]this, and cliam the [Em]best
if this is [F]what you're offering[C]
I'll take the [Am]rain, I'll take the [Em]rain, [F]I'll take the [C]rain[Am][Em][F]
