Verse 1:
Am
Bus stop, wet day, she's there, I say
Please share my umbrella
Bus stop, bus goes, she stays, love grows
Under my umbrella
All that summer we enjoyed it
Dm EmWind and rain and shine
AmThat umbrella, we employed it
By August, she was mine
C/G B7 Em /D C
Every morning I would see her waiting at the stop
Am/C B7 Em /D /C /BSometimes she'd shopped and she would show me what she bought
Other people stared as if we were both quite insane
Am/C B7 EmSomeday my name and hers are going to be the same
Verse 2:
That's the way the whole thing started
Silly but it's true
Thinkin' of a sweet romance
Beginning in a queue
Came the sun the ice was melting
No more sheltering now
Nice to think that that umbrella
Led me to a vow
