[Verse]

     D                Am
The rain is falling through the mist
    C      G       D
Of sorrow that surrounded me
    (D)              Am
The sun could never thaw away
      C         G      D
The bliss that lays around me

[Chorus]

        D    Am         D   Am
Let it rain,    let it rain
          C         G      D
Let your love rain down on me
        D    Am         D   Am
Let it rain,    let it rain
        C     G   [1,3: D   2,4: A; to intro]
Let it rain, rain, rain

[Verse 2]
(same as verse 1)

Her life was like a desert flower
Burning in the sun
Until I found the way to love
Was harder said than done

[Chorus]

        D    Am         D   Am
Let it rain,    let it rain
          C         G      D
Let your love rain down on me
        D    Am         D   Am
Let it rain,    let it rain
        C     G   [1,3: D   2,4: A; to intro]
Let it rain, rain, rain

[repeat intro; drums enter 2nd time]

[Solo]

F#m       F+     F#m7/E   F#m7/D#
Em7      A13      [3X]            Em7: 022030  A13: x02022

[Verse 3]
(same as verse 1)

Now I know the secret
There is nothing that I lack
When I give my heart to you
You'll surely give it back

[Chorus]

        D    Am         D   Am
Let it rain,    let it rain
          C         G      D
Let your love rain down on me
        D    Am         D   Am
Let it rain,    let it rain
        C     G   [1,3: D   2,4: A; to intro]
Let it rain, rain, rain

D    Am         D   Am
Let it rain,    let it rain
          C         G      D
Let your love rain down on me
        D    Am         D   Am
Let it rain,    let it rain

Let it rain, rain, rain
