Intro chords: F Bb C F Bb C

VERSE:

F
Night falls on the city, finds me all alone.
          Bb                       C
Makes me wonder, should just go on home.
    F
And I walk on up the stairs to see if you still there,
          Bb                 C
would you mind if I found you alone?
        Bb  C          F
Then a cold wind came calling,
Bb              C        F
strange how it knew me by name.
         F
say the night will fade, but the pain’s gonna stay,
          Bb                      C
makes me wonder, have you ever made love to me?

CHORUS:

F                 Bb
I can't stop the rain,
C              F
here it comes again.
Bb
Lightning,
C                 F
strikes across the sky.
Bb                G
I can't stop the rain,
F             Bb
here it comes again.
C
Lightning,
              Bb  C F
only blinds my eyes.

VERSE:

F
Ain’t it sad when the only love I ever had,
     Bb                          C
Just slips away, right through my fingers.
F
Ain’t it a shame when I think of your name,
     Bb                   C
the only memory I have is of you

CHORUS:

F                 Bb
I can't stop the rain,
C              F
here it comes again.
Bb
Lightning,
C                   F
strikes across the sky.
Bb                G
I can't stop the rain,
F              Bb
here it comes again.
            C
It takes a witch,
('cause lightning)
                       Bb C F
to curse that God damn sky.
(only blinds my eyes…)

REPEAT AND FADE…
