Electric Light Orchestra - Rain Is Falling

                A              F#m
Early in the morning
       D                   E            A  E
The sun was up and the sky was very blue

Without a warning
As I looked out, my thoughts returned to you.

         A                           C#
      A noise in the city made the children (run)
         D                B
      And hide themselves away
            A                 C#m                   Bm  E
      And thunder boomed and lightning filled the sky.

Looking from this window
A thousand rivers running past my door
Standing on an island
Looking for someone upon the shore

    I can see it very clearly,
    Nothing?s really changed
    Then lightning strikes across an empty sky.

CHORUS:
     A                  Dm
Ooohh, the rain is falling
     A                  Dm
Ooohh, the rain is falling
     A          G#      C#m
Ooohh, the rain is falling
             Bm        Dm           A
Will it wash away those lonely tears?
                                     [Dm A Dm]

(It?s raining, it?s pouring, the old man is snoring)

With their brand new time transporter
They?ll think maybe I fought to get away
But with all their great inventions

         And all their good intentions, here I stay
    Down on the corner where the sun had shone
      The people gathered round
    Then scattered as the raindrops hit the ground.

Chorus.

(It?s raining, it?s pouring, the old man is snoring)

Chorus.

(It?s raining, it?s pouring, the old man is snoring)
(Rain rain, go away, come again another day)
