Listen to the rhythm of the falling rain,
G#                               D#
telling me just what a fool I've been.
  G#                               C#

The only girl I care about has gone away..

lookin' for a brand new start.
    G#                                 C#
But little does she know that when she left that day..
G#                 A#m7 D# G#
along with her she took my heart.

Rain please tell me now does that seem fair..
    C#                              G#
for her to steal my heart away when she don't care?

I can't love another when my heart's somewhere far away.
