GCG
I hear the drizzle of the rain
AmEmCBm7
Like a memory it falls
GBmGC
Soft and warm continuing
AmEmDGCGCG
Tapping on my roof and walls.
GCG
And from the shelter of my mind
AmEmCBm7
Through the window of my eyes
GBmGC
I gaze beyond the rain-drenched streets
AmEmDGCGCG
To England where my heart lies.
GCG
My mind's distracted and diffused
AmEmCBm7
My thoughts are many miles away
GBmGC
They lie with you when you're asleep
AmEmDGCGCG
And kiss you when you start your day.
GCG
And a song I was writing is left undone
AmEmCBm7
I don't know why I spend my time
GBmGC
Writing songs I can't believe
AmEmDGCGCG
With words that tear and strain to rhyme.
GCG
And so you see I have come to doubt
AmEmCBm7
All that I once held as true
GBmGC
I stand alone without beliefs
AmEmDGCGCG
The only truth I know is you.
GCG
And as I watch the drops of rain
AmEmCBm7
Weave their weary paths and die
GBmGC
I know that I am like the rain
AmEmDGCGCG
There but for the grace of you go I.
