    C                              G              
The rain it started tappin on the window near my bed
            F                         G
There was a loophole in my dreamin so I got out of it
       Am                                F 
And to my surprise my eyes were wide and already open
       Dm                                    G 
To my nightstand and my dresser where those nightmares had just been

     C                                 G
So I dressed myself and left then, out into the gray streets.
    F                                  G
But everything seemed different and completely new to me.
    Am                                   F
The sky, the trees, houses, buildings, even my own body.
         Dm                       G
And each person I encountered, I couldn't wait to meet.

  C                          G
I came upon a doctor who appeared in quite poor health.
                F                            G
I said there is nothing I can do for you you can't do for yourself.
           Am                                F
He said oh yes you can, just hold my hand, I think that would help.
     Dm                              G
So I sat with him a while and then I asked him how he felt.

           Csus4 C/B Am            
He said, I think I'm cured. 
       Csus4 C/B Am
No, in fact, I'm sure.
      Csus4 C/B  Am              G
Thank you   Stranger, for your therapeutic smile.

           C                             G
So that is how I learned the lesson that everyone is alone.
         F                                    G
And your eyes must do some raining if you are ever going to grow.
            Am                                                   F
But when crying don't help and you can't compose yourself, It is best to compose a poem.
   Dm                         F
An honest verse of longing or simple song of hope.

                C                              G
That is why I'm singing Baby don't worry cause now I got your back. 
          F                                    G
And every time you feel like crying, I'm gonna try and make you laugh. 
         Am                                            F
And if I can't, if it just hurts too bad, then we will wait for it to pass 
    Dm                                    F
and I will keep you company through those days so long and black.

               C                         G
And we'll keep working on the problem we know we'll never solve
           F                                G
Of Love's uneven remainders, our lives are fractions of a whole.
           Am                                       F
But if the world could remain within a frame like a painting on a wall.
       Dm                                          F 
Then I think we would see the beauty then we would stand staring in awe

       Csus4 C/B   Am
At our still lives posed 
       Csus4 C/B Am
like a bowl  of  oranges,
       Csus4 C/B Am          G 
like a sto  -ry  told by the fault lines and the soil.
