Verse:

	     D                     Am
	The rain has followed me through the mist
	    C      G       D
	Of sorrow that surrounded me
	    (D)              Am
	The sun could never thaw away
	      C         G      D
	The bliss that lays around me

Chorus:

	        D    Am         D   Am
	Let it rain,    let it rain
	          C         G      D
	Let your love rain down on me
	        D    Am         D   Am
	Let it rain,    let it rain
	        C     G   [1,3: D   2,4: A; to intro]
