Cmaj
Sad memories the gathering rain brings 

Fmaj
I loved her but I'll never see her face again 

Cmaj
Clouds raise their heads in the morning 

Fmaj
the way I once walked on by her 

Cmaj
But now she's gone and I'll never raise my face again, 

Fmaj
Raise my face again

A                       
White horses dragged my lover from me 

             A#                                      A 
(the clouds) rushed in and drowned my sorrow with the rain,

             A# C D
with the rain

Cmaj
My friends try to lift me 

Fmaj
they understand how I'm feeling 

Cmaj
but the truth holds me down 

Fmaj
she came and went with the rain 

Cmaj                           Fmaj
I watched her walk into the rain

Cmaj                           Fmaj
I watched her walk into the rain

A
White horses dragged my lover from me 

             A#                                      A 
(The clouds) rushed in and drowned my sorrow with the rain,

             A# C D
with the rain 

Em
Now always the storms come

Cmaj
Raindrops run down my windows 

Em
All that's left is her picture 

Cmaj
but someday it to will 

Em
wash away... 

Cmaj
wash away... 

Em
I watched her walk away, 

Cmaj
in the rain
