G                G7             C
Old man walking by the sea is dreaming

  Am             D                G    D
Dreaming of the days when he was young

 G               G7           C
Hand in hand, a little boy beside him

 Am                D                  G  C G
Hearing about the weekends under the sun

 Bm         E        Bm
Ah, most of all I remember

          C      D         G
A little song we used to play

         E7               Am
It was about the English weather

        F                  E 
Always raining on a sunny day and it went

D       E       A              A7            D
Ah la, la, la, summer rain is pouring down again

                  Dm
And it's getting wetter

      A                 F#7     
As a matter of fact it couldn't be better

     Bm           E7             A  A7
For baby and me, sitting on my knees

D      E      A              A7
Ah la la la, summer rain is falling down

    D            Dm
On my umbrella above me

     A                   F#7
The very first time she said she loved me

            Bm                   A7   E    A D
Was in the summer rain and it's fine with me

 G                  G7                 C
Walking with your great grandfather's daughter

 Am             D                G  D
Somehow we were always late for tea

      G                G7              C
And small boys making mischief in the water

 Am                    D                   G  C G
Watching deck chairs floating away out to sea

 Bm      Em               Bm
Ah, but now the memory's fading

         C          D     G
How the past just slips away

           E7                  Am
But every time that it starts raining

       F                       E
I can hear the band begin to play

D       E       A              A7            D
Ah la, la, la, summer rain is pouring down again

                  Dm
And it's getting wetter

      A                 F#7     
As a matter of fact it couldn't be better

     Bm           E7             A  A7
For baby and me, sitting on my knees

D      E      A              A7
Ah la la la, summer rain is falling down

    D            Dm
On my umbrella above me

     A                   F#7
The very first time she said she loved me

            Bm                   A7   E    C#m F#7   F#
Was in the summer rain and it's fine with me,    la la la

 Bm             A7   E    A D A A7
Summer rain is fine with me

D       E       A              A7            D
Ah la, la, la, summer rain is pouring down again

                  Dm
And it's getting wetter

      A                 F#7     
As a matter of fact it couldn't be better

     Bm           E7             A  A7
For baby and me, sitting on my knees
