A             F#m
 Early in the morning

    D                  E              A      E  D 
the sun was up and the sky was a-very blue

A          F#m
 Without a warning

   D                  E                    A   F#m E
As I looked up and my thoughts returned to you

   A                         Aaug
A noise in the city made the children run

    D               Dm6  
And hide themselves away

    A                  C#m                  D    E  | D |  
And thunder boomed and lightning filled the sky
[Verse]
A                 F#m
Looking from this window

    D               E               A     E  D  
A thousand ripples running past my door

A              F#m
Standing on an island

D                E            A       F#m E
Looking for someone upon the sho-ore

A           Aaug
I can see it very clearly

D                Dm6  
Nothing's really changed

     A                  C#m             D   E   | D7 | 
Then lightning strikes across an empty sky
[Chorus]
A                  D
OOoo, rain is falling

A                  D
Oooo, rain is falling

A         C#7/G#  F#m
Oooo, the rain is falling

        D7                      | A  Aaug | A  Aaug | 
Will it wash away those lonely tears?
[Verse]
           A                   F#m
With their brand new time transporter

        D             E              A   E   D  
They'll think maybe I fought to get away

         A                 F#m
But with all their great inventions

    D                E                   A      F#m E
And all their good intentions, here I'll stay

A                              C#
  Down on the corner where the sun had shone

     D              Dm6
The people gathered round

     A                C#m               D  E    | D7 | 
Then scattered as the raindrops hit the ground
[Chorus]
A             D
OOoo, rain is falling

A             D
Oooo, rain is falling

A         C#7/G#  F#m
Oooo, the rain is falling

        D7                     | A  Aaug/G | A/F#  Aaug/F | 
Will it wash away those lonely tears?
[Chorus]
A             D
OOoo, rain is falling

A             D
Oooo, rain is falling

A         C#7/G#        F#m
Oooo, the rain keeps on falling

        D7                      | A  Aaug | A  Aaug | 
Will it wash away those lonely tears?
[Coda] | A Aaug/G | A/F# Aaug/F | A the end :-)
