[Verse]
Bm She cried to the southern wind F#m 'bout a love that was sure to end. Em Every dream her heart was gone, Bm heading for a showdown.

Bm Bad dreamer what's your name? F#m It's like we're riding on the same train Em Looks as though there'll be more pain, Bm there's gonna be a showdown.
[Chorus]
F#m Em And it's a raining all over the world, F#m Fm Em it's raining all over the world,
(523200)
F#7 F#7+9 Bm tonight the longest night.
