[Intro]
F Bb La, la-la-la, la-la F Eb La-la-la, la-la-la
[Verse 1]
F Bb The Kirin used to speak and sing F Eb We weren't always quiet F Bb We told stories and funny jokes F Eb My stand-up was a riot Bb F/C But then one day, a fight broke out C F And hurtful words were said Bb F/C Flaring tempers were inflamed G C Destruction quickly spread Bb C And flaming red from head to head F Even burnt our... bread Bb F Eb Sorry, I forgot how much I love rhyming. Where was I? Oh, right!
[Verse 2]
F Bb My happy village lay in ruins F Eb Relationships got worse F Bb Spoiler alert: we quickly learned F Eb That words could be a curse Bb F/C "No more talking," yelled our leader C F The last thing said aloud Ddim Into the Stream of Silence F We stepped as a crowd Bb The water cooled emotions G7 And peace was soon restored Bb C But with no way to speak my thoughts F I got super... bored Bb F Eb Seriously, there's only so long that Sudoku can keep you entertained!
[Chorus]
G Bb 'Cause rainbows won't light up the sky
Unless you let it rain
Dm C And shiny apples sometimes come with worms G No, you can't give up your laughter Bb 'Cause you're scared of a little pain Eb C F It's a lesson that the Kirin never learned
[Instrumental]
Bb F Eb
[Verse 3]
F Bb I was stuck in silent prison F Eb With the voices in my head F Bb 'Til I tripped over my salvation G7 C In a helpful flowerbed Bb F/C I found a cure to clear my pipes C F And I became quite chatty Bb F/C With years and years of stored-up words G7 C I drove my village batty Dm They didn't like my jokes and songs A And daily dose of news F The plays I wrote, the speeches spoke G7 Variety reviews Dm A Or the story about the Kirin who hid below an opera stage C And fell
N.C.
in love with this opera singer, and he wore a freaky half-mask thing, and he played the organ a lot
and got all broody 'cause the singer was in love with another dude, so he took her away on this underground
gondola.
C7
I mean, who doesn't love musical theater?![Verse 4]
F Bb The village leader made it clear F Eb I had to make my choice F Bb I could stay and live with them F Eb Or I could keep my voice Bb F/C C So I came here, but left the couch alone F They're hard to move Bb F/C With just the view for company Ddim G7 Until ya heard me groove
N.C.
Take it away, boys!
[Interlude]
G7
[Chorus]
G Bb 'Cause rainbows won't light up the sky
Unless you let it rain
Dm C And candles just won't glow until they're burned G No, you can't give up your laughter Bb 'Cause you're scared of a little pain Eb C Dm C F It's a lesson that my village never learned Gm No matter how hard I schooled them Bb Fear of hurt is still what ruled them C F Eb Dm Sometimes you gotta let it raaaaaaaain!
[Outro]
C F Yeah, sometimes you gotta let it rain
