[Intro]
Fmaj7 G Cmaj7
Sometimes i pray for the rain
[Verse 1]
Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Cmaj7
You know i try, to see things from your side
Fmaj7 Cmaj7
to leave things undefined
Fmaj7 G
But where would you advise?
F Cmaj7
That I generate a new design
F Cmaj7
For the missing piece I have to disguise.
F Cmaj7 G
Saw a header in the paper that your love is just some myth i devised.
Em F Cmaj7
And things like that you can never take back again. oh oh
Em F Cmaj7
Things like that you can never take back again oh
[Pre-Chorus]
Am Fig.1 Cmaj7
If there was a time that you loved me
Am Fig.1 Cmaj7
If there was a time when you said that you want me
G
to believe.
[Chorus]
Em F Cmaj7
But can't go back baby.
Em F Cmaj7
Can't go back baby.
Fmaj7 G Cmaj7
And sometimes i pray for the rain.
Fmaj7 Cmaj7
lalalala lala lam
Fmaj7 Cmaj7
lalalala lala lam
[Verse 2]
Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Cmaj7
You and your glass world that does ring
Fmaj7 Cmaj7
though at times a frozen thing
Fmaj7 G
It encloses you and its crystalline.
F Cmaj7
Look so lovely but you'll have to decide
F Cmaj7
If you could play it in reverse then you'd find.
F Cmaj7
That you'd better reconsider all the love you took in
G
and then cast aside
Em F Cmaj7
But, things like that you can never take back again. oh oh
Em F Cmaj7
Things like that you can never take back again.
[Pre-Chorus]
Am Fig.1 Cmaj7
If there was a time when you loved me
Am Fig.1 Cmaj7
If there was a time when you said that you want me
G
to believe.
[Chorus]
Em F Cmaj7
But can't go back baby.
Em F Cmaj7
Can't go back baby.
Fmaj7 G Cmaj7
And sometimes i pray for the rain.
Fmaj7 Cmaj7
lalalala lala lam
Fmaj7 Cmaj7
lalalala lala lam
[Bridge]
Am Cmaj7
Girl, I know I'm losing time without you.
Gm F
Never had a second chance before this time.
A D G
But things like that they never do work out right.
A D G
things like that well they never do work out right.
[Chorus]
Em F Cmaj7
Can't go back baby.
Em F Cmaj7
Can't go back baby.
Fmaj7 G Cmaj7
And sometimes i pray for the rain.
Fmaj7 Cmaj7
lalalala lala lam
Fmaj7 Cmaj7
