I Wish it Would Rain

Temptations

three chords here – c and e  below

[Verse 1]
 A
Sunshine, blue skies, please go away.
 
My girl has found another and gone away.
 D
With her went my future, my life is filled with gloom.
  A
So day after day, I stayed locked up in my room.
                E                        D
I know to you it might sound strange.
                     A
But I wish it would rain. (How I wish that it would rain)
 
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
 
[Verse 2]
 A
'Cause so badly I wanna go outside. (Such a lovely day)
 
But everyone knows that a man ain't suppose to cry, listen.
 D                                                   A
I gotta cry 'cause cryin' eases the pain, oh yeah.
                      E                                D
People this hurt I feel inside, words can never explain.
                                   A
I just wish it would rain. (Oh, how I wish that it would rain)
 
[Verse 3]
A
Day in, day out, my tear stained face
 
Pressed against the window pane.
 
My eyes search the skies, desperately for rain.
                D
'Cause raindrops will hide my teardrops.
 
And no one will ever know.
                 A
That I'm cryin'... cryin' when I go outside.
               E                                     D
To the world outside my tears, I refuse to explain.
                                    A                         D    A
Oh, I wish it would rain. (Oh, how I wish that it would rain)
 
Ooo, baby.
