Artist: Fairport Convention
[INTRO]
[C]
[VERSE 1]
Rain comes from the east one night, we [Gm7]watch it come
To [C]hang like beaded curtains till the [Gm7]morning sun [Ab]
Water dripping from our clothes [F]
You, with raindrops on your nose [Eb]
Ask me sadly, "Please don't go a[C]way, love" [Eb]
"Till the rain is done," I say, "I'll [C]stay now"
[VERSE 2]
Rain outside, but inside we don't [Gm7]mind at all
[C]Shadows by the fire, slowly [Gm7]climb and fall [Ab]
Kisses fade and leave no trace [F]
Whispers vanish into space [Eb]
None will send me on a chase to [C]nowhere [Eb]
What matters if I were the first to [C]go there?
[INSTRUMENTAL]
[F] [Eb] [C] [Eb] [C]
[VERSE 2]
Morning comes up from the east, we [Gm7]watch it come
And [C]far away now rolls the angry [Gm7]rain god's drum [Ab]
You, with daybreak in your eyes [F]
Afraid to speak, for telling lies [Eb]
I watch you search for some reply to [C]lend me [Eb]
But when the rain is done, we'll stop pre[C]tending
