[C]Say, [F]can you see them [C]there
Those [F]darkened clouds in the [C]distance

We [G7]ought to go my [C]dear
What [F]are you saying [C]pray
There's [F]only bright skies [C]about us
[F]Just look [G]away
Just [G7]turn the other [Cm]way
A [Fm]drop of rain I [Cm]swear
I [Fm]felt upon my [Cm]forehead

I [G7]cannot wipe my [Cm]brow
Twas [Fm]not a drop of [Cm]rain
And [Fm]now your hands, I am [Cm]holding

For[G7]ever and a [C]year
For[F]ever and a [C]year (x3)
