G          C              G
I hear the drizzle of the rain
Am     Em  C     D7
Like a memory it falls
G        Bm   G      C
Soft and warm continuing
Am      Em    D        G    C G
Tapping on my roof and walls
 

G            C             G
And from the shelter of my mind
Am          Em     C     D7
Through the window of my eyes
G         Bm      G             C
I gaze beyond the rain drenched streets
Am         D        G     C G
To England where my heart lies
 

G            C              G
My mind's distracted and diffused
Am  Em               C      D7
My thoughts are many miles away
G             Bm       G       C
They lie with you when you're asleep
Am           Em       D          G  C G
And kiss you when you start your day
 

G                C                 G
And a song I was writing is left undone
Am           Em    C         D7
I don't know why I spend my time
G       Bm      G       C
Writing songs I can't believe
Am              Em       D         G    C G
With words that tear and strain to rhyme
 

G          C                  G
And so you see I have come to doubt
Am       Em     C       D7
All that I once held as true
G        Bm       G     C
I stand alone without beliefs
Am       Em      D       G  C G
The only truth I know is you
 

G        C                  G
And as I watch the drops of rain
Am          Em    C         D7
weave their weary paths and die
G           Bm   G        C
I know that I am like the rain
Am                Em       D      G  C G
There but for the grace of you go I
