Honey I know I know I know times are changin'
F                                              Eb
   It's time we all reach out for somethin' new

That means you too

   You say you want a leader

and let me guide you to the purple rain

Purple rain, purple rain (Whew)

if you know what I'm singin' about
            Gm
help me and come on raise your hand
                     F
Purple rain, purple rain

I only want to see you, only want to see you
                  Bb (nc)
In the purple rain
