  Dm
What we didn't lose with the summer rain
 C
Comes back to haunt us in the autumn again
Gm                    A#
Open all doors and release the pain
          Dm
Into the summer rain

What we couldn't shake from when last we met
Fall from our hands like soft regret
Let's pick ourselves up to make another bet
And try again

Chorus:
 C            Gm                A#              F
Faces to the sun now, there is nothing left to hide
 C           Gm               A#              Dm
We can get together if we can see beyond our pride
     C                    A7                 A#
And come out through the doors on the other side
        Dm        C
In the summer rain

Now what we cannot solve we can set aside
Despite our differences we're intertwined
Time will heal and the hurt subside
In the summer rain

Chorus:
Eyes up to the sun now, there's so little left to
hide
We will get together, don't let circumstance decide
We'll come out through the doors on the other side
Into the summer rain

 C            Gm                A#              F
Faces to the sun now, there is nothing left to hide
 C            Gm            A#          Dm
We can get together if we swallow our pride
 C                  Gm                 A#
Put your best foot forward, don't let circumstance
   F
decide
 C            Gm         A#         Am
We will find ways to continue this ride
     C                    A7                 A#
And come out through the doors on the other side
        Dm        C
To the summer rain
         Dm        C
Oh, the summer rain
