But I only passed by as a friend, Yeah
G#                             D#/G
All this time I stayed out of sight

Ooh, yes, I wish it would rain on me

Though your hurt is gone, mine's hanging on,

And I know, it's eating me through every night
and day
          C#              G#
I'm just waiting on your sign
G#                  D#/G
Cause I know, I know I never meant to
cause you no pain
      Fm                         D#/G
And I realize I let you down, Oh!

I know I'm never gonna hold you again

Now I... well, now I know I wish it would rain down.

Oh, you know I wish it would rain...
rain down on me now
Ooh, yes, I wish it would rain down... down on me
Yes, you know I wish it would rain down...
rain down over me

Just rain down over me
Just let it rain down, let it rain down
Let it rain down, oh, yeah
Let it rain down, rain down over me
Just let it rain down, just let it rain down
Let it rain down
Just let it rain
