Am6 Bm7/A Turned on the weather man just after the news I needed sweet rain to wash away my blues He looked at the chart but he look in vain Heavy cloud but no rain Back in time with Louis XVI At the court of the people he was number one He'd be the bluest blood they'd ever seen When the king said hi to the guillotine Cm6 The royal astrologer was run out of breath E7 He thought that maybe the rain would postpone his death Am6 Bm7/A He look in sky but he look in vain Am6 Heavy cloud but no rain Well the land was cracking and the river was dry All the crops were dying when they ought to be high So to save his farm from the banker's draft The farmer took out a book on some old witchcraft He made a spell and a potion on a midsummer's night He killed a brindled calf in the pale moonlight He prayed to the sky but he prayed in vain Heavy cloud but no rain Heavy cloud but no rain Cmaj7 D Am7 D The sun won't shine till the clouds are gone Am7 Bm7 Cmaj7 D The clouds won't go till their work is done Cm6 And every morning you'll hear me pray E7 If only it would rain today I asked my baby if there'd be some way She said she'd save her love for a rainy day I look in the sky but I look in vain Heavy cloud but no rain You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA Am Am6 Am7 Cm Cmaj7 Cmaj Cm6 D E7 Bm Bm7 Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
