E

[Verse 1]
E
You say, "Hello", like a long lost friend
                            B
And play me like an old violin
B
In a day or two, you're gone again
                       E
And I wonder why I keep playin'

[Verse 2]
E
I sit and watch the clouds each day
                             B
Wonderin' when they'll turn to gray
B
And you come and you go, like a storm across the coast
                             E
And expect me to be thankful for the rain

[Verse 3]
E
Well, I guess I should be thankful for
E
All the nights of straight downpours
                         B
I'm soakin' up every drop I get
B
'Cause who knows how long I'll have to wait
B
'Til you come blowin' back my way
                            E
I'm learnin' to be thankful for the rain

[Verse 4]
E
I know when the mornin' comes
                                 B
The truth will rise up like the sun
B
'Cause I'm cleanin' up the damage done
                   E
That's everything I prayed for

[Instrumental]
E        B

[Outro]
B
You come and you go, like a storm across the coast
                                         E
And expect me to be thankful for the rain
