[Intro]
C Am  x2


[Verse 1]
C                          Am
I see the lights glow over Auckland
C                                      Am
From where I sit at the tip of the Coromandel
C                                           Am
The fish are biting and the cold beer keeps flowing
Dm                                       Am       G
But I just can't stop thinking about the rain


[Verse 2]
C                                   Am
If I could see that far, I'd see to Argentina
C                                          Am
From where I sit down the coast of the Coromandel
    C                             Am
The family's all around me and my faithful dogs beside me
Dm                                       Am      G
But I just can't stop thinking 'bout the rain


[Chorus]
Dm                         Am
It rains on me when I'm forgiving
Dm                         E
It rains on me when I have sinned
    F                                 C
The sun's been beating down on me all summer
Dm                                       Am       G
But I just can't stop thinking about the rain


[Verse 3]
C                           Am
My body keeps on falling to pieces
C                                        Am
I've tried everything except for finding Jesus
C                                         Am
The doctor says I'll keep getting sick if I don't change my ways
Dm                                       Am       G
But I just can't stop thinking about the rain


[Verse 4]
C                                               Am
You think you've got it bad, you don't know the meaning
C                                    Am
Weeks in hospital, I'll never be the same
C                                     Am
And I refuse to blame you even though you won't do the same
Dm                                       Am       G
But I just can't stop thinking about the rain


[Chorus]
Dm                      Am
It rains on me when I'm forgiven
Dm                         E
It rains on me when I have sinned
    F                                 C
The sun's been beating down on me all summer
Dm                                       Am       G
But I just can't stop thinking about the rain


[Interlude]
F   Dm     x3
Gm  Dm  C


[Verse 5]
F                          Dm
I see the lights glow over Auckland (If I could see that far, I'd see to Argentina)
F                                  Dm
From where I sit at the tip of the Coromandel (From where I sit down the coast of the Coromandel)
F                                    Dm
I can't believe you're walkin' away (Boy, we won't go through this again)
Gm                                       Dm     C
And I just can't stop thinking about the rain


[Chorus]
Gm                      Dm
It rains on me when I'm forgiven
Gm                         E7
It rains on me when I have sinned
    F                                 C
The sun's been beating down on me all summer
Dm                                       Am       G
But I just can't stop thinking about the rain
       Dm
Like a farmer in the drought
       Am
Like a garden with no flowers
Dm                                   Am
I just can't stop thinking 'bout the rain
