Em        Emadd9    Em        Emadd9
Bus stop, wet day, she's there,  I say,
  Em          Emadd9   Em    Emadd9
"Please, share my um - brel - la!"
Em         Emadd9    Em         Emadd9
Bus stops, bus goes, she stays, love grows...
   Em    Emadd9   Em    Emadd9
...Under  my um - brel - la!"


D    G         D    Em            Cmaj7                D
    All that summer we enjoyed it, wind and rain and shine,
 Em       Emadd9   Em      Emadd9         Em     D       Em
That um - brella,  we em - ployed it, by August she was mine!


  G          F#7                Bm   Bm/A    Gmaj7
Every morning I would see her waiting at the stop,
      Gmaj7/F#       Em6
Some - times she'd shopped,

 G               F#7             Bm        Bm/A      Gmaj7
All the people stared, as if we were both quite in - sane,
      Gmaj7/F#    Em6                  F#7             Bm     B
Some - day,    my name, and hers, are going to be the same! | /  /  /  / |


 Em        Emadd9   Em         Emadd9
That's the way the whole thing started,
 Em    Emadd9    Em    Emadd9
Silly, but it's true,
  Em    Emadd9  Em        Emadd9       Em    Emadd9   Em
Thinking  of a sweet ro - mance be - ginning   in a queue!


D     G       D       Em              Cmaj7                D
    Came the sun, the ice was melting, no more sheltering now,
 Em     Emadd9      Em       Emadd9  Em    D    Em
Nice to think that that um - brella led me to a vow!

 G               F#7             Bm        Bm/A      Gmaj7
All the people stared, as if we were both quite in - sane,
