Verse:

  Dm        Cadd9    Dm        Cadd9    Dm          Cadd9     G7         A
I am the rain       held in disdain,  oceans and potions just add to my fame
      Dm                Cadd9     Dm              Cadd9
It's rhymed that in Spain,      I fall on the plain

     Dm            Cadd9    G7           A
The truth is I’m ruthless I can’t be contained

                I’m the rain

Dm                Cadd9        Dm               Cadd9
My friend the wind,      with breath he is twinned

Dm           Cadd9        G7         A
Blow high or low high tornadoes to spin

   Dm          Cadd9    Dm             Cadd9
My mother the cloud, in widows black shroud

       Dm          Cadd9         G7              A
Gives birth to the earth before fields can be ploughed

Dm         A           Dm          A
Up in the sky we’ve demand to supply

Bb      F        C
I am necessity, base of the recipe


               I'm the rain

    Dm         Cadd9      Dm       Cadd9
My cousin the snow lays blankets below

  Dm              Cadd9           G7          A
States that her flakes are but threads to be sown

   Dm        Cadd9     Dm        Cadd9
My rival the sun, who ripens the plum

    Dm           Cadd9           G7           A
Is feared and revealed he gives sight to the gun

Dm         A           Dm          A
Up in the sky we’ve demand to supply

Bb      Fmaj7   C
I am necessity, base of the recipe

Dm         A           Dm          A
Up in the sky we’ve demand to supply

Bb      Fmaj7   C

Dm       Cadd9       Dm          Cadd9
I am the rain, who’s held in disdain

    Dm            Cadd9     G7           A?       Dm*
The truth is I’m ruthless I can’t be contained
