Thankful for the Rain
Johnson/McGehee/Murphy
Album: The Guitar Song
INTRO: E
E
You say hello like a long lost friend
B7
And play me like an old violin
B7
In a day or two you're gone again
E
And I wonder why I keep playin'
I sit and watch the clouds each day
Wonderin' when they'll turn to gray
And you come and you go, like a storm across the coast
And expect me to be thankful for the rain
Well I guess I should be thankful for all the nights of straight downpours
And soakin' up every drop I get
'Cause who knows how long I'll have to wait, 'til you come blowin' back my way
I'm learnin' to be thankful for the rain
I know when the morning comes
The truth will rise up like the sun
As I'm cleanin' up the damage done
There's everything I've prayed for
B7
You come and you go like a storm across the coast
E
And expect me to be thankful for the rain
