Baby, the rain is fallin'
A7sus2 Emaj7
All around me today

I got caught without my raincoat

The day you went away

Baby, I'm walkin' alone now
A7sus2 Emaj7
What a terrible price to pay
C#m7 A E/G# Gadd#11
I left you standin' in the chapel
E E/G# A7sus2
The bell was gonna ring for you that day
[Chorus]
