Right As Rain Lyrics

/=either: one beat in a measure; splitting measure;
repeat same chord this measure
^=splitting a beat, i.e., chord comes in on a half beat count
ex.: C /^G/B / Bbo7 ; the G/B played
1 2 & 3 4 on the AND after 2
Gj7 / / Cj7 |Cj7 / / / |Gj7 / / Cj7 |Cj7 / / / |
Gj7 |/ |D-7 |/ |C
Blue misty morning, an empty street in Ol' Paree
|G/B |A- |A-/D |
She appeared like the angel of destiny
Gj7 |/ |D-7 |/ |
He spent a lifetime tryin' to reach beyond that rainbow
C |G/B |A- |A-/D |
And found when you look down it gives you vertigo.
E- |A9 |D7 |G9 |
The dancehall is deserted where lonely worlds collide
C |B+ E- |A-7 |A-/D |
This must be where dreams explode before your very eyes
G |G/F#|G/E |G/F
While the world outside grows more insane
|C |G/B
Bein' with you, I feel no pain
|A- A-/D / / |Gj7 |C /^G/B / Bbo7 |
True like blue, right as rain
A- A-/D / / |Gj7 / / Cj7 |Cj7 |Gj7 / / Cj7 |Cj7 ||
Right as rain.
Gj7 |/ |D-7 |/ |
I hope real soon I'll be hearing from 'ya
C |G/B |A- |A-/D |
I'll be in the wings, I'll be cheering for you
Gj7 |/ |D-7 |/ |
Funny how people think your life is so complete
C |G/B |A- |A-/D |
When it's really you who envies the man on the street.
E- |A9 |D7 |G9 |
I must've strayed from a path wandering through the catacombs
C / / / |B7+ Bb7+ |A-7 |A-/D |
And you came along to guide my restless spirit home
G |G/F# |G/E |G/F
I can't tell you why, no I wouldn't try to explain
|C |G/B
Bein' with you, I feel no pain
|A- A-/D / / |Gj7 |C /^G/B / Bbo7 |
True like blue, right as rain
A- A-/D / / |Gj7 / / Cj7 |Cj7 |Gj7 / / Cj7 |Cj7 |
Right as rain.
|D /^B- / E-7 |E-7 |C / / Fj7 |Fj7 |Fj7 ||
G |G/F# |G/E |G/F
It's all in the cards, it's all in the game
|C |G/B
Bein' with you, I feel no pain
|A- A-/D / / |Gj7 |C /^G/B / Bbo7 |
True like blue, right as rain
A- A-/D / / |Gj7 / / Cj7 |Cj7 |Gj7 / / Cj7 |Cj7 |
Right as rain.
