E D G F#m
What good is that happy lie
E D G D E
All you wanted from the start was to cry girl
Bm E A
It looks like another fall
Bm E A
Your friends don't seem to help at all
Bm E A
When you're feeling kind of cold and small
Bm E A
Call on your rainy day man
Bm E A
It does you no good to pretend girl
Bm E A
You've made a hole that's much too big to mend
Bm E A
And it looks like you lose again, my friend
Bm E A
So call on your rainy day man
F#m E Dmaj7 C#7
Now rainy day man he don't like sunshine
F#m E
He don't chase rainbows
Dmaj7 C#7
He don't need good times
F#m E
Grey days rolling
Dmaj7 C#7
Then you'll see him
Bm F#m
Empty feeling
Bm E
Now you need him
Bm E A
All those noble thoughts don't belong
Bm E A
You can't hide the truth with a happy song
Bm E A
And you knew where you stood all along
Bm E A
Call on your rainy day man
F#m E Dmaj7 C#7
Now simple pleasures they all evade you
F#m E Dmaj7 C#7
Store-bought treasures none can save you
F#m E Dmaj7 C#7
Ask for signs to ease the pain
Bm F#m
Ask again
Bm E
Go on and pray for rain
Bm E A
It looks like another fall
Bm E A
Your friends don't seem to help at all
Bm E A
When you're feeling kind of cold and small
Bm E A
Call on your rainy day man
