Intro: G G D C C C D G

   G
   Rainy day people always seem to know
             Am
   when it's time to call.
   C                      D
   Rainy day people don't talk
                                 G
   they just listen till they've heard it all.
   C                      D 
   Rainy day lovers don't lie when they tell you,
   C                      G
   they've been down like you.
   C                      D
   Rainy day people don't mind
                      G
   if you're cryin' a tear or two.
    
   G 
   If you get lonely all you really need 
           Am
   is that rainy day love.
   C                    D
   Rainy day people all know there's no sorrow
              G
   they can't rise above.
   C                      D
   Rainy day lovers don't love any others,
                     G
   that would not be kind.
   C                    D
   Rainy day people all know how it hangs
           G
   on your peace of mind.

               Am
   when you're feeling blue,
   C                           D
   High stepping strutters who land in the gutters
             G
   sometimes need one too.
   C                           D
   Take it or leave it, or try to believe it,

   if you've been down too long.
   C                      D
   Rainy day lovers don't hide love inside
             G
   they just pass it on.
   C                      D
   Rainy day lovers don't hide love inside
             G
   they just pass it on.
