Verse:

It was rain -ing, dear, when I met you

You smiled, the sun shone through

Then it rained a -gain and I lost you

Just why I nev -er knew.

Now ev -'ry time the storm clouds gath -er way up in the sky,

I see them all and I re -call those hap -py days gone by:

 

Chorus:

I get the blues when it rains,

The blues I can't lose when it rains

Each lit -tle drop that falls on my win -dow pane

Al -ways re -minds me of the trears I've shed in vain

I sit and wait for the sun

To shine down on me once a -gain

It rained when I found you, It rained when I lost you,

That's why I'm so blue when it rains.
