Some one told me long a go

and it’s been com in’ for some time.

When it’s o ver, so they say,

it ’ll rain a sun ny day.

I know;

shin in’ down like (C)wa ter.

I want to (G)know,

have you (C)ev er seen the (Am)rain?

I want to (G)know,

have you (C)ev er seen the (Am)rain

Yes ter day, and days be fore,

’Til for ev er, on it goes

through the cir cle, fast and slow.

I know;

and it can’t stop, I won der.
