Lyrics

I’m no stran ger to the rain.

(Bb)I’m a friend of thun der.

Friend, is it an y won der light ning (F)strikes

me?

I’ve (C)fought with the dev il, got (Eb)down on his lev el.

But I (Bb)nev er gave in, so he gave up on (C)me.

(F)I’m no stran ger to the rain.

(Bb)I can spot bad weath er, and I’m good at find ing shel ter in a (F)down

pour.

I’ve been (C)sac ri ficed by broth ers, (Eb)cru ci fied by lov ers, but (Bb)through it all I with stood the (C)pain.

I’m no stran ger to the (F)rain.

When I (Bb)get that fog gy feel ing, (F)what I’m a feel ing now, if (Bb)I don’t keep my head, I may (F)drown.

But it’s (Dm)hard to keep be liev in’ if I’ll (Am)e ven come out e ven, while the (Bb)rain beats a hole in the (Gm)ground,

and to (Eb)night it’s real ly com in’ (C)down.

(F)I’m no stran ger to the rain,

but there’ll (Bb)al ways be to mor row, and I’ll beg, steal, or bor row a lit tle (F)sun

shine.

I’ll (C)put this cloud be hind me, that’s (Eb)how the man de signed me, to (Bb)ride the wind and dance in a hur ri cane.

I’m no stran ger to the (Dm)rain,

oh, (G7)no.

(Bb)I’m no (C7)stran ger to the (F)rain.

(F)I’m no stran ger to the rain.

(Bb)I’m a friend of thun der.

Friend, is it an y won der light ning (F)strikes

me?

But I’ll (C)put this cloud be hind me, that’s (Eb)how the man de signed me, to (Bb)ride the wind and dance in a hur ri cane.

I’m no stran ger to the (Dm)rain,

oh, (G7)no.

(Bb)I’m no (C)stran ger to the (F)rain.
