Key: A major

Verse 1
G G 
 
Now ladies and gentlemen,
five of the most greatest guys
I've known in show business
for so many wonderful years,
and we miss them so much,
but one of them is still around
C C 
 
G G 
 
and thank God he's still blowing.
Ladies and gentlemen,
the famous Temptations.
This is a dedication to them.
It's called I Wish It Would Rain.
C C 
 
G G 
 
C C 
 
G G 
 
Check it out.
Sunshine, blue skies, please go away
The girl found another and gone away
C C 
 
With her went my future,
my life is filled with gloom
G G 
 
So day after day,
I stay locked up in my room
D D 
 
C C 
 
I know to you, it might sound strange
G G 
 
C C 
 
But I wish it would rain, oh yeah
G G 
 
Oh so badly, I wanna go outside
Everyone knows,
a man ain't supposed to cry
C C 
 
Listen, I've got to cry,
G G 
 
cause crying eases the pain, oh yeah
D D 
 
Girl, I hurt and I feel inside,
C C 
 
words can never explain,
G G 
 
C C 
 
I wish it would rain, oh yeah
G G 
 
C C 
 
G G 
 
Let it rain, let it rain, let it rain
C C 
 
G G 
 
C C 
 
G G 
 
Let it rain, it rain, let it rain, let it rain,
C C 
 
G G 
 
let it rain, let it rain
Day in, day out, my tears stain face
Pressed against the window pane
My eyes search the skies,
so desperately for a rainfall
C C 
 
Raindrops will hide my teardrops,
and no one will ever know
G G 
 
That I'm crying, crying, when I go outside
D D 
 
To the world outside my tears,
C C 
 
I refuse to explain
G G 
 
C C 
 
Oh, I wish it would rain, oh yeah
G G 
 
C C 
 
Let it rain, let it rain
G G 
 
You know a man,
C C 
 
a man ain't supposed to cry
G G 
 
C C 
 
Let it rain, let it rain
G G 
 
I got too much pride
C C 
 
G G 
 
Let it rain, you know a man,
C C 
 
a man ain't supposed to cry
G G 
 
C C 
 
Let it rain, just let it rain
G G 
 
I got tears in my eyes
C C 
 
Just let it rain
G G 
 
You know a man,
C C 
 
a man ain't supposed to cry
G G 
 
C C 
 
So let it rain, let it rain
G G 
 
You know a man,
C C 
 
a man ain't supposed to cry
G G 
 
C C 
 
So let it rain, just let it rain
G G 
 
C C 
 
Let it rain, yeah, let it rain
G G 
 
C C 
 
Oh, no, man, a man, a man is a poor man
G G 
 
So let it rain, oh, yeah
Thank you! You
