The Rain Has To Fall
Composer: Henning Ohlenbusch
Album: Turkey Andersen - Turkey Andersen
[Verse 1]
C Am Dm G
Well the rain has to fall 'cause we need all the water
Am F G C
But why's it have to fall in the middle of the day?
C Am Dm G
I prefer rain at night when it falls like it oughta
Am F G C
So I can hear it on the roof as I try to drift asleep
[Chorus]
F G
And the roof gets wet
F G
the house gets wet
F G
the trees get wet
F G
the grass gets wet
F G
the flowers gets wet
F G
the skunk gets wet
F G
the driveway gets wet
F G
the window gets wet
[Verse 2]
C Am Dm G
Drops in a puddle create circles inside circles
Am F G C
And drops on the pavement look like little crowns
C Am Dm G
When it rains on our street, there are streams by the sidewalks
Am F G C
Our own personal rivers that rush into town
[Chorus]
F G
And the town gets wet
F G
The streets get wet
F G
The buildings get wet
F G
The people get wet
F G
The umbrellas get wet
F G
Tips of shoes get wet
F G
The cars get wet
F G
The trucks get wet
[Instrumental Verse]
C Am Dm G
Am F G C
[Chorus]
F G
The dogs get wet
F G
The cats get wet
F G
The birds get wet
F G
The fish get wet
F G
The policeman gets wet
F G
The mailbox gets wet
F G
The bikes get wet
F G
The hats get wet
F G
The kids get wet
F G
The signs get wet
F G
The schools get wet
F G
The library gets wet
F G
The stones get wet
F G
The mountains get wet
F G
The beaches get wet
F G
The bridges get wet
F G
The grave stones get wet
F G
The squirrels get wet
F G
The stores get wet
