INTRO
[Fm13] [Dm7b5] [F9]
I walk around heavy-hearted and sad
[C] [C13]
Night comes around and I'm still feeling bad
[D9] [D13]
Rain pourin' down Blinding every hope I had
[G] [Eb7] [Gdim7] [G7] [G+]
This pitter 'n patter 'n beatin' 'n spatterin' drives me mad
[C] [D]
Love, love, love, love
[G11] [G7] [Gaug]
This misery will be the end of me
VERSE 1
[Gaug] [Cmaj7] [Gdim] [Dm7] [G7]
Don't know why there's no sun up in the sky
[Gaug] [Cmaj7] [Am7] [Dm7] [Fdim]
Stormy weather since my gal and I ain't
[Cmaj7] [Am7] [Fmaj7] [Gaug] [Cmaj7] [Am7] [Dm7] [G7]
together Keeps rainin' all the time the time
VERSE 2
[Gaug] [Cmaj7] [Gdim] [Dm7] [G7]
Life is bare, gloom and misery everywhere
[Gaug] [Cmaj7] [Am7] [Dm7] [Fdim] [Cmaj7] [Am7]
Stormy weather just can't get my poor self together
[Dm7] [Fdim] [Cmaj7] [Am7] [Fmaj7] [Gaug] [Cmaj7] [Fdim] [Cmaj7] [C7]
I'm weary all the time, so weary all the time
CHORUS
[F] [Fm] [C] [C7]
When she went away the blues walked in and met me
[F] [Fm] [C] [C7]
If she stays away old rockin' chair will get me
[F] [Fm] [C] [F] [C]
All I do is pray the Lord above will let me
[Am7] [D7] [G7]
walk in the sun once more
VERSE 3
[Gaug] [Cmaj7] [Gdim] [Dm7] [G7]
Can't go on, every thing I had is gone
[Gaug] [Cmaj7] [Am7] [Dm7] [Fdim]
Stormy weather since my gal and I ain't
[Cmaj7] [Am7] [Fmaj7] [Gaug] [Cmaj7] [Am7]
together Keeps rainin' all the time
[Fmaj7] [Gaug] [C]
Keeps rainin' all the time
