Verse
D
I knew a man who was afraid to love
D
to lay his heart on the bathroom rug
Bm                          G
he drank his coffee in the same old mug
D
and sat in silence 'til the world fell numb
D
until the day when a girl came by
D
she had eyes like the rising tide
Bm                   G
he felt a sharpness deep inside
D
the kind of ache that can't be satisfied
 
Chorus
G            A            Bm           G
we hate the rain when it fills up our shoes
A            Bm           G         D
but how we love when it washes our cars
G           A            Bm           G
we love to love when it fills up the room
A             Bm             G           D
but when it leaves oh we're cursing the stars
 
Verse
D
so he turned to the radio
D
and he went to a picture show
Bm                     G
tried to find someone else who knows
D
all the hurt that a heart can hold
D
she smelled like cinnamon and winter clove
D
and sparked like firewood inside a stove
Bm                         G
wanted to ask her just to sit and stay
D
instead he watched as she walked away
 
Chorus
G            A            Bm            G
we hate the rain when it fills up our shoes
A           Bm            G          D
but how we love when it washes our cars
G            A           Bm           G
we love to love when it fills up the room
A             Bm             G            D
but when it leaves oh we're cursing the stars

Chorus
G            A            Bm           G
we hate the rain when it fills up our shoes
A            Bm           G         D
but how we love when it washes our cars
G           A            Bm           G
we love to love when it fills up the room
A             Bm             G           D
but when it leaves oh we're cursing the stars
