Verse
E
I knew a man who was afraid to love
E
to lay his heart on the bathroom rug
G#m A
he drank his coffee in the same old mug
E
and sat in silence 'til the world fell numb
E
until the day when a girl came by
E
she had eyes like the rising tide
G#m A
he felt a sharpness deep inside
E
the kind of ache that can't be satisfied
Chorus
A B C#m A
we hate the rain when it fills up our shoes
B C#m A E
but how we love when it washes our cars
A B #m A
we love to love when it fills up the room
B C#m A E
but when it leaves oh we're cursing the stars
Verse
E
so he turned to the radio
E
and he went to a picture show
Cm A
tried to find someone else who knows
E
all the hurt that a heart can hold
E
she smelled like cinnamon and winter clove
E
and sparked like firewood inside a stove
G#m A
wanted to ask her just to sit and stay
E
instead he watched as she walked away
Chorus
A B C#m A
we hate the rain when it fills up our shoes
B C#m A E
but how we love when it washes our cars
A B C#m A
we love to love when it fills up the room
B C#m A E
but when it leaves oh we're cursing the stars
Bridge
Ooooooooooh
C#m, A, E, B,C#m, A, B)x2
Chorus
A B C#m A
we hate the rain when it fills up our shoes
B C#m A E
but how we love when it washes our cars
A B C#m A
we love to love when it fills up the room
B C#m A E
but when it leaves oh we're cursing the stars
