Great Song, I'd say top 10 Mo-Town songs ever.
It's very simple, only three chords are used.
Mostly, the song consists of Piano, Bass, and Various Strings.
This is my first time publishing a guitar work so bare with me.
Listen to the song to get a feel to it.
Try to make it a little bouncy.

Bbm
Sunshine, blue sky, please go away,
My girl has found another, and gone away
Ebsus2
With her went my future, my life is filled with gloom,
Bbm
So day after day, I stay locked up in my room
Fm Ebsus2
I know to you it might sound strange,
Bbm
I wish it would rain (oh how I wish that it would rain)
Ebsus2
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah
Bbm
Cause so badly
I wanna go outside (such a lovely day)
Everyone knows that a man ain't supposed to cry
Ebsus2
But listen, I got to cry, cuz crying, ooooooooh,
Bbm
Is the pain, oh yeah
Fm
Yeah you know people, this hurt I feel inside,
Ebsus2
Words, they, could never explain,
Bbm
I wish it would rain (oh how i wish that it would rain)
Ebsus2 Bbm
Oh let it rain, rain, rain, rain (oh how i wish that it would rain)
Ooooooh baby
Let it rain (rain, rain)
Oh yeah, let it rain
Day in day out, my tear stained face
Pressed against my window pane
I search the skies, well, desperately for rain
Cause rain drops will hide my teardrops and no one will ever know
That I'm crying (crying) crying (crying)
When I go outside
To the world outside my tears I refuse to explain,
I wish it would rain (oh how I wish that it would rain)
Rain, rain, rain (oh how I wish that it would rain)
ooooh baby
Let it rain
I need rain to disguise the tears in my eyes
Yeah, You know I'm a man, I ain't got no pride,
Til it rains, I'm gonna stay inside,
Let it rain, Let it rain
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah...
Oh how I wish that it would rain...
