A        Em        G    D
What good is that happy lie
 A        Em    G         D           A    A7
All you wanted from the start was to cry

[Verse 1]

         Em7         A      D   Bm
Well it looks like another fall
     Em7               A       D  Bm
My friends they don't help at all
          Em7            A         D   Bm
And I'm feeling kind of cold and small
             C          G        D
Think I'll look up my rainy day man

[Verse 2]

        Em7        A         D     Bm
And it does me no good to pretend
           Em7         A               D    Bm
When he's made a hole much too big to mend
        Em7          A              D     Bm
And it looks like I lose again my friend
                    C           G        D
Guess I'll have to look up my rainy day man

[Bridge]

 Bm   F#m7
Rainy day man
    Em7          A
He don't like sunshine
 Bm           F#m7
Don't chase rainbows
    Em7        A
He don't need good times
 Bm       F#m7
Grey days roll in
     Em7         A
And then you'll see him
         Em7     A
It's an empty feelin'
Em7     A
Now I need him

[Verse 3]

           Em7                  A     D     Bm
All those noble thoughts they don't belong
        Em7             A                  D   Bm
If you can't hide the truth with a happy song
             Em7           A         D    Bm
And since I knew where I stood all along
             C          G        D
Think I'll look up my rainy day man

[Bridge]

 Bm      F#m7    Em7        A
Simple pleasures all evade you
             Bm         F#m7    Em7       A
And the store-bought treasures none can save you
 Bm       F#m7     Em7       A
Look for signs to ease the pain
        Em7   A
I said, ask again
               Em7      A
Why don't you pray for rain

[Verse 4]

        Em7         A      D   Bm
Oh, it looks like another fall
     Em7               A       D  Bm
My friends they don't help at all
          Em7            A         D   Bm
And I'm feeling kind of cold and small
             C          G        D
Think I'll look up my rainy day man
               C      G         D
All I have to do is look at my baby
 C            G       D
Look up my rainy day man

[Outro]

        C          G        D
Oooo, look up my rainy day man
               C
All I have to do
     G                   D
Is look up my rainy day man...
