G                      D            C 
It was rainin' hard in Houston when I ran into her 
                  G                        D 
I searched for conversation but I was lost for words 
       C                    D             G                C 
Then a cloud of tear-filled memories came crashing down on me 
                          G                C                   D 
If it hadn't been for the pouring rain I'm sure she would have seen 
 
G            C   D            G  C 
Tears in the rain, hidin' the pain 
                      G                   D 
Maybe she'd come back if she could see me cry 
G              C  D                    G  Am 
She thinks I'm so strong, oh but she's so wrong 
         C                  D            G 
She just couldn't see these tears in the rain 
 
G                 D               C 
Now I regret that moment 'cause I didn't let her know 
                 G                      D 
How much I still loved her I was hopin' it would show 
        C                 D               G            C 
But the raindrops and the teardrops ran together on my face 
                  G            C                  D 
Now she'll never, ever know no one could take her place 
 
G            C   D            G  C 
Tears in the rain, hidin' the pain 
                      G                   D 
Maybe she'd come back if she could see me cry 
G              C  D                    G  Am 
She thinks I'm so strong, oh but she's so wrong 
         C                  D            G 
She just couldn't see these tears in the rain 
 
G              C  D                    G  Am 
She thinks I'm so strong, oh but she's so wrong 
         C                  D            G 
She just couldn't see these tears in the rain
