G                  C                   G  
Long as I remember rain's been falling down  
 G                Em        C                 G  
clouds of mystery pourin' confusion on the ground  


C                    G  
Good men through the ages  
C                  G  
tryin' to find the sun  
C            D  
and I wonder still I wonder  
Em                      G  
who'll stop the rain  


G                            C                G  
I went down Virginia seeking shelter from the storm  
G              Em    C                 G  
Caught up in a fable watched the tower grow  


C                   G  
Five-year plans and New Deals  
C                 G  
wrapped in golden chains  
C             D  
and I wonder, still I wonder  
Em                      G  
who'll stop the rain  

C  G   D      Am C Em  D  G  

G                           C                  G  
Heard the singers' playing, how we cheered for more  
   G                  Em           C             G  
the crowd had rushed together, just tryin to keep warm  


C                   G  
Still the rain kept pourin'    
C            G  
Fallin on my ears            
C             D  
And I wonder, still I wonder  
Em  
who'll stop the rain...
