1[C5].She cried to the southern wind
2.Bad dreamer what's your name
'bout alov[G5]e that was sure to end
it's like we're riding on the same train
e[F5]very dream her heart was gone
if you don't there'll be more pain
heading for a [C5]showdown
there's gonna be a showdown
CHORUS
and it's a [G5]raining all over the[F5] world
it's [F5]raining all over the [F5]world
