Song: Who'll Stop the Rain
By:   CCR

[intro:]   | 1 2 3 4| 1 2 3 4  | 1 2 3 4 | 1 2 3 4
           | G      | G     F# | Em      | Em    D |G     |G     |
                           {F# bass note is a passing note}        

[verse: 1]
G                    
Long as I remember
       C               G            
The rains been coming down
G                          
Clouds of mystery pouring
   C                G 
Confusion on the ground
C                     G    
Good men through the ages
   C                G
Trying to find the sun
C               D                
And I wonder, still I wonder
|Em                     |G    |G    |
 Who'll stop the rain?

[verse: 2]
G                                
I went down Virginia
          C              G
Seeking shelter from a storm
G               Bm 
Caught up in a fable
C                    G
Watched the towers 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    |G    |
 Who'll stop the rain?
           |1 2 3 4  |1 2 3 4 |1  2 3 4  |1 2 3 4  |
[Bridge:]  |C   G D  |        |Am   C Em |      D  |G   |G   |
 
[verse: 3]
G                          
Heard the singers playing
 C                  G
How we cheered for more
G                   Bm     
The crowed rushed together
C               G
Trying to keep warm
C                      G        
Still the rain kept pouring
C              G
Falling on my ears
C                     D                 
And I wonder, still I wonder
|Em   {let ring}     | {pause} |
Who'll stop the rain?
