Rain on the Window

[Intro]
C – E – G – Bb    (arpeggio slow, let ring)  
A♭ – C – E♭ – G    (roll gently upward)  
F – A♭ – C – E♭   (hold, slight ritardando)  
G – Bb – D – F     → resolve to C (both hands octave)

(Verse 1)  
(C               E       G         A♭)  
Rain taps the glass like it’s counting my days  
(      F             G            C       )  
Every drop reminds me of words we didn’t say  
(     A♭            C         E♭       G )  
You left your shadow folded inside my coat  
(      Fm           G7           C       )  
Now I wear it quietly, it still smells like smoke  

(Pre-chorus)  
( Dm              G             Cmaj7    )  
Time moves in circles, but never back to you  
( Dm              G7sus4      G7       )  
I keep rewriting endings that never come true  

(Chorus)  
( C         E       G        A♭     )  
Oh I’m still here, still breaking the same  
( F           G         C/E      )  
Carrying echoes that answer your name  
( A♭          C         E♭      G  )  
Love was a fire, now it’s only the rain  
( Fm          G7           C      )  
Falling forever, calling your name  

(Verse 2)  
(C               E         G       A♭)  
Streetlights bleed gold on the wet empty street  
(      F              G           C      )  
Every reflection looks like your feet  
(   A♭           C         E♭       G  )  
I almost believe if I stare long enough  
(     Fm            G7sus4     G7     C )  
You’ll step out the puddle and call my bluff  

(Chorus – same chords)  
( C         E       G        A♭     )  
Oh I’m still here, still breaking the same  
( F           G         C/E      )  
Carrying echoes that answer your name  
( A♭maj7      Cm7       Fm       G  )  
Love was a fire, now it’s only the rain  
( Fm          G7           C      C7 )  
Falling forever, calling your name  

(Bridge – half-time feel)  
( Am           Em          F         C )  
Maybe the rain is just heaven’s slow crying  
( Dm           G           Cmaj7     )  
For every goodbye that we keep on denying  

(Final Chorus – softer, then build)  
( C         E       G        A♭     )  
So I’m still here, still breaking the same  
( F           G         Am       G  )  
Whispering secrets that no one will claim  
( A♭          C/E       Fm      G  )  
Love left a scar that still feels like pain  
( Fm          G7sus4     G7      C )  
Rain keeps on falling… calling your name  

(Outro – return to intro shape, slower) 
C – E – G – Bb    (arpeggio, very soft)  
A♭ – C – E♭ – G    (let sustain)  
F – A♭ – C          → hold  
C (single note, very quiet, let die)
