(Intro: D)


        *D
         Rain drops pitter-patter, 


         Runnin' down your window 

                                        *A
         Heaven knows it's oh-so cold outside 

         Em7       **Em6           D                 G
         How could I ever think of  walkin' out that door, 

            D                     A       D  
         As if I didn't need your love anymore. 

 
         D
         Up above the clouds 


         The sun is always shining 

                                                    A
         Or so they say, though I'm really not that sure 

         Em7         Em6          D                 G
         How could I ever think of walkin' out that door, 

            D                     A       D
         As if I didn't need your love anymore. 


               G                    A              D  
         Well I know sometimes I've treated you so badly

                G           A              D
         And I'm sorry if I caused you any pain

             G              A  
         But you know me by now, 

                      D         Bm
         That's how I love you, 

                 E                E7                  A 
         Just as true as you know cats don't like the rain. 


         D
         Listen to the four winds blow, 


         I know you think I'm sleepin', 

                                           A
         I love the way you touch me tenderly 

         Em7         Em6          D                 G 
         How could I ever think of walkin' out that door, 

            D                     A       D 
         As if I didn't need your love anymore. 


         Em7      Em6
         Don't misunderstand me, 

         D           G
         How can I explain? 

         D              A                   D 
         Just remember, cats don't like the rain 

                   A                   D
         Remember, cats don't like the rain 

                        A                   D     A  D
         Just remember, cats don't like the rain.
