The day that the rains came down 

 -5  4    4     5    4  4
Moth-er Earth smiled a-gain 

 7  -7   7  -6   -5     6
Now the li-lacs could bloom 

-6   6   -6     -5    4     5  -4
Now the fields could grow green-er

Buds were born, love was born 

 7 -7    7   -6    -5   6
As the young buds will grow 

-6  6   -6    -5   4    5  
So our young love will grow

Love, sweet   love

A ro-bin sang  a  song of  love 

-4   5 -4   5     -4    5
 A wil-low tree reached up 

-4  5    6 -5   5
To the    hea- vens 

-4 5  -4   5   -4   5  -4  5
As if to thank the sky  a-bove

For all that rain

That wel-come rain

We looked a-cross the mea-dow-land 

-4    5    -4   5  -4  5
And seemed to sense a kind 

-4 5  6 -5  5
Of a mi-ra-cle 

 5   -4   5   -4  5 -4   5
Much too deep to un-der-stand 

-3    4   7   -7
And there we were 

-6  6   -7  -6 6
So much in  love

The day that the rains came down 
Mountain streams swelled with pride 
Gone the dry river bed 
Gone the dust from the valley 

The day that the rains came down 
Buds were born, love was born 
As the young buds will grow 
So our young love will grow 

 5     -4    6
Love, sweet love 

-6     -7    7
Rain, sweet rain 
Play on a harmonica— watch which holes to blow & draw, with sound
