Rhapsody in the Rain - Lou Christie

Ba-by the rain-drops play for me
A lone-ly rhap-so-dy 'cause on our first date
We were mak-in' out in the rain

And in this car our love went much too far
It was ex-cit-ing as thun-der
To-night I won-der where you are

The wind-shield wi-pers seemed to say
"To-ge-ther, to-ge-ther, to-ge-ther, to-ge-ther"
And now they are say-ing
"Oh, ne-ver, ne-ver"
Ooh-wee, ooh-wee, ba-by

[Rhap-so-dy in the ra-a-a-ain
Rhap-so-dy in the ra-a-a-ain
An-gels keep cry-in' for me (don't, stop)
An-gels keep cry-in' for me (don't, stop)]

[Rhap-so-dy in the ra-a-a-ain
Rhap-so-dy in the ra-a-a-ain
Rhap-so-dy]


"Lightnin' Strikes" - Lou Christie


Lis-ten to me, ba-by, you got-ta un-der-stand
You're old e-nough to know the ma-kings of a man
Lis-ten to me, ba-by, it's hard to set-tle down
Am I ask-ing too much for you to stick a-round?

E-very boy wants a girl
He can trust to the ve-ry end
Ba-by, that's you
Won't you wait?
But till then

When I see lips beg-gin' to be kissed (Stop)
I can't stop (Stop)
I can't stop my-self

[Light-ning's strik-ing a-ga-in
Lightn-ing's strik-ing a-ga-in]

and Na-ture's tak-in' o-ver my one-tra-ack mind
Be-lieve it or not, you're in my heart all the time
All the girls are say-in' that you'll end up a fool
For the time be-ing, ba-by, live by my rules

When I set-tle down
I want one ba-by on my mind
For-give and for-get
And I'll make up
For all lost time

If she's put to-ge-ther fine and readin' my mind (Stop)
I can't stop (Stop)
I can't stop my-self

[Light-ning's strik-ing a-ga-in
Light-ning's strik-ing a-gain and a-gain and a-gain]

guitar solo

There's a cha-pel in the pines
Wait-ing for us a-round the bend
Pic-ture in your mind
Love fo-re-ver
But till then

If she gives me a sign that she wants to make time (Stop)
I can't stop (Stop)
I can't stop myself (Stop, stop)

CHORUS

[light-ning's strik-ing a-gain and a-gain and a-gain
light-ning's strik-ing a-gain and a-gain and a-gain]
