Heavy cloud no rain

[Verse 1]
Am6 Bm7/A
Turned on the weather man just after the news
I needed sweet rain to wash away my blues
He looked at the chart but he look in vain

Heavy cloud but no rain

[Verse 2]
Am6 Bm7/A
Back in time with Louis XVI
At the court of the people he was number one
He'd be the bluest blood they'd ever seen
When the king said hi to the guillotine
Cm6
The royal astrologer was run out of breath
E7#9 Bb13
He thought that maybe the rain would postpone his death
Am6 Bm7/A
He look in sky but he look in vain
Am6
Heavy cloud but no rain

[Verse 3]
Am6 Bm7/A
Well the land was cracking and the river was dry
Am6 Bm7/A
All the crops were dying when they ought to be high
Am6 Bm7/A
So to save his farm from the banker's draft
Am6
The farmer took out a book on some old witchcraft
Cm6
He made a spell and a potion on a midsummer's night
E7#9 Bb13
He killed a brindled calf in the pale moonlight
Am6 Bm7/A
He prayed to the sky but he prayed in vain
Am6
Heavy cloud but no rain

[Guitar Solo]

[Bridge]

Heavy cloud but no rain

Cmaj7 D Am7 D
The sun won't shine till the clouds are gone
Am7 Bm7 Cmaj7 D
The clouds won't go till their work is done
Cm6
And every morning you'll hear me pray
E7#9 Bb13
If only it would rain today

[Verse 4]
Am6 Bm7/A
I asked my baby if there'd be some way
Am6 Bm7/A
She said she'd save her love for a rainy day
Am6 Bm7/A
I look in the sky but I look in vainAm6
Am6
Heavy cloud but no rain
