April Showers
Intro Verse:
D Em7 A Em7 D A7
Life is not a highway strewn with flowers;
D Em7 A Em7 D
Still it holds a goodly share of bliss;
F#m Bm F#m Fdim F#m B7
When the sun gives way to April showers,
A Bm7-5 E7 bm7-5 A Em7 D9 A7
Here's the point that you should never miss.
Melody:
A AM7 A A7 A E7 A D9
Though A - pril showers, may come your way,
A AM7 A A7 A E7 A D9
They bring the flowers, that bloom in May,
D Em7 E7 B7 Cdim Em B+
So if it's raining, have no regrets,
Em7 E7 Bm7-5 E7 Cdim
Because it isn't raining rain, you know,
A Cm7-5 A
It's raining vi - o - lets.
A AM7 A A7 A E7 A D9
And when you see clouds, up - on the hills,
A AM7 A B7 Cdim Em
You soon will see crowds, of daf - fo - dils.
B+ G G/F# Em7 Gdim
So keep on looking for a bluebird,
D Bm7 B7
And listen for his song
G E7 A7 Em7 A7 D
Whenever April showers come a - long.
