Ev'ry time it rains, it rains 

 C            D7
Pennies from heaven.

Don't you know each cloud contains 

 C             D7
Pennies from heaven?

You'll find your fortune falling all over town;

Be sure that your umbrella   is upside down.

Trade them for a package of 

  C           D7
Sunshine and flowers;

If you want the things you love, 

     C/B       Am
You must have showers.

There'll be pennies from heaven for you and me.
