This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.

VERSE 1: (simple picking of chords)

A(x0x22x) A/G#(4x2x20)

It's really coming down

C#m(x4x120) D(xx023x)

Raining cats and hounds

D/F#(2x023x) A(x02x2x)

It's falling on parades

Bm7(x242xx) E(02x10x)

And on the plans we've made

A(x02x2x) A/G#(4x2x20)

But there'll be other days

C#m(x4x120) D(xx023x)

And things will turn our way

D/F#(2x02xx) A(x0222x)

The rain has got to fall

E(02x10x)

It's April after all

REPEAT INTRO

VERSE 2:

Even the longest night

Will lead you to daylight

It's the way May leads to June

And it's how I've come to you

The world goes spinning round

Life goes up and down

And rain is bound to fall

It's April after all
