Tears Are Only Rain

Tears Are Only Rain
By Hank Thompson           [3/4 time]
 
G                              D7
When your lover cries hold her close and whisper low
                                      G
That tears are only rain to make love grow
                               D7
Kiss her tenderly and tell her that you love her so
                                     G
For tears are only rain to make love grow
  
   C                        G
Anyone can plant a seed but everybody knows
        C                  G                D7     G
It needs both sun and rain before it blooms into a rose
                                  D7
So when your lover cries hold her close and whisper low
                                      G
That tears are only rain to make love grow
                               D7
Now when your lover smiles let her set your heart a glow
                                         G
But don't forsake her when she's feeling low
                               D7
Hold her to your heart dry her eyes and let her know
                                      G
That tears are only rain to make love grow
        C                            G
She may smile because she knows your love is deep and true
    C                                 G    D7         G
But when she sheds a tear she may get blue because of you
                              D7
So when your lover cries tell her that you love her so
                                     G
For tears are only rain to make love grow
D7                                   G
For tears are only rain to make love grow
