1st verse: I'm no stranger to the rain I'm a friend of thunder Friend, is it any wonder lightning strikes me I've fought with the devil Got down on his level But I never gave in, so he gave up on me 2nd verse: I'm no stranger to the rain I can spot bad weather And I'm good at finding shelter in a downpour I've been sacrificed by brothers Crucified by lovers But through it all I withstood the pain I'm no stranger to the rain Bridge: But when I get that foggy feeling When I'm feeling down If I don't keep my head up, I may drown But it's hard to keep believing I'll even come out even While the rain beats your hope in the ground And the night is really coming down 3rd verse: I'm no stranger to the rain But there'll always be tomorrow and I'll beg steal or borrow A little sunshine I'll put this cloud behind me that's how the man designed me to ride the wind and dance in a hurricane I'm no stranger to the rain Oh no I'm no stranger to the rain (solo) (repeat first three lines of 1st verse, last five lines of 3rd verse)
