Season of the Rain Elton John/Bernie Taupin recorded by Nite People for their "P.M." album (1970) C - D7 - F - G C D7 Ice thaws the sun when autumn comes F C/E G/D And Bristol trips and bugy rides are over C D7 And the nucleus of everyone has disappeared F C/E G/D As winter holds my shoulder C So put on your make-up F Make up to me now C Kick off your sand-shoes D7 Throw them in the sea now G It's the season of the rain C You wear your big hat F I'll wear my check cap C Throw up your string bags D7 Into the old trap G It's the season of the rain C And I gotta get home F/C C I wanna go home again C - D7 - F - G C D7 Castles in the country see the maids of air F C/E G/D Rambling fires and canopies contain us C D7 And the waters of the countryside wash away our cares F C/E G/D Leave the city lights behind us repeat chorus ad lib
