Listen to the rhythm of the falling rain, telling me just what a fool I've been

Rain, please tell me now, does that seem fair, for her to steal my heart away when she don't care 
   Bm         Bm7             G           A          D   A7 
I can't love another when my heart's somewhere far away. 
     D6          D               G                          D6             D           A 
The only girl I care about has gone away, looking for a brand new start
