              This isn't my work! 
All the credit goes to other people who worked (maybe hard, I dont know) to this.... 
I uploaded this because i noticed it isn't on. 
Once again,say good stuff about the people who actually did this. 
+ this song is almost identical to CCR version (the original).

 G                  C                    G 
  Long as I remember the rain been comin' down 
  G                         C                G 
  Clouds of mystery pourin' confusion on the ground 
   
  C                    G 
  Good men through the ages  
  C                  G 
  Tryin' to find the sun 
  C            D 
  And I wonder still I wonder 
  Em                      G 
  Who'll stop the rain 
 
  G                            C                G 
  I went down Virginia seeking shelter from the storm 
  G                Bm      C                 G 
  Caught up in the fable I watched the tower grow   
 
  C                   G 
  Five-year plans and new deals 
  C                 G 
  Wrapped in golden chains 
  C             D 
  And I wonder, still I wonder 
  Em                      G 
  Who'll stop the rain 
 
  Break: 
 
  G-D   Am-C-Em   D-G 
 
 
  G                          C                  G 
  Heard the singers playin', how we cheered for more 
      G                  Bm           C             G 
  The crowd had rushed together, just tryin to keep warm 
 
  C                   G 
  Still the rain kept pourin' 
  C            G 
  Fallin on my ears 
  C             D 
  And I wonder, still I wonder 
  Em 
  Who'll stop the rain... 
 
  Repeat intro pattern until fadeout
