Raindrops Keep Falling on My Head - His Best Songs

B.J. Thomas (born Billy Joe Thomas) straddled the line between pop/rock and country, achieving success in both genres in the late '60s and '70s. At the beginning of his career, he leaned more heavily on rock &amp; roll, but by the mid-'70s, he had turned to country music, becoming one of the most successful country-pop stars of the decade.  Thomas began singing while he was a child, performing in church.

by B. J. Thomas


Intro: F-C-Bb-C

F                            Fmaj7
Raindrops keep falling on my head
    F7                               Bb               Am
and just like the guy whose feet are too big for his bed,
D7               Am   D7    Gm7
nothing seems to fit, Those raindrops are fallin' on my head they keep fallin'

C7        F                          Fmaj7
So I just did me some talkin' to the sun,
    F7                       Bb                 Am
and I said I didn't like the way he got things done
D7              Am   D7    Gm7
Sleepin' on the job, Those raindrops are fallin' on my head they keep fallin'

C7              F       Fmaj7
But there's one thing I know,
     Bb                C              Am
the blues they send to meet me, won't defeat me
                      D7              Gm7           Bb  C  Bb  C
It won't be long till happiness steps up to greet me

  F                          Fmaj7
Raindrops keep fallin' on my head,
    F7                             Bb               Am
but that doesn't mean my eyes will soon be turnin' red,
D7              Am   D7    Gm7
Cryin's not for me, cause I'm never gonna stop the rain by complainin'
C7          F     C7
because I'm free, nothings worryin' me

(instrumental) F-Fmaj7-Bb-C-Am

                      D7              Gm7           Bb  C  Bb  C
It won't be long till happiness steps up to greet me

Couldn't Stand The Weather

G      Em
I found a love for me
               C                         D
Darling just dive right in, and follow my lead
                G                 Em
Well I found a girl beautiful and sweet
          C                                  D
I never knew you were the someone waiting for me

                                 G
Cause we were just kids when we fell in love
              Em                     C               G  D
Not knowing what it was, I will not give you up this ti-ime
                   G                         Em
But darling just kiss me slow, your heart is all I own
             C                  D
And in your eyes you’re holding mine

       Em   C            G          D              Em
Baby, I’m dancing in the dark, with you between my arms
C                G     D                Em
Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favorite song
          C                G                 D              Em
When you said you looked a mess, I whispered underneath my breath
         C                G        D             
But you heard it, darling you look perfect tonight

               G                    Em
Well I found a woman, stronger than anyone I know
                C                                        D
She shares my dreams, I hope that someday I’ll share her home
           G             Em
I found a love, to carry more than just my secrets
         C                              D
To carry love, to carry children of our own

                              G                     Em 
We are still kids, but we’re so in love, fighting against all odds
                  C               G  D
I know that we’ll be alright this ti-ime
               G                            Em 
Darling just hold my hand, be my girl, I’ll be your man
          C              D
I see my future in your eyes



       Em   C            G          D              Em
Baby, I’m dancing in the dark, with you between my arms
C                G     D                Em
Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favorite song
          C                G                 D               Em
When you said you looked a mess, I whispered underneath my breath
         C                G        D             
But you heard it, darling you look perfect tonight

G Em C D 


       Em     C            G          D              Em
Baby, I’m dancing in the dark, with you between my arms
C                G     D                Em
Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favorite song
          C                G                 D               Em

Somewhere

Intro -- Dm

Dm                       F
This is the song where I listen

Bb                       G
This is the song where I sit still

  Dm                                     F
I called the dogs off all the things I?m missing

       Bb
And to everyone but you before I set sail


       G          Eb         Bb
I said good luck, good luck, good luck

          C/G
These are tough times

          Eb
But we?ll get by

     Bb
Good luck


Dm                         F
This is the song where you speak up

Bb                             G
This is the song where you get moving

    Dm                            F
You cried some trouble out into a tea cup

       Bb
And to me but no-one else before you threw it



         G          Eb         Bb
You said good luck, good luck, good luck

          C/G
These are tough times 

          Eb
But we?ll get by

     Bb
Good luck


Dm F Bb G (4 times)


Dm                            F
I put ashore in front of our apartment

    Bb                                       G
And watched you comb the stoop for shards of porcelain

     Dm                                         F
Satisfied that there were none that broke the silence

          Bb
And after this I promise not to interrupt again


      Dm                       F
Cause this is the song where I listen

Bb                       G
This is the song where I sit still

  Dm                                     F
Until our heartbeats drown out the clock ticking

        Bb
And the song is just I love you and always will


G          Eb         Bb
Good luck, good luck, good luck

          C/G
these are tough times

          Eb
But We?ll get by

     Bb
Good luck 

          C/G
these are tough times

          Eb
But We?ll get by

     Bb
Good luck 

          C/G
these are tough times

          Eb
But We?ll get by

     Bb
Good luck

This Is The Song

E                              B                 A
I don't have much to give, but I don't care for gold
A           G#             F#m                     E
What use is money, when you need someone to hold
E                              B               A
Don't have direction I'm just rolling down this road
A           G#             F#m                     E
Waiting for you to bring me in from out the cold

        F#m                                 G#m
You'll never know the endless nights, the rhyming of the rain,
   F#m                               B
Or how it feels to fall behind and watch you call his name

E                            A/F#m
Pack up and leave everything, don't you see what I can bring
A           G#         F#m      E
Can't keep this beating heart at bay
E                            A/F#m
Set my midnight terror free, I will give you all of me
C#m         F#7     A       E
Leave your lover, leave him for me

E                               B              A
We sit in bars and raise our drinks to growing old
A       A/G#                F#m         E
I'm in love with you and you will never know
E                              B             A
But if I can't have you I'll walk this life alone
A              G#              F#m            E
Spare you the rising storms and let the river flow

        F#m                                 G#m
You'll never know the endless nights, the rhyming of the rain,
    F#m                              B
Or how it feels to fall behind and watch you call his name

E                             A/F#m
Pack up and leave everything, don't you see what I can bring
A           G#         F#m      E
Can't keep this beating heart at bay
E                           A/F#m
Set my midnight terror free, I will give you all of me
C#m         F#7     A         E
Leave your lover, leave him for me
C#m         F#7     A         E
Leave your lover, leave him for me

Here's the melody of this amazing song, have fun!

Sad Machine

F#m              A            E
Waited for your call, for the moon
   F#m                  A           E
To release me from the longest afternoon
     F#m               A            E  
I've re-arranged parts of my living room
     Bm                              D                                   
But time is hard to kill since I met you



    F#m            A                  E 
I'm looking at the cars that drive on by
      F#m              A           E 
While spring is making promise outside
F#m                A         E     
Red cars are quite rare I realise
       Bm                      D
Then I wonder which colour you like



A
Seven little numbers
       E
Baby, they could be a start
F#m
Seven little numbers
       D
Baby, I know yours by heart




F#m       A         E                                   F#m
    Woo-oah, oh-oh, all the pretty things that we could be
          A           E                          F#m
    Woo-oah, oh-oh, I feel you in every heart beat
          A             E                                        Bm
    Woo-oah, oh-oh, were you ever in a dream that could come true
              D                  F#m                  
These numbers could be lucky for you


(Break)


F#m                  A             E
Watch the sky change to a darkened blue
  F#m                   A         E
I can't think of another thing to do
    F#m             A                 E 
And every song just makes me think of you
            Bm           
Because the singers sounds as if she was longing,
       D
As if she was longing, too


A
Seven little numbers
       E
Baby, they could be a start
F#m
Seven little numbers
       D
Baby, I know yours by heart
A
Seven little numbers
      E
Baby they could make a change
F#m
Seven little numbers
                  D
Make a fire out of this flame



F#m       A         E                                   F#m
    Woo-oah, oh-oh, all the pretty things that we could be
          A           E                          F#m
    Woo-oah, oh-oh, I feel you in every heart beat
          A             E                                        Bm
    Woo-oah, oh-oh, were you ever in a dream that could come true
              D                  F#m                  
These numbers could be lucky for you
