weatherman C G/B Am G/B I make a really bad umbrella just like I said I would C G/B Am Em I'm full of holes and I do not stay put C G/B Am G/B So don't think I'm keeping you dry it just is not raining yet C G/B Am D/F# When the clouds come to our sky we'll both be soaking wet C G/B Am G/B C G/B Am Em I make a really bad clothesline so don't pin your hopes on me Do not try to tie me tree to tree (etcetera) I make such a bad clothesline I would not pin nothing on me ĪCause when you come back for it you might find it's gone in the breeze G D/F# Em C G D/F# C And I don't know I don't know I don't know what else you expected me to say G D/F# Em C G D/F# C Because I know you know I told you long ago that it would always be this way I'm not a good lighthouse cause I don't always shine I make a safe shore so hard to find I make a really bad anchor just like I told you so Cause I tend to get dragged and then I tend to let go Em C G D/F# And I make a really good lover when there's a clear path to the door Em C D Make a really good listener when I can't talk no more Em C G D/F# I make a really good friend when there's an end in sight Em C C I make a really good wrong to your right You say I live like I'm on ice skates going down a frozen hill I say baby it has always been like that maybe it always will And when I said that to you I did not mean to cause you pain But you can go ahead and blame me like you blame the weatherman for the rain And I don't know what else you expected me to say Because I know you know I told you long ago that it would always be this way I make a really bad umbrella just like I said I would I'm full of holes and I do not stay put So don't think I'm keeping you dry it just is not raining yet When the clouds come to our sky we'll both be soaking wet lyrics & music by kris delmhorst © 1998 big bean music/ASCAP
