Verse 1:
Am
Bus stop, wet day, she's there, I say
Please share my umbrella
Bus stop, bus goes, she stays, love grows
G
Under my umbrella
C G Am/E
All that summer we enjoyed it
Dm Em
Wind and rain and shine
Am
That umbrella, we employed it
Em Am
By August, she was mine
Chorus:
C/G B7 Em /D C
Every morning I would see her waiting at the stop
Am/C B7 Em /D /C /B
Sometimes she'd shopped and she would show me what she bought
C/G B7 Em /D C
Other people stared as if we were both quite insane
Am/C B7 Em
Someday my name and hers are going to be the same
Verse 2:
That's the way the whole thing started
Silly but it's true
Thinkin' of a sweet romance
Beginning in a queue
Came the sun the ice was melting
No more sheltering now
Nice to think that that umbrella
Led me to a vow
Instrumental break:
guitar I (12-string, perhaps octave guitar):
Am
