Intro: 
 
D       Em7    A        Em7        D      A7 
Life is not a highway strewn with flowers; 
 D       Em7      A      Em7       D 
Still it holds a goodly share of bliss; 
F#m      Bm        F#m    F°    F#m       B7 
When the sun gives way to April showers, 
 A         Bm7(b5)       E7       Bm7(b5)    A  Em7  D9   A7 
Here's the point that you should never miss.  
 
Melody: 
 A    Am7   A    A7       A   E7   A    D9  
Though A - pril showers, may come your way,  
 A    Am7   A   A7       A    E7   A   D9 
They bring the flowers, that bloom in May,  
D  Em7 E7   B7          C°    Em      B+ 
So if it's raining, have no regrets,  
    Em7    E7     Bm7(b5)   E7       C° 
Because it isn't raining rain, you know,

It's raining vi - o - lets.  
A    Am7  A  A7          A    E7  A   D9 
And when you see clouds, up - on the hills,  
A    Am7  A   B7             C°        Em 
You soon will see crowds, of daf - fo - dils.  
    B+      G      G/F#   Em7       G° 
So keep on looking for a bluebird,  
     D     Bm7      B7 
And listen for his song  
    G    E7     A7      Em7 A7    D 
Whenever April showers come a - long.
