Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
I  am the rain  held  in disdain, lotions  and  potions just add  to my fame
When  I’m not in Spain, I  fall on  the plain
The  truth is I’m ruthless  I can’t be  contained
I’m the  rain
My  friend the wind,  with breath he  is twinned
Blow  high or low high  tornadoes to  spin
My  mother the cloud, in  widows black  shroud
Gives  birth to the earth  before fields can  be ploughed
Up  in the sky  we’ve demand to  supply
I  am necessity,  base  of the recipe
I’m  the rain
My  cousin the snow lays  blankets below
States  that her flakes  are just threads to  be sewn
My  rival the sun,  it ripens  the plum
Is  feared and revealed  it gives sight to  the gun
Up  in the sky we’ve  demands  to supply
I  am necessity,  base  of the recipe
Up  in the sky we’ve  demands to supply
I  am necessity,  base  of the recipe
I, I’m  the  rain,  I’m the rain
 (faster)
Oh,  oh,  oh, oh
 .
 (slower)
I  am the rain,  who’s held  in disdain
The  truth is I’m ruthless  I can’t be contained
