G Em
I never meant to cause you any sorrow
D C
I never meant to cause you any pain
G Em
I only wanted one time to see you laughing
D G
I only wanted to see you laughing in the purple rain …
[Chorus]

Purple rain, purple rain

Purple rain, purple rain

Purple rain, purple rain

I only wanted to see you bathing in the purple rain

G Em
I never wanted to be your weekend lover
D C
I only wanted to be some kind of friend

Baby, I could never steal you from another
D G
And it's such a shame that our friendship will ever had to end …
[Chorus]

Purple rain, purple rain
G
Purple rain, purple rain

G Em
Honey, I know, I know, I know times are changing
D C
And it's time we all reach out for something new that means you, too
G Em
And you say you want a leader, but you can't seem to make up your mind
D G
I think you better close it, let me guide you to the purple rain …
[Chorus]
C
Purple rain, purple rain
G
Oh, purple rain, purple rain
D
Oh, purple rain, purple rain
G
I only wanted to see you bathing in the purple rain
