1. [C baritone chordC] I never meant to cause you any [Am7 baritone chordAm7] sorrow.
[G baritone chordG] I never meant to cause you any [F baritone chordF] pain. [F4 baritone chordF4]
[C baritone chordC] I only want one time see you [Am7 baritone chordAm7] laughing.
I [G baritone chordG] only want to see you laughing
in the purple [C baritone chordC] rain.

R. Purple rain, purple [F baritone chordF] rain. [F4 baritone chordF4]
[F baritone chordF] Purple rain, purple [C baritone chordC] rain.
[Am7 baritone chordAm7] Purple rain, purple [G baritone chordG] rain.
I only want to see you baby
In the purple [C baritone chordC] rain.

2. I never wanted to be your weekend [C baritone chordC] lover. [Am7 baritone chordAm7]
[G baritone chordG] I only wanted to be some kind of [F baritone chordF]friend, hey. [F4 baritone chordF4]
[C baritone chordC] Baby I could never steal you from an[Am7 baritone chordAm7]other.
[G baritone chordG] Such a shame our friendship has to [C baritone chordC] end.

[F baritone chordF] Purple rain, purple [C baritone chordC] rain.
[Am7 baritone chordAm7] Purple rain, purple [G baritone chordG] rain.
I only want to see you underneath
In the purple [C baritone chordC] rain.

[G baritone chordG] It's time we all reach out for something [F baritone chordF] new.
That means you too. [F4 baritone chordF4]
[C baritone chordC] You say you want a leader,
[Am7 baritone chordAm7] But you can't seem to make up your mind.
I think you better close [G baritone chordG] it.
And let me guide you to the purple [C baritone chordC] rain.

R. Purple rain, purple [F baritone chordF] rain. [F4 baritone chordF4]
[F baritone chordF] Purple rain, purple [C baritone chordC] rain.
(Whew! If you know what I'm singin' about,
Help me and [Am7 baritone chordAm7] come on raise your hand.)
[Am7 baritone chordAm7] Purple rain, purple [G baritone chordG] rain.
I only want to see you, I only want to see you
In the purple [C baritone chordC] rain.

About this song: Purple Rain

Purple Rain is a power ballad by Prince and the The Revolution. It was recorded live at the Minneapolis club First Avenue in 1983 (with the strings overdubbed later in the studio) and was his third US single (second in UK) and title track from the 1984 album of the same name, which in turn was the soundtrack album for the 1984 film of the same name. The song is an emotional combination of rock and roll, pop and gospel music. It is widely considered Prince's signature song.
