ah.... I see. sorry for this. I'm not a regular here! If you want the written music, let me know. Here's my final attempt to get it right. Fingers crossed...

WEATHER THE STORM
Ralph McTell

1. So you're finally over it now.
You thought you wouldn't make it,
But I knew you would somehow.
I guess I knew you could make it in the end;
It's so good just havin' you round again my old friend.

Chorus

And you weather the storm,
And you weather the storm.
You weather the storm, and you come up
Smiling in the end.

(Middle Eight)

Into every life, well a little rain must fall,
And for sure it poured down on you.
An umbrella's no good in a hurricane,
But just like the sun in the end you come shining through.

2. So, you're over all the disappointments now.
You thought you wouldn't make it,
But I knew you would somehow.
Maybe it still hurts to think of bad times that you spent,
But it's over, and you're back again my friend.

CHORUS

3. (Middle Eight) CHORUS

4. So, you see, it's getting better now;
You look a little battered,
But we all do anyhow.
When the break is mended it can be stronger than before.
Don't go round butting doors or punching walls.

CHORUS
