My Thoughts On The Song/Chart: One of CCR's all time best classics, being a soft country rock tune from their 1970 album 'Pendulum" which pretty much signaled the end of the band. This song is pretty easy on everything. Pro Keys doesn't feature much but TBH Bass is easy anyways.

Song Facts:
"Have You Ever Seen the Rain" is a song by American rock band Creedence Clearwater Revival, written by John Fogerty and released as a single in 1971 from the album Pendulum (1970).
The song charted highest in Canada, reaching number one on the RPM 100 national singles chart in March 1971.
In the U.S., in the same year it peaked at number eight on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart.[4] On the Cash Box pop chart, it peaked at number three. In the UK, it reached number 36. It was the group's eighth gold-selling single.
In March 2023, the song surpassed one billion streams on Spotify.
Cash Box called the song "as close to a ballad as anything from CCR."
In a 2020 interview with American Songwriter, Fogerty stated that the line "Have you ever seen the rain, coming down on a sunny day?" was inspired by the band's feelings of unease and depression at the height of their fame and commercial success. The band would ultimately split in October 1972, following the release of the album Mardi Gras.
In a literal sense, the song describes a sunshower, such as in the lyric "It'll rain a sunny day" and the chorus, "Have you ever seen the rain, comin' down on a sunny day?" These events are particularly common in the Deep South due to localized atmospheric wind shear effects.
