george - Rain
From the album 'Polyserena'

Transcribed by Wes Chia - kingstudwes@h... (ICQ 52478419)

Firstly, I play the Edim7 chord (I think it's called an Edim7... I
dunno. Someone smart correct me... Tamara? ;P ) is played something
like this. Fiddle around and see if you can find some nicer way:

e :------
B :------
G :--3---
D :--2---
A :--1---
E :------

And secondly, it might go without saying, but play that cool intro
riff in the "Aaaaaaaaahhhh" bits in the chorus. You know what I
mean right? you can HEAR it.


Email me for comments/criticisms.

Cheers!

Save me from the judgement of a fool,

Save me from the judge's writing tool,

Releasing now...

An aptitude for anything at all

No need for time to ponder on the maybes

Now happiness will one day really fall,

On you like rays of gold

Em
Are you walking steady since you took the fall

A
I know it must be hard to be strong

And still move on

F# Bm
Believing thoughts that tear you up inside

So let it go and flow down
