DO DOsus DO DOsus
Just outside my window I hear the late September dogs
DO DOsus DO DOsus
and I understand their warning, I understand their song
DO DOsus DO DOsus
Since you left, I feel a change in the air
DO DOsus DO DOsus
and night after night, I'm searching for mercy everywhere
[prechorus]:
DO DOsus
so I wake in the street and I call out your name
DO FA(strum)
and I shout to the sky please,
[chorus]: (strumming)
LAm SOL
come on let it rain, let it rain down on me
FA SOL
let the rain touch my hands let the rain set me free
[pattern1] C Csus C Csus
let it rain down on me
DO DOsus DO DOsus
silence is the steel that pierces and cuts me to the bone
in dreams the hand that touches you is mine, and mine alone
DO DOsus
cruel is the light, is the morning shining down on me
DO DOsus
hours with the devil to understand just what you need
[pre-chorus], 2nd line "..rain fill my eyes.."
chorus
[bass solo]
[pattern1]
DO DOsus DO DOsus
Just inside the distance, I hear the late September dogs
I so I beg for sleep, the child who walked before she crawled
DO DOsus DO DOsus
damn my soul that remembers and clutches to this pain
DO FA strum
the spear in your side is me come on let it ...
chorus
LAm SOL
oh ho ho let it rain, let the rain fill my eyes
FA SOL
I don't wanna see, no, let it rain down on me
[pattern1] C Csus C Csus
let it rain down on me oooh hooo
[outro]:
C Csus [pattern1] to fade
Fingering:
Alternative fingering for C and Csus :
DO DOsus
|_|_1_1_1_1 10th |_|_1_1_1_1 10th fret
3 3 3 3 3 3
4 4 4
If the C,Csus at the 10th fret is too trebly or hard on the fingers, it
also works playing C,Csus at the nut (or possibly C,F {bracketed}) like
this:
// C | x_____o___o
e-||-----------0----------|---------0--------|--- |_|_|_|_1_|
B-||.-------------(1)-----|------------1-----|--- |_|_|_|_|_|
G-||.-----------------(0)-|---------------0--|--- |_3_4_|_|_|
D-||----------------------|------------------|--- |_|_|_|_|_|
A-||---3----3-------------|--3----3----------|---
Csus or {F} \\ x_____o____
e--------------1----------|---------1---------||- |_|_|_|_1_1
B-----------------(1)-----|------------1-----.||- |_|_|_|_|_|
G---------------------(0)-|---------------0--.||- |_3_4_|_|_|
D-----{3}--{3}------------|-{3}--{3}----------||- |_|_|_|_|_|
A------3----3-------------|--3----3-----------||-
/
Arrangement:
If you don't have loads of bass guitar in the back, it might be better to
strum C,Csus or even C,F at the prechorus, rather than continuing picking
pattern 1.
