Henry Jamison - The rains

This is a guide on how to play the rains like henry jamison plays it live, such as in this performance: https://youtu.be/yE-Sk04n1zc During the chorus, the song has quite a complex and weird time signature so playing along might feel awkward. I suggest using the chord progression as guideline and playing your own time signature. Tuning: Standard Capo 6th fret --Verse 1-- C* F pattern E------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- B------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- G----------0-------------------0----------0-----0------------------------------------------- D------0h2------2-----0------------3---2-----0--------0----------0-------0------------------ A---3-------------2--------------------------------------3----2------0---------------------- E--------------------------1---------1-------1-----1-------1-------------------------------- Em F/D Em F/D E----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- B------0--------------------------------------------------0------------------------------------------- G----------0--------------0---------------0-----------------0----------------------------------------- D-------------2---2------------0------0h2---2-------------------2---2----------0------------0--------- A---------------2----------------0h3------------------------------2----------------3------------3----- E---0-------------------1----------------------------0---------------------1------------1------------- --Chorus-- Am G/C Fmaj7 x2 E-------0---------------0-------------0--------------------0--------------0------------------0-------------- B----------1---------0h1----1------------1------------0h1------1-------------1----------0h1------1---------- G-------------2---2--------------------------0-----0----------------------------2----2---------------------- D----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A---0-----------0------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- E---------------------------------3-------------3---------------------1------------1------------------------ --Standing in the doorway-- Bass plays Em F Em F but the guitar seems constant (F).
