Title: Rain Artist: The Beatles Composer: John Lennon/Paul McCartney Album: Past Masters Vol. 2 (1988) Year: 1966 As nobody had yet tabbed this song, I decided to do it myself. It's pretty easy and uses only the notes from the chords, so you just have to switch the standard bar chords and use the right hand to play the melody on them.

You can end Verse 4 with a G and then wait a bit until you continue with the backwards part. If you play to the record, you should watch out for the end of Verse 2, 'cos there the Beatles hold the last note for a moment as I marked it (~) and then go into the bridge. The rest should be easy, and especially Verse 3&4 leave a bit room for a little improvisation. For corrections mail me at KiRoK_D2@web.de KiRoK
