Intro: [A verse with no words, Adrian solos in E major and its related modes with a slide. He also puts lots of slide licks in when there are no words.] Verse 1: (Verse Riff) Stare at the window pane, (Verse Riff with alternate ending) Stare at the rain that's falling. Chorus: (Chorus Riff 1a) She waits in the air, Chrous Riff 1b) Matte Kudasai. (Chorus Riff 1a) She sleeps in a chair, (Chrous Riff 1c) (Chorus Riff 2a) In her sad America. (Chorus Riff 2b) [no lyrics] Verse 2: [same as Verse 1] Long, long is the night alone, Long, like the notes I'm sending.

I recommend doing stretching exercises before attempting it. I recommend using a thumb fret for the bass string, but if you can finger it some other way, go for it!)
