Thanks for listening....I'm outta here -Scott Hartig Hi, I was just screwing around with my guitar and I came up with an alternate intro to blind melon's "no rain" that's not in the archive. This one's a little more full and folky, if you like that sort of thing. Also, this is the first time I've tried to write in rhythm. bear with me here. The measures are kind of accurate; the spacing of the notes isn't.) kapo the scond fret. Notation is relative to the kapo (a 3 is really a 5 and such...)

Try something based on the other tabs posted here! The the verses and solo are pretty easy. Just play what the others have modified for a kapo (instead of E major play D major and such...) |
