Ok well this album has been one that I can return to whenever I want. And I saw the bass
on here for this song and decided to take care of it from what was there. So thanks to
guy. I'll put both the Capo and Non-Capoed versions down.

Verse;

Oh my God, this hurts like hell
I had that dream again where
I was lost for good in outer space
Tell me, doctor, how to shake
A waking nightmare that is only
Worse when I am sleeping
Kill the messenger
I swear it's not me
It's just someone I used to know
And get to church cause you're a good girl
And he never told you that
And all I need from you
Could be the thing that
Leaves us both up here forever
I'm gonna send a little rain your way
(Hold)
I'm gonna send a little rain...
It's not so easy, caving in
I walked by your apartment twice today
While you were gone at work
And all the colors got so down (Soaked In?)
It's not as cold out here
But come quickly, I am losing feeling
Kill the messenger
I swear it's not me
It's just someone I used to know
And get to church cause you're a good girl
And he never told you that
And all I need from you
Could be the thing that
Leaves us both up here forever
I'm gonna send a little rain your way
I'm gonna send a little rain, send a little rain
I'm gonna send a little rain...
To pour down on you
Rain that makes the flowers bloom
Rain to leave you all alone
That keeps eyelashes falling
And wishes washed away
Kill the messenger
I swear it's not me
It's just someone I used to know
And get to church cause you're a good girl
And he never told you that
And all I need from you
Could be the thing that
Leaves us both up here forever
I'm gonna send a little rain your way
I'm gonna send a little rain...
I'm gonna send a little rain your way

Ok that's it, i'm lazy just transpose it into the rest of the song like I did with the
so that's it.
Isn't it lovely how simple songs become on guitar? You can play this acoustically too,
how I do it. Capo sounds better with Piano though in my opinion.
Any thoughts or anything, just hit me a line on my UGSpace. Cheers.
