No Rain

Words & Music:

Blind Melon

 

There is a two guitar & bass transcription of this in Guitar World.

 

E  D  [4x]

 

CHORUS 1:

E                         D

All I can say is that my life is pretty plain.

  A                         G      E      E7

I like watchin' the puddles gather rain.

    E                    D

And all I can do is just pour some tea for two,

    A                         G         E     E7

And speak my point of view but it's not sane, it's not sane.

 

E          D           E           D

I just want someone to say to me no, oh.

E            D                    E     D

I'll always be there when you wake, yeah...

 

You know I'd like to keep my cheeks dry today.

So, stay with me and I'll have it made.

 

CHORUS 2:

And I don't understand why I sleep all day.

And I start to complain that there's no rain.

And all I can do is read a book to stay awake.

It rips my life away, but it's a great escape, escape, escape, escape.

 

INSTRUMENTAL OVER AN E TO D VAMP:

 

All I can say is that my life is pretty plain.

You don't like my point of view, you think that I'm insane.

Its not sane, it's not sane.

I just want someone to say to me no, oh.

I'll always be there when you wake, yeah.

You know I'd like to keep my cheeks dry today.

So, stay with me and I'll have it made.

 

OUTRO:  E to D vamp
