Some of the chords and stuff might not be quite=20 right, but they are close enough for me. The beginning and end is=20 basically a D9 chord with Jimi soloing in a D pentatonic scale. By the way, =8CStill Raining, Still Dreaming=B9 is just the rest of this song and it is also a D9 chord except for a couple variations. Make sure to bust out the WAH for this one! ALSO: NOTE THAT THIS SONG IS IN STANDARD =8CE=B9 TUNING, NOT =8CEb=B9 ----------------------------- Intro: [solo in D pentatonic] D9 Hey man, take a look out the window and see what's happening Hey man, it's raining It's rainin' outside man Aw, don't worry about that Everything's gonna be everything We'll get into somethin' real nice you know Sit back and groove on a rainy day Yeah Yeah I see what you mean brother, lay back and groove.
