LIKE RAIN - Grin
                                    
(Nils Lofgren)
                                    
 Grin [1971]

Tabbed by: varannion


Tuning: standard


Like Rain is one of Nils’ earliest 
compositions and one of his most 
enduring. It has
always featured in his live set 
dating back to his time with Grin 
and continues to do
so to this day, some fifty years 
after the song was first released. 
Unusually for a
Lofgren composition, it does not 
feature a guitar solo, but is a 
beautiful song
nonetheless. To emphasise the 
changes more emphatically, the Esus4
 chord can be
replaced by A and Dsus4 by G.
