Listen to the recording for rhythm and strumming. Lanegan kind of speaks some of the
words and holds things for as long as he wants, so you can follow his style or add your own.
VERSE 1:
[G]The heart will [F]pound until the [C]breath is gone
[G]You know what I [F]love so, put me [C]on
[G]Something has b[F]adly gone [C]wrong with me
[G]Livin's not [F]hard, it's just not [C]easy
[F]Always keepin' the dogs off
CHORUS:
[C]Down like the [D]rain, d[C]own like the r[D]ain
[C]Comin' down like the [D]rain, comin' d[G]own
[G]Oh I [C]wanna be [D]there, by your [G]side
Cause this f[C]eels like dyin' baby
[G]Let me stay aro[D]und, let me stay ar[G]ound
VERSE 2 (same as Verse 1):
You take my heart, and my breath is gone
You know what I love so, put me on
Feel a little light-headed, you know I'd have to be
Believin' ain't hard, it's just not easy
Stayin' blind to the obvious
CHORUS (same as before):
Down like the rain, down like the rain
Comin' down like the rain, comin' down
Oh I wanna be there, by your side
Cause this feels like dyin' baby
Let me stay around, let me stay around
Repeat Chorus, then play through Chorus chords as many times as you like until the end.
There's a cool solo on the recording, but they're also decent chords to just improvise over.
This is my first set of chords, hope you enjoy!
