Ok you should be able to piece that together.
Here are the lyrics for it, just add drums
and a bass and you'll sound like Paul himself!
Lyrics
-------
Gentle rain
Here it comes again
Rattling round your window, threatening pain
Coming on like a friend, but you know better than
Yesterday that held you by a different hand
Hail and stone
And all thats gone
When everything that passes , cuts to the bone
Turning like a wheel dragging a heavy stone
A weight that ties you down that you will never own
Strange to see, a paper smile on thee
When once you moved and lit the room
For us all to be
Now if I could be the sun I'd shine in your life
If I could be the rain, I'd rain from your eyes
And I'd wash away the emptiness you feel inside
Solo
-----
Now, last but not least, the solo. For backing chords muck
around with verse chords.
play quickly(bend the 10 down to the 8)
