The Commitments – I Cant Stand The Rain chords
Chords:
I Can't Stand the Rain - Ann Peebles - 1973 Composers: Bryant/Peebles/Miller Submitted by Greg B. NOTE: I'm submitting this under the Commitments, however I only have Ann Peebles' 1973 recording to work from. (she doesn't have her own tab section). The Commitment's version is pretty true to the original. After all the whole premise of the fairy tale group was to mimic the original soul masters. Intro: almost a reggae-like strumming pattern on F# @ 2nd position. do for first lyric linee|------------------------------------------------------------|B|------------------------------------------------------------|G|---------------------11--11------11-------------------------|D|--11---11---11---11----------11-----------------------------|A|--9----9----9----9-----------9------------------------------|E|------------------------------------------------------------|F# I can't stand the rain against my windowB F#Bringing back sweet memoriesF# Hey window pane do you rememberB F#How sweet it used to beEWhen we were togetherF#Everything was so grandA Now that we've partedAbm C#There's one sound that I just can't stand...F# F#I can't stand the rain against my windowB F#Bringing back sweet memoriesF#I can't stand the rain against my windowB F#'Cause he's not here with meEAlone with the pillowF#Where his head used to layAI know you've got some sweet memoriesAbm C#But like a window you ain't got nothing to say[Interlude - Horn Riff]Dbl-Stop approximation of Horn interlude F# E F# A Abm C#e|--------------------------------------------------------5---4-------|B|--7-7-9-11-11-9-7-7--5-5-7-9-9-7-5--7-7-9-11-11-9-7-----------------|G|--6-6-8-11-11-8-6-6--4-4-6-9-9-6-4--6-6-8-11-11-8-6--5/6------------|D|----------------------------------------------------------5/6-------|A|--------------------------------------------------------------------|E|--------------------------------------------------------------------|F# I can't stand the rain against my windowB F#Bringing back sweet memories, heyF# I can't stand the rain against my window, oh no noB F#'Cause he's not here with me, uhEAlone with the pillow uh uhF#Where his head used to lay, yeahAI know you've got some sweet memoriesAbm C#But like a window you ain't got nothing to say...(repeat lyric below to fade)F#Uh, uh, I can't stand the rain...BOohh !...
