Tom: E
Repeat 3x
A black cat moans, when he's burning with the fever
A stray dog howls, when he's lonely in the night
A woman goes crazy, with the thought of retribution
But a man starts weeping, when he's sick and tired of life.
Repeat 2x
This represents the main riff in the tune. It's played with
mondo-fuzz. All notes are lightly damped except the
D
and
Db on the 5th string, which are pinched to the point
of squealing. At this point its repeated six times: twice
alone and four times under the lyrics.
I keep on dreaming the dreams of tomorrow
Feel I'm wasting my time lighting candles in the wind
Always taking my chances on the promise of the future
But a heart full of sorrow beats a lonely tapestry
The sun is shining
(play 'main riff' one more time)
But its raining in my heart
No one understands the heartache, no one feels the pain
No one ever sees the tears when you're crying in the rain
Repeat 2x
when you're crying in the rain
crying in the rain
