there are two ways you can play this song. the easy way (with a capo)
or the hard way.
first comes the easy way:
Capo on the Third Fret:
then play these chords and notes as you would if the third fret were the open fret:
D: XX0232
G: 320033
A: X02220
The hard way:
replace those chords with the real chords that they are:
D (its really an F) : XX3565
G (its really an A#): X1333x
A (its really a C) : X3555x
i recommend you get a capo.

D G
the rain fell all night and it kept me awake
D
it was still falling by morning.
G
it was hard to take.
A
and you were sleeping on the floor,
G
breathing free and even,.
D
if i ever want to drive myself insane,
G A
all i have to do is watch you breathing
D G
and at 5 AM, i turned the radio on,
D G A
and an old mans voice sang a short sweet song,
D G
and then the static roared again hungry for blood
D
i heard the rain falling from the rain spout
G
down down into the sweet wet mud,
A
and you punched out all the windows
G
and the wind began to wail
D
and you gathered your hair behind your head
G A
like god was gonna catch you by the pony tail,
D
and then the old voice crackled through the static.
G
and i felt young and alive
D
and the hair stood up on the back of my neck
G A D
we were rising from the grave, yeah yeah.
