Subject: Spinal.Tap -- RainyDaySun.crd

This is a classic Spinal Tap song recorded in their heyday in the '60s.
It is such a masterpiece that I decided to type it in. It is taken from
a songbook for Break Like The Wind. Sorry, no lyrics; I'm doing this from
memory. This is a technical masterpiece from guitarists Nigel Tufnel and
David St. Hubbins, the two major songwriters.

Every four notes is one measure; it is in 4/4 time.

intro: (two measures)
E7  (hold)          E7 (hold)

verse 1:
rhythm: (all half notes)
