Song Title: "April Showers"
Group: Caedmon's Call
Album: "Just Don't Want Coffee"
This is probably the simplest song that Caedmon's Call plays, but it sounds great! Both
Derek and Cliff play, though both the same part. In concert, Cliff plays a straight chord
progression, while Derek is doing the fancy hammer-ons and such you hear, as well as the
solo. This song, btw, is in G. Anyway, here it is:

D Cadd9 D Cadd9 G
Like April Showers on the slick cement
D Cadd9 D Cadd9 G
When I consider how our light is spent
D Cadd9 D Cadd9 G
Keeping the candles inside the cathedral
D Cadd9 D
Hold on tight, Don't go into the night
Cadd9 G
So full of evil
Cadd9 G Cadd9 G D


Chorus:
-------
G D
Rain rain don't go away
Cadd9 Cadd9
We need you this dry and dusty day
G D
Rain rain don't go away
Cadd9 Cadd9
Though some may say please go away

I tried to break it up into sections where you can hear a "pause". listen to the cd, you'll
see what i mean.
NOTE on Solo: 2 things about this. 1st, it is my interpretation, so the fingerings
might be different than Derek's, but it sounds the exact same, i checked several times.
2nd, i play solo guitar, so i have added come chord inversions where usually cliff would
play, to fill it out. so sometimes there is _more_ here than on the CD. as always, mail
me if you are lost.
