Title: Rain
Artist: The Beatles
Composer: John Lennon/Paul McCartney
Album: Past Masters Vol. 2 (1988)
Year: 1966
As nobody had yet tabbed this song, I decided to do it myself. It's pretty easy and uses only the notes from the chords, so you just have to switch the standard bar chords and use the right hand to play the melody on them.

The running order is as follows:
Intro
Verse 1
Verse 2
Bridge
Verse 3
Bridge
Verse 4
Backwards Part.
You can end Verse 4 with a G and then wait a bit until you continue with the backwards part.
If you play to the record, you should watch out for the end of Verse 2, 'cos there the Beatles hold the last note for a moment as I marked it (~) and then go into the bridge. The rest should be easy, and especially Verse 3&4 leave a bit room for a little improvisation.
