  RAINY DAY, DREAM AWAY
  
  The Jimi Hendrix Experience
  
  
  =46rom: justmiller@mindspring.com
  
  This is a pretty easy song, actually, but it was hard for me to get=20
  some of the chords right because most of them are 9ths making the roots
  slightly ambiguous.  Some of the chords and stuff might not be quite=20
  right, but they are close enough for me.  The beginning and end is=20
  basically a D9 chord with Jimi soloing in a D pentatonic scale.  By the
  way, =8CStill Raining, Still Dreaming=B9 is just the rest of this song
  and it is also a D9 chord except for a couple variations.  Make sure to
  bust out the WAH for this one!
  
  ALSO:
  
  NOTE THAT THIS SONG IS IN STANDARD =8CE=B9 TUNING, NOT =8CEb=B9

   Intro:  [solo in D pentatonic]
  
  D9
  Hey man, take a look out the window and see what's happening
  Hey man, it's raining
  It's rainin' outside man
  Aw, don't worry about that
  Everything's gonna be everything
  We'll get into somethin' real nice you know
  Sit back and groove on a rainy day
  Yeah
  Yeah I see what you mean brother, lay back and groove.
  
   Little linking phrase:  [Time - 2:09]
