[A] step:
 [Eb]  [Bb]  [F#]  [C#]  [Ab]  [Eb]

The intro of the song is D and Dsus4 with the

e-----2-3--2----           X 4
b---3---------3-
g-2-------------
d---------------
a---------------
e---------------

Then the first verse starts

                            (with intro riffx2 played over the top)

M[Em]aybe the rain[G]'s holding off,   [D]      [Dsus4]             [D]                [Dsus4]                       [D]

 [Em]           [G]                    [D]  [Dsus4]  [D]  [Dsus4]
 [D] (I'll just refer
Surely it knows, we're down here                   to this as
                                                   D riff now)

 [Em]              [G]
W[D]alking 'round barefoot lost

P[Em]retty soon these clouds have got to clear [A]

I[G] know it's a lot[D]           [A]

A[G]rousing thunder I onl[D]y ask it t[A]o stop

F[G]or a second so I [D]could coax [A]you to talk

  (There could be a very quick G in here, I'm not sure)

 [Em]  ^
 [D]

 [Em]              [G]
T[D]hink when we first layed eyes

 [Em]                         [G]
D[D]idn't know who you were and then I was one more passerby

 [Em]                       [G]
Y[D]ou were the girl in the entryway, thats all that I knew but

Y[Em]ou were still in school and I was [A]insecure

I[G] know it's a lot[D]      [A]

A[G]rousing thunder I [D]only ask it to stop [A]

F[G]or a second so I [D]could coax you to talk[A]

 [A]       [F#m]     [A]    [F#m]  [A]  [F#m]  [A]  [F#m]  [A]     [F#m]   [A]  [F#m]
 [D]
A[D]bout your dreams and orange soda tea leaves, tv,  more....more

(If you don't like all the changes above you can just strum the F
the whole way though til 'more' but it doesn't sound as good)

 [Em]                [G]
L[D]ooks like the rains holding off

 [Em]               [G]
M[D]ight as well take this slow

 [Em]                             [G]
Y[D]ou know sometimes when I hold you in silence I listen real close

T[Em]hen I hear you talking to my so[A]ul

W[G]ell I know it ain't half [D]      [A]

o[G]f this story I'm only[D] mean[A]ing to ask

 [G]                    [D]                   [A]
 [D]

 [D] riff etc
Just what would it take to coax you to laugh? To laugh,   To laugh To laugh

 [Em]   [G]
 [D]

 [Em]   [G]
 [D]

 [Em]   [G]
 [D]

Just play G over the following lines

What would it
What would it               D
What would it take you to laugh?

Repeat the above twice, then

I'm not too sure on the ending but I'll give it a go

B[G]a ba ba ba ba[Em] ba ba ba

B[G]a ba ba ba ba[Em] ba ba

N[G]a na na na na[Em] na na    [D]

Then play D (plus the riff a few times) till
the end.
