Don't get scared when you look at the chords ... they're not as tough as the
look :-)

Outro : | Em - - - | Em - - - |Em - - - | Em -> Upstroke |
Comments :
If you play this song on a guitar only, then you should better play a standard
G7 instead of the G7/D chord, because it's easier to play and sounds better this
way, even though in the original recording the bass is playing a D at this part.
Additional Tabulature :
Even though this is a piano song, you can do a nice fingerpicking on the guitar
on it to make it sound like the original recording. This is what I figured out
to make it sound the best for me :
The Em parts can be played like the following. The piano melody is built into
this picking :
e |-0-------0-3-0---5-------7-------|-0-------0-3-0---5-------3-------|
b |-0---0---0-0-0---0---0---0---0---|-0---0---0-0-0---0---0---0---0---|
g |---------------------------------|---------------------------------|
D |---------------------------------|---------------------------------|
A |---------------------------------|---------------------------------|
E |-0---------------0---------------|-0---------------0---------------|
Em Em
Play this two times during the Intro and repeat it through the Fills and the
Outro.
The fingerpicking through the rest of the song could be something like this :
e |-----------------0---------------|---------------------------------|
b |-0-------0-------0-------0-------|-0-------0-------4-------4-------|
g |-0-------0---------------0-------|-2-------2-------4-------4-------|
D |-----2-------2---------------2---|-----1---------------4-----------|
A |-3-------------------3-----------|-2-----------2---2-----------2---|
E |---------------------------------|---------------------------------|
Cmaj7 B7 B
Rain on the roof Time on my hands
Continue this type of fingerpicking throughout the rest of the song.
