No Rain - Blind Melon

Tabbed by Jim Huskey (mr_pink_42@hotmail.com)

here's what my tab means... pretty standard notation I
think but maybe not...
/ - slide up
\ - slide down
^ - bend up
~ - vibrato

I think thats all you use in this song.  Its a really easy song when
you break it down. Its all in standard tuning with a lead electric and
a rhythm acoustic.  I'm tabbing out the electric because that's much
more fun!

Intro (Clean tone)
              E                E               E
|-------------------------------------------------|
|--10--10/12--------10--10/12--------10--10/12----|
|-------------9~---------------9~--------------9~-|
|-------------------------------------------------|
|-------------------------------------------------|
|-------------------------------------------------|

Then it goes to this... the bass kicks in here too.

   E           D              E
|--------------------I-------------|
|-----10-9-10--------I-------------|
|--9-----------11--9-I-7-9---7-9~--|
|--------------------I-------------|
|--------------------I-------------|
|--------------------I-------------|

This part repeats 2 and a half times.  It stops where its marked on
the tab and goes to this little fill.

|--9-10-9------|
|---------10---|
|------------9-|
|--------------|
|--------------|
|--------------|

Then just repeat the riffs above until the solo.  I'm too lazy to tab
the solo but it sounds like its just a bunch of short scalar runs
around the 12th and 15th frets.


you play the solo... then another chorus, then the solo again, and the
opening riff and fade out.
