Covered In Rain


Covered In Rain Words and Music by John Mayer Transcribed by: Gabe AIM: JMFan70 Email: Supraslick15_14@Juno.com This is a super easy song to play if you dont count all the improv solos he does. He never plays the same solo for this song twice. The best I can do is give you the soloing he uses. Depending on what version of this song you have I tabbed out the solo. I have the live version. So thats what I used. Key: x -Muted String b -Bend r -Release ~ -Let Ring / -Slide Up \ -Slide Down h -Hammer On p -Pull Off Intro Verse and Chorus e------------------| b-3--10--11--------| g-0---x---x--------| d-3--10--10--------| a-1---8---8--------| E-1---8---8--------| This is the whole song but the pattern changed in each part a bit, so just listen for the change.

Soloing Scale e-------------------------------3-6------| b--------------------------3-6-----------| g-------------------3-5-6----------------| d--------------3-5-----------------------| a-------3-4-5----------------------------| e--3-6-----------------------------------| This is the G Minor Pentatonic scale he uses to play his Covered In Rain solos, so you improv off of that. e---------------------------------------8-9-10-| b---------------------------------8-11---------| g---------------------------7-10---------------| d-----------------8-10-11----------------------| a-----------8-10-------------------------------| e--8-9-10--------------------------------------| He might be using this scale also but either one will work for ya!
