A black cat moans, when he’s burning with the fever
A stray dog howls, when he’s lonely in the night
A woman goes crazy, with the thought of retribution

But a man starts weeping, when he’s sick and tired of life.

This represents the main riff in the tune. It’s played with
mondo-fuzz. All notes are lightly damped except the D
and C# on the 5th string, which are pinched to the point
of squealing. At this point its repeated six times: twice
alone and four times under the lyrics.

I keep on dreaming the dreams of tomorrow
Feel I’m wasting my time lighting candles in the wind
Always taking my chances on the promise of the future
But a heart full of sorrow beats a lonely tapestry

when you’re crying in the rain
crying in the rain
Well, that’s all i care to do. There is a different rythym
under the lead break, and the leads and fills themselves.
But life is for learning.
