I play this with no capo, but you can play it however it fits your voice. for the intro you can just play a D
Cadd9 and G twice if the hammer-ons are too much, Enjoy
[Verse 1]
D Cadd9 D Cadd9 G Like April Showers on the slick cement D Cadd9 D Cadd9 G When I consider how our light is spent D Cadd9 D Cadd9 G Keeping the candles inside the cathedral D Cadd9 D Hold on tight, don't go into the night Cadd9 G So full of evil
Cadd9 G Cadd9 G D
[Chorus]

[Verse 2]

D Cadd9 D Cadd9 Like April Showers on the slick cement D Cadd9 D Cadd9 And the roads, once straight, have now become so bent D Cadd9 D Cadd9 Weaving through the trees of vain security D Cadd9 D Rounding round the hardest rocks of hard morality
Cadd9 G D (This time the Cadd9 G after verse is played only once)

Em Am7 And the sacred cows Em Am7 Feed on the green Em Am7 While the least of these Em D Are dying on the streets
And they're crying...
