"Pitter Patter" (Wilson/Love/Jardine)
From "M.I.U. Album" (1978)
While this song in the Brian-ish key of Eb,
the rhythm guitar does shuffle figures consistent
The slide and other lead parts are probably the same.

[Verse]
E Em It looks like rain...and it's been comin' on for hours, E Em it looks like rain...I hear the rumble of thunder showers. A Em Pretty soon the rain will play its sweet refrain, while we listen from inside. A F#7 B7 And until it stops, we'll hear the drips and drops from beside the fireside.
[Chorus]
E A B7 So let it rain, yeah and we'll be happy when it starts, E A B7 cos when it rains, the ways of love rise in my heart.
[middle 8]
C#m F#7 We won't be sad when there's a storm, C#m F#7 N.C. an' we can be glad cos we can keep warm, yeah, yeah.
[Chorus]
E
And listen to the rain... A B7(pitter-patter, pitter-patter, of the rain)
E B7 E goin' pitter-patter pitter-patter, of the rain, B7 E B7 E B7 goin' pitter-patter pitter-patter pitter-patter pitter-patter ooh.
[verse]
E Em A rain-swept plain, soon after springtime rains blow over, E Em will sprout new grain, and miles of fresh green fields of clover. A Em Winter and its cold, soon will lose its hold, with the changes spring will bring. A F#7 B7 Sun comes pouring down, warming up the ground, bringing new life with the spring.
[Chorus]
E A B7 So let it rain, and we'll be happy when it starts, E A B7 cos when it rains, the ways of love rise in my heart.
[Middle 8]
C#m F#7 and like the rising tides, love is growning stronger, C#m F#7 let's ride out the storm just a little bit longer,yeah.
[Chorus]
E
And listen to the rain... A B7(pitter-patter, pitter-patter, of the rain)
E B7 E goin' pitter-patter pitter-patter, of the rain, B7 E B7 E B7 goin' pitter-patter pitter-patter pitter-patter pitter-patter ooh. N.C. E And listen to the rain... A B7
