The SlipPredicting The Raintranscribed by: kostai can tell you that the guitar tuning is C-G-C-G-C-E (low to high,thanks brad!) with a capo on the 2nd fret so that it is in the key of D.basically once you are in that tuning it seems easy to play with mostlyopen strings and a few notes in the bass, but it's possible that it'smore complicated than that.if you want to play it in regular tuning, an easy way is to play D,strike the low E string, then the G in the bass, while still playing D.that goes for the verse. the part about "your paper umbrella..." youplay a D, but with a Bb in the bass and no F# on the high E. that chordthen goes to G. the chorus seems to be something like D (again) with thebass switching from B to G...You can see how this could be a lot easier in an open tuning, so give ita shot both ways and see what works best for you.
