Song:The Weather
Artist:Built to Spill
Album:Ancient Melodies of the Future
This is a nice, easy song to play.There were a few parts I changed
a little bit.In the chorus I added the broken chords (it sounded
better when playing without the cd), and I shortened the outro
because it repeated a lot.All I did was write each part once or
twice instead of however many times it was on the cd.I also added
the last few notes to give a little bit of finality, it kinda fades
out on the cd. This song sounds best played on an acoustic and
without a pick.
Chords:
320003 022000 xx0232 032010
Strumming Pattern:
^ = downstroke
v = upstroke
This strumming is used throughout the song unless otherwise
indicated: ^ ^ v ^ v ^
/ = slide
Verse 1
Do you want it to be outside in the cool night? Where the stars
gravitate toward you. Do you want it to be outside in the cool
night? Where the fog wraps itself around you. Do you want it
to be outside in the sunshine? Where the clouds take their places
for you.
Chorus
And the wind and snow and the rain that blows none of

Bridge
Same strumming pattern as verses, but has a different rhythm
Nobody's hoping for better days. No one knows what to do.
You're okay in your secret ways. No one bothering you.
Might save time if I meet you there, but I don't care, I'd
rather wait for you. And no one's fine and the weather's
fine. I'd rather wait for you. And no one's home and the
weather's fine. I'd rather wait for you.
