TRANSCRIPTED by
Håkan Mattsson   &   Paco Jimenez
(If someone can do another better capo job
it will be welcome)

Capo 2
D F#m

D                                 Bm
Brings jasmine tea on a painted tray
D                         Bm F#m
and bends to kiss my frown away.
A                 C#m              E
But I'm  still stuck in the August rain;
A                 C#m              E
stuck out in the cloudburst once again.

E G#m

E                               C#m
The cover's on, the coast is clear.
E                           C#m G#m
We're all battened down, only us here.
B                  D#m              F#
But I'm  still stuck in the August rain;
B                  D#m              F#
stuck out in the cloudburst once again.
           C#
She walks between the lines
              AMaj7   (OK, but name it Amaj7)
and she can read my signs.
 

OK, difficult. They play the notes (with no capo)
1) B C# F,  B-chord,
2) F F# G#, B-chord.

With capo 2 you may play for instance
    1)  A    2)  A (I never tried the 2) on the guitar)
--------0----?---5--------------
-----4--3----?---5---
---4----3----?---6---
--------3----?---7---
-0------0----?---7---
-------------?---5------

Instead of the 2) you could play the 1) again. I'll have to do
some more "research" here, because I did this late last night, on a
very low volume.

                         A

F#                     D#m
Single-minded in my gloom.

I appear to revel in this darkened room.
C#             Fm                      G#
But I'm  still stuck in the August rain;
C#             Fm                      G#
stuck out in the cloudburst once again.

She walks between the lines
                BMaj7
and she can read my signs.

I played the piano during this, that is why I write notes
without capo.
