Breaking Benjamin - Rain

the song never uses the highest two strings , B and e; it sticks to the bass
tones . for the chords that have the same finger positions but different strings
are strummed , i put “var#” ( “variation#” ) after the chord for lack of a better
notation method .

don’t let the chord names scare you , it’s really pretty simple . play along with
the song to match the rhythm with the chords and enjoy : )
