Rainbreaker by The Morganfields (www.myspace.com/themorganfields), from the album,
Thrash Waltz (1993, I think)
This is a basic acoustic version of the song. You can add hammer ons wherever
they sound good. I do them throughout the song on the Em. I also like to play it
with capo on 2nd fret, but I believe the song is open.
