*Song:
Verse 1
[Cadd9] [D] [G]
People always say
[Cadd9] [D] [G]
Tom, this has gone too far
[Cadd9] [D] [Em]
But I'm not afraid to chase my dreams,
[Cadd9] [D] [G]
Just me and my guitar
[Cadd9] [D] [G]
And no one may ever know
[Cadd9] [D] [G]
The feelings inside my mind
[Cadd9] [D] [Em] [D]
'Cause all of the lines I ever write
[Cadd9] [D] [G]
Are running out of time
[Am] [Fmaj7]
So maybe I should get a nine to five
[Am] [D] [Dsus4]
But I don't want to let it go, there's so much more to life
Chorus
[G] [Dsus4]
Tell me that I've got it wrong
[Cadd9] [G]
Tell me everything will be okay
[D] [Cadd9]
Before I fall
[G] [Dsus4]
Tell me they'll play my songs
[Cadd9] [G]
Tell me they'll sing the words I say
[D] [Cadd9]
When darkness falls
[A7] [Am]
All of the stars will see
[Cadd9] [D] [Dsus4] [G]
Just me and my guitar
[Cadd9] [D] [Dsus4] [G]
Verse 2
[Cadd9] [D] [Dsus4] [G]
I'm sure that I'll find my way
[Cadd9] [D] [Dsus4] [G]
'Cause I'm not afraid to try
[Cadd9] [D] [Em] [Cadd9] [D] [G]
Even a world of love and hope can't guarantee that price
[Am] [Fmaj7]
So maybe I should get a nine to five
[Am] [D] [Dsus4]
But I don't want to let it go, there's so much more to life
Chorus
[G] [Dsus4]
Tell me that I've got it wrong
[Cadd9] [G]
Tell me everything will be okay
[D] [Cadd9]
Before I fall
[G] [Dsus4]
Tell me they'll play my songs
[Cadd9] [G]
Tell me they'll sing the words I say
[D] [Cadd9]
When darkness falls
[A7] [Am]
All of the stars will see
[Cadd9] [D] [Dsus4] [G]
Just me and my guitar
[Cadd9] [D] [Dsus4] [G] (fade out)
Me and my guitar...
*picking:
The first verse I just play the chords once
so it's: Cadd9 D Dsus4 G and so on.
but when I go from D to Dsus4 i only hit the high e string.
the second verse is almost the same but at the G chord I do this:
|e|---3-------3------3--------------||
|B|---3---------3-------------------||
|G|---------------0-----------------||
|D|---------------------------------||
|A|---2-----------------------------||
|E|---3-----------------------------||
And then I start strumming for the rest of the song
the strumming pattern, I don't know exactly how I play it, but I think it's something like:
" down down up up down up up down up up down up "
for the strumming you should just listen to the song and
play what you think sounds the best :)
This is a very simple way to play it and maybe it's not the best, but it sounds pretty good .
