Ill Be Chords

Edwin McCain

I'll Be (acoustic)

I'm a 100% sure in writing this tab. I can't demonstrate the strumming for you, so I 
that you just listen to the music.

Intro :  B, A

(Verse 1)
B                       E(6TH STRING[OPEN])
The strands in your eyes that color them wonderful
B                        A#   G#
Stop me and steal my breath
B
Emeralds from mountains thrust towards the sky
B                        A#    G#
Never revealing their depth

Pre-Chorus:

B    A#      G#         A#
Tell me that we belong together
B         A#          G#           A#
Dress it up with the trappings of love
B        A#          G#             A#
I'll be captivated, I'll hang from your lips
B                             A#                     G#    A#
Instead of the gallows of heartache that hang from above

(Chorus 1)
         B       E(6TH STRING[OPEN])
     And I'll be your crying shoulder
     B         A#   G#
     I'll be loves suicide
     B       E(6TH STRING[OPEN])
     I'll be better when I'm older
     B             A#      G#         B         B-A#-G#
     I'll be the greatest fan of your life

(Verse 2)
    B(STOP)
Rain falls angry on the tin roof
B                      A#    G#
As we lie awake in my bed
B                     E(6TH STRING[OPEN])
You're my survival, you're my living proof
B                      A#    G#
My love is alive not dead

Pre-Chorus:

B     A#      G#          A#
Tell me that we belong together
B        A#            G#           A#
Dress it up with the trappings of love
B         A#              G#        A#
I'll be captivated I'll hang from your lips
B                            F#                      G#   A#
Instead of the gallows of heartache, that hang from above

(Chorus 2:)

         B       E(6TH STRING[OPEN])
     And I'll be your crying shoulder
     B         A#   G#
     I'll be loves suicide
     B       E(6TH STRING[OPEN])
     I'll be better when I'm older
     B             A#      G#         B         B-A#-G#
     I'll be the greatest fan of your life


G#m
And I've dropped out, burned up,
F#m                          E
fought my way back from the dead
G#m
Tuned in, turned on,
F#                              E     Asus4    F#
remembered the thing that you said
(Chorus 3:)

 B       E(6TH STRING[OPEN])
     And I'll be your crying shoulder
     B         A#   G#
     I'll be loves suicide
     B       E(6TH STRING[OPEN])
     I'll be better when I'm older
     B             A#      G#         B         B-A#-G#
     I'll be the greatest fan of your life
