guitar chords lyrics
UG messed up the synch between the chords and the lyrics, but you'll figure it out,
you're smart.
The intro is just E and B.
E
Turn away,
B C#m
If you could get me a drink
Am
Of water 'cause my lips are chapped and faded
E
Call my aunt Marie
B C#m
Help her gather all my things
Am
And bury me in all my favorite colors,
A A#halfdim B
My sisters and my brothers, still,
Cdim C#m Am
I will not kiss you,
F#m B E
'Cause the hardest part of this is leaving you.
E
Now turn away,
B C#m
'Cause I'm awful just to see
Am
'Cause all my hairs abandoned all my body,
E
Oh, my agony,
B C#m
Know that I will never marry,
Am
Baby, I'm just soggy from the chemo
A A#halfdim B
But counting down the days to go
Cdim C#m
It just ain't living
Am
And I just hope you know
E
That if you say (if you say)
Eaug
Goodbye today (goodbye today)
C#m C#*
I'd ask you to be true (cause I'd ask you to be true)
F#m B C#m**
'Cause the hardest part of this is leaving you
F#m B E
'Cause the hardest part of this is leaving you
*The guitar/piano stays on C#, but the bass plays C# B A G#. It's possible to play the
bass note under the C# triad, but it's not necessary.
**Same idea. The guitar/piano stays on the C#m, but the bass plays C# C B A#.
Here's how to play the chords on guitar. (going from low E to high E)
E - 022100
B - X2444X
C#m- X46654
Am - X02210
A - X02220
A#halfdim - X12120
Cdim - X3424X
F#m - 244222
Eaug - 032110
C# - X4666X
Hope this helps!
