I heard this song on One Tree Hill and instantly fell in love with it - Jana Kramer has
such a beautiful voice! This is my first one of these and so the chords may not be
totally accurate but I tried!
Also, I taught myself to play the guitar (the piano's what I usually play) and so don't
really know about tabs and things but I'll try to describe how I play it at different
points instead of using the proper notation!
Introduction
(Whilst doing D Chord fingering) I pluck these strings:
D B E G B D (teeny pause)
E(2nd fret) E(3rd fret) E(5th fret) E(5th fret)
(If you listen to her performance it should be easier to understand and then for the
verses and choruses I tend to play a similar thing to the first part of the introduction)
Don't tell me love is something you won't try again
That's just not true
But baby right now maybe what you need's a friend
Well I'm here for you
I will be by your side
If ever you fall deep in the dead of the night
Whenever you call
And I won't change my mind
No I'll see you through
And I won't give up
(I like to pluck the E and D strings together twice for the G, then the A and D chords
twice for the A chord - she sort of does that in the acoustic version ... sort of)
No I won't give up
I won't give up on you
(Repeat introduction)
You need someone who knows you from the inside out
The way I do
I've seen you walk the wire never looking down
I believe in you
I will be by your side
If ever you fall deep in the dead of the night
Whenever you call
And I won't change my mind
No I'll see you through
And I won't give up
No I won't give up
I won't give up on you
I will be by your side
If ever you fall deep in the dead of the night
And I won't give up
No I won't give up
I won't give up on you
You can call it love
G A D (slow, gentle strum)
But I won't give up on you
Hopefully it's not too badly wrong! Enjoy :)
