If I Am - Nine Days
Tuning: Standard
Capo: 4th Fret
so you're standin' on a ledge
it looks like you might fall
so far down, or maybe you
were thinkin' about jumping
now you could have it all
if you learned a little patience
for though i cannot fly
i'm not content to crawl
so give me little credit
have in me little faith
i wanna be with you forever
if tomorrow's not too late
but it's always too late
when you've got nothin'
so you'd say
but you should never let
the sunset on tomorrow
C9(hold)
before the sun rises today
if i am, another waste of
everything you dreamed of
i will let you down
if i am, only here
to watch you as you suffer
0
i will let you down
Interlude:
so you're walkin' on the edge
and you wait your turn to fall
but you're so far gone, that you don't see
the hands upheld to catch you
and you could find the fault
in the heart that you've been handed
but though you can not fly
you're not content to crawl
but it's always too late
when you've got nothin'
so you'd say
but you should never let
the sunset on tomorrow
before the sun rises...
if i am, another waste of
everything you hoped for
i will let you down
if i am, only here
to watch you as you suffer
i will let you down
Solo: G-D-Em-Fm7-G-D-FM7(hold)
so you're standin' on a ledge
-
it looks like you might fall
if i am, another waste of
everything you dreamed of
i will let you down (i will let you down)
if i am, only here
to watch you as you suffer
i will let you down
Coda:
the answers we find
are never what we had in mind
so we make it up
as we go along
you don't talk of dreams
when i won't mention tomorrow
and we won't make those promises
that we can't keep
-
i will never leave you
i will never let you down
-
i will never leave you
Em-D C9(pause)
i will never let you down
