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