These chords are pretty much dead on when played with the song.
If there need to be any corrections or additions, feel free to let me know.
Capo 2nd fret
Intro
Pick out a D and hit low E on second and
third frets (helps to catch it with the
thumb)...pretty random pickin' on the intro,
you can strum D if you want...didn't go that far into detail.
Verse 1: (During the verses, play a G power chord softly
or palm mute it)
Well I love her and she's leaving
She met a man, plays in a band, last weekend
And he lives out on the west coast
She says she's gotta go
Chorus:
D G A D
But it's a long, long way from Myrtle Beach to L.A.
D G A
Anything could change her mind
D G A Bm
One sunset or one regret
G A
She could turn around, come back, and be mine
G A D
Happy endings happen all the time
Verse 2:
She's almost finished packing
It's over 2,000 miles- a lot can happen
There's gonna be days and days of long stretches
Maybe she'll come back to her senses
REPEAT CHORUS (except on this last line, go back to G power on "time")...
G A G (power)
Happy endings happen all the time
...and keep it going through this whole small 3rd verse.
Well I ain't waitin' on no phonecall
I ain't gettin' my hopes up at all
And I ain't settin' myself up for a fall
REPEAT CHORUS (palm muted until "one sunset")
G A
Then everything would be just fine
G A D
Happy endings happen all the time
SOFTLY WITH G POWER AND FADE OUT WHEN "MYRTLE" STARTS:
Oooo yeah they do
It's a long, long way from Myrtle Beach to L.A.
