Biography:
Nine Days is a power pop/rock band that was popular in the early 00s. Formed in New York by musicians John Hampson and Brian Desveaux in 1994, they released three albums independently during the 90s before their mainstream debut album, 'The Madding Crowd', was released in 2000. Their greatest popularity came from a handful of songs from said album (which took its title from the 1874 romantic drama novel 'Far From the Madding Crowd') such as the tracks "Absolutely (Story of a Girl)" and "If I Am".

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