I’ll Be
Edwin McCain
[Intro]
D Bm G A
[Verse]
D G
The strands in your eyes that color them wonderful
Bm G A
Stop me and steal my breath
D G
Emeralds from mountains thrust towards the sky
Bm G A
Never revealing their depth
D Bm G A
Tell me that we belong together
D Bm G A
Dress it up with the trappings of love
D Bm G A
I'll be captivated, I'll hang from your lips
D Bm G A A7 Aadd9
Instead of the gallows of heartache that hang from above
[Chorus]
D Bm G A
And I'll be your crying shoulder
D Bm G A
I'll be loves suicide
D Bm G A
I'll be better when I'm older
D Bm G A D
I'll be the greatest fan of your life
[Verse]
D G
Rain falls angry on the tin roof
Bm G A
As we lie awake in my bed
D G
You're my survival, you're my living proof
Bm G A
My love is alive not dead
D Bm G A
Tell me that we belong together
D Bm G A
Dress it up with the trappings of love
D Bm G A
I'll be captivated I'll hang from your lips
D Bm G A A7 Aaad9
Instead of the gallows of heartache that hang from above
[Chorus]
D Bm G A
And I'll be your crying shoulder
D Bm G A
I'll be loves suicide
D Bm G A
I'll be better when I'm older
D Bm G A D
I'll be the greatest fan of your life
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm Bsus2
And I've dropped out, burned up,
A A7 G Gsus
fought my way back from the dead
Bm Bsus2
Tuned in, turned on,
A A7 G A A7
remembered the thing that you said
[Chorus]
D Bm G A
And I'll be your crying shoulder
D Bm G A
I'll be loves suicide
D Bm G A
I'll be better when I'm older
D Bm G A D
I'll be the greatest fan of your life
