From you-tube video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rzWxfXbM7H0
Tuned half step down
G Em
I suppose its time to see where this will go
C D(Slide C) G-bounce-C
Let's say all the things we already know
G Em
Let's start making plans, I want you to see
C D(Slide C) G-bounce-C
I ain't got a doubt, you're the only one for me
Chorus:
G-bounce-C C & (slide bottom two to 3rd)
I'm gonna step up, Gonna stand tall
G-bounce-C
Im gonna take your hand and understand when you need a place to fall
Em D
Gonna come through, stick up for you
C G D G(Em) C G D G-bounce-C
And any time you want to fly, I will be your big blue sky
This new world is tough, love can lose its way
You and I gotta be strong, take it day by day
We've got something real, We can make it last
I'll give you my word, I'll never take it back
Chorus
F C G
Big... Blue... Sky in your eyes
F C D
Big... Blue... Sky...
Chorus
G D Em
And any time you want to fly,
C slide C to 3rd F7 G-bounce-C
I will be your Big... Blue... Sky...
D(Slide C) = A Regular C chord slid to 3rd fret, thus a D of sorts
G bounce C = Play G chord with your 2nd, 3rd, 4th fingers to enable you to use your 1st
and second finger to quickly (bounce)
back and forth from G to C chords.
G(Em) = Either chord will work. I alternate dependant upon the intensity of the vocalist
what emphasis I like (minor/major)
Enjoy! It's a very nice duet between a female/male vocalist. There are a whole number of
pull-offs you can use off these chords to add to the complexity and sound.
