From: Alex Marini
It's a cover of a famous song ( originally performed by .. ehm.. Mr. X ? )
sung by Mariah Carey from the album "MUSIC BOX"
It's really played in F#, but it's more human in E ( for all who wants
to sing in Mariah Carey's way ); if you want the real tonality, put the
capo on the 2nd fret.
The intro goes (more or less ) like this
B E
e|--2---2---0---0--|
B|--0---0---0---0--|
G|-----------------|
D|-----------------|
A|-----------------|
E|-----------------|
and it's really played by the piano. The piano also plays the G# with
all the basses added ( G# G#/A# G#/C G#/C# )

[Verse 1]
E
No I can't forget this evening
C#m7
Or your face as you were leaving
F#m
But I guess that's just the way
G# G#/A# G#/C G#/C#
the story goes
C#m C#m/B F#add6 F#
You always smile but in your eyes your sorrow shows
E B7
Yes it shows
E
No I can't forget tomorrow
C#m7
When I think of all my sorrow
F#m
When I had you there but then I
G# G#/A# G#/C G#/C#
let you go
C#m C#m/B F#add6 F#
And now it's only fair that I should let you know
E B7
What you should know
[Chorus]
E C#m
I can't live, if living is without you
F#m B7sus4 B7
I can't live, I can't give anymore
E C#m
I can't live, if living is without you
F#m B7sus4 B7
I can't give, I can't give anymore
[Verse 2]
E
Well I can't forget this evening
C#m7
Or your face as you were leaving
F#m
But I guess that's just the way
G# G#/A# G#/C G#/C#
the story goes
C#m C#m/B F#add6 F#
You always smile but in your eyes your sorrow shows
E B7
Yes it shows
[Chorus]
E C#m
I can't live, if living is without you
F#m B7sus4 B7
I can't live, I can't give anymore
E C#m
I can't live, if living is without you
F#m B7sus4 B7
I can't give, I can't give anymore
