Hi! I just watched Dear John and looked up this song
and wasn't satisfied with the other versions, so I did my
own! This song is so sweet and I really love it! It's
easy to play too! Have fun:)
Playing the alternate G* makes a slight change that sounds good.
It's really easy, just add the pointer. But make sure you're not
still muting(x) the 'A' and strum it too;)
G [3x0033]
G* [320033]
Standard Tuning **I put ellipses (...) after chords that are
Capo on 2 strummed only once, letting the chord ring out.
Intro (The D is strummed once fast, immediately going into the C)
G G* D C... G G* C...
G Em
I love this place
C D
But it's haunted without you
G Em C D
My tired heart is beating so slow
G Em
Our hearts sing less
C D
Than we wanted, we wanted
G Em C D
Our hearts sing 'cause we do not know, we do not know

If you live another day
C D C
In this happy little house the fire's here to stay
C D
To light the night
G G* Em
To help us grow to help us grow
C D
It is not said
G G* C -The timing is different on this part than the
I always know intro and others. Just listen to the song

It won't go away

The wonder that I made
