Here's 'Backwards' by Christina Perri. Such a beautiful song.
The other tab for this song was slightly off, so here's the way I play it, I think
it's more accurate.
Any questions/comments, you can email me at julia-music@live.ca.
Enjoy! :)

Capo: 4th
NOTE: For the intro and verses, play the chords as plucked arpeggios (start with
the bass note, then play up three notes and then play back down). The only
strummed parts are the chorus.
Dm - Am - E - Am
[VERSE 1:]
DmTake me backwards
AmTurn me around E
I cannot find my Ambalance on the ground
ThisF world is too heavy
For a fGeather falling quicklAmy
DmAnd I wrote you a storAmy
But I'm aEfraid of how it eAmnds
And all my Ffriends are doing wGell
And I'm still on the mAmend
[CHORUS:]
CI'm going to lay back dowGn
Hope the wind takes me arounFd
I gotta find some coEurage in this town
CCause nobody's going to sGave
Somebody who won't changFe
I tried to be Ebrave
[VERSE 2:]
DmAnd nothing's coming Ameasy
And all at oEnce I feel a little Amqueasy
Oh but if your lFove's my remedy
Won't you pGlease come and be with Amme
DmIt's not like there's much Ambetter
Nobody's gErass is as green as mAmine
I can't say that I'm Fsatisfied
Three thousand mGiles from your kiss gAmoodbye
[CHORUS:]
CI'm going to lay back dGown
Hope the wind takes me aFround
I gotta find some cEourage in this town
[BRIDGE:]
DmAnd everybody's Cafraid
Cause chAmances come from cFhange
(no chords) C
And everybody's afraid
Cause chaAmnces come from bFreaking
And cAmhances are you're bFreaking Eopen
[CHORUS:]
CI'm going to lay back Gdown
Hope the wind takes me Faround
I gotta find some Ecourage in this town
CCause nobody's going to Gsave
Somebody who won't Fchange
It's time to be Ebrave
Dm - Am - E - Am
