Nine Days - If i am

Name: Scott McKenna Tabs: "If I Am" by Nine Days For those of you that have the Nine Days Cd or have heard it know that this song is really cool. I didn't wanna be really fancy with it so i just put the chords above the words and its easy to figure out when they change. But anyway hope you enjoy. Its about 100% correct... but there could be slight errors. Thanks. Verse G Em C Am So you’re standing on the ledge it looks like you might fall…. so far down or maybe you were Thinking about jumping.., now you could have it all if you learned a lot of patience.. for though I cannot fly im not content to crawl….to give me a little credit…, have in me a little faith I wanna be with you forever if tomorrow’s not too late Pre Chorus Em D G Em D Em Cadd9 But its always too late when you got nothing….so you say. And you should never let the sunset on tomorrow before the sunrises today. Chorus G D Cadd9 G Em/G D Cadd9 If I am…..another waste of everything you dreamed of I will let you down………If I am only here to watch you as you suffer……I will let you down…. G Cadd9 G Em D Verse G Em C Am So you’re walking on the edge and you wait your turn to fall but you’re so far gone that you don’t see the hands upheld to catch…..and you could find the fault in the heart that you’ve been handed for though you cannot fly you’re not content to crawl… Pre-Chorus Em D G Em D Em Cadd9 And it’s always too late when you got nothing so you say……and you should never let the sunset on tomorrow before the sunrises today Chorus G D Cadd9 G Em/G D Cadd9 If I am another waste of everything you dreamed of….i will let you down……if I am only here to watch you as you suffer…..i will let you down.

If I am! Another waste of everything you hoped for, I will let you down... If I am! Only here to watch you as you suffer, I will let you down...

This real nice when I play along with (or without)the actual song. Some people think its played too much...I might agree, but I never get tired of hearing it. If you like this tab feel free to give it to a friend. Also feel free to check out my webite www.angelfire.com/games/playersparadisefor all sorts of neat stuff... G, Dsus4, A7sus4, D, Cadd9, Em7, G/F# KEY: Chord name: Strings: G (320033) Dsus4 (xx0233) A7sus4 (x02033) D (xx0232) C(9) (x32033) Em7 (022033) G/F# (220033) Refrain: G C(9) how many days in a year (Refrain x 1) (Verse x 1) (Pre-Chorus x 1) (Refrain x 1) (Pre-Chorus x 1) (this leads into the guitar solo) Guitar Solo the way this is played in the song makes it nearly impossible to tab perfectly so a few notes may be missing, but this is very close. This is also a great solo to improvise on -- be creative!! (P.S.-- I didn't figure out the lead into the solo, the tab below is only after the band pauses) e b 8-8-8--10-10--8-8--8-8-8-8-8-8-10/12-10-8 g 7-7-7-7-7-4-2-0--0-0-0--4-5-4--7-7-7--5-7-9 d a E (This is where it gets really high and fast on the e string) e 15-15-15-12-12-10-10-10/12-12/10\15-15-15-15-15-15-15-15-12-10 b g d a E e b 11/8-8-8-8-8-10-8--8-8-8- g 7--9--9 (slide down to about 2 while pickin several times) d a E (Pre-Chorus x 1) (Refrain x 3) (leave out "G, Dsus4, C(9)" set and combine the 3 refrains) End Riff: The end riff is the set of chords that you didn't play during the last string of refrain riffs G, Dsus4, C(9), G, Dsus4, C(9), G, Dsus4, C(9), G...fade out (Whenever this riff is played during the song the band switches between the chords quickly and doesn't play each one the same number of times. Listen to the song and you'll get a feel for it). Hope you can follow all this. Practice and before you know it you'll be impressing your friends with those mad guitar skills. And don't forget about www.angelfire.com/games/playersparadise!! See ya later. Tabbed by Hunter, a.k.a. The Mighty Wong
