If I Am - Nine Days
Tuning: Standard
Capo: 4th Fret
G
so you're standin' on a ledge
Em
it looks like you might fall
FM7
so far down, or maybe you
FM7 G
were thinkin' about jumping
G
now you could have it all
Em
if you learned a little patience
FM7
for though i cannot fly
FM7 G
i'm not content to crawl
G
so give me little credit
Em
have in me little faith
FM7
i wanna be with you forever
FM7 G
if tomorrow's not too late
G D
but it's always too late
Em
when you've got nothin'
C9
so you'd say
G D
but you should never let
Em
the sunset on tomorrow
C9(hold)
before the sun rises today
G D C9
if i am, another waste of
G Em
everything you dreamed of
D C9
i will let you down
G D C9
if i am, only here
G Em
to watch you as you suffer
D 0 C9
i will let you down
Interlude: G-Em-FM7
G
so you're walkin' on the edge
Em
and you wait your turn to fall
FM7
but you're so far gone, that you don't see
G
the hands upheld to catch you
G
and you could find the fault
Em
in the heart that you've been handed
FM7
but though you can not fly
G
you're not content to crawl

G D
the answers we find
C9 G
are never what we had in mind
Em
so we make it up
D C9
as we go along

you don't talk of dreams
C9 G
when i won't mention tomorrow

and we won't make those promises
C9
that we can't keep
G-D C9 - G
i will never leave you
Em-D C9
i will never let you down

i will never let you down
