so this is one of my favorite carrie songs ever but there’s no chords for it
anywhere . so i figured out my own acoustic version of it .
anyway , since the songs is like , all piano , it doesn’t translate well to guitar ,
so this isn’t supposed sound exactly like the real song . . . it’s just an acoustic
version . if you want the long ending ( like in the song ) , it’s just the intro
repeating itself , just be creative with it . ( : to get the timing and strumming
right just listen to the song , it’s pretty easy to figure out .
also , it’s supposed to be capo on 4th , but i personally think it sounds better on
the 3rd . . . i prefer singing it that way at least .
capo on 4th
intro :
[ once each ] F C Em Am
[ strum ] F C Em Am
F C Em Am
all the raindrops in the sky tonight
F C Em Am F
can’t compare with all the pain and all the tears i’ve cried
F C G [ once ]
but now i’m done
F C Em Am
all the make – believe locked in this picture frame
F C Em Am F
is gonna stay behind along with all the burning rage
F C G
that’s been tearing through my heart
F C G
killing me slowly , every beat i was falling apart
F
sometimes you give
C
sometimes they take
G
sometimes you bend
F Em Am
and sometimes they break you down
Em Am
sometimes you stick around trying to change them ,
F Am [ once ]
make them someone that they’ll never be
[ no chord ] F C Em Am
and sometimes you leave
F C Em Am
all this time i’ve spent staring at the door
F C Am F
i never had the strength to pack my bags and leave before
F C G
but now i’m done
F C G
lying to myself when it’s clear that you’re not the one
F
sometimes you give
C
sometimes they take
G
sometimes you bend
F Em Am
and sometimes they break you down
Em Am
sometimes you stick around trying to change them ,
F Am
make them someone that they’ll never be
C
and sometimes you leave
G Em Am C
when there’s nothing left for me to leave behind
G Em Am C G
and you’re already too far gone to say goodbye
F [ once ]
sometimes you give
C [ once ]
sometimes they take
G [ once ]
sometimes you bend
F [ once ] Em [ once ] Am [ strum ]
and sometimes they break you down
Em Am
sometimes you stick around trying to change them ,
F Am [ once ]
make them someone that they’ll never be
Em [ once ]
and sometimes you leave
[ no chord ] F C Em Am
sometimes you leave
F C Em Am [ once ]
