This is in my opinion one of the best songs Natalie Imbruglia has sung during her short career and is featured as a bonus track on her single Big Mistake.
Something Better.
Chords used: D : XX0232 Dadd9: XX0230 G : 355433 Em : 022000 F : 133211 C : X32010 Am : X02210
Played with CAPO 3. If you listen to the CD the rhythm is very easy to pick up.
VERSE 1: D Dadd9 D G I wont say anything. D Dadd9 D G Im hiding in the pink. D Dadd9 D G If I move will I break this spell? D Dadd9 D G Or am I boring you?
VERSE 2: D Dadd9 D G I cant feel anything. D Dadd9 D G I ll think whatever you think. D Dadd9 D G You took me riding on the big wheel, D Dadd9 D G So I guess Im happy now.
CHORUS: (NB. you can continue using the previous chord progression if you prefer)
D Em G Em An I ll stay with you, D Em G Em An I ll lay with you. F C An I ll always be there, F C Am Nothing will go wrong... D Dadd9 D G Til something better comes along.
VERSE 3: D Dadd9 D G So now youve swallowed me. D Dadd9 D G Come and finish off the rest of me. D Dadd9 D We ll build a house with cactus lights, G D Dadd9 D G Spend perfect days and sleepless nights, whatever.
Whatever.
CHORUS:
D Em G Em An I ll stay with you, D Em G Em An I ll lay with you. F C An I ll always be there, F C Am Nothing will go wrong... Am (I think) Em Til something better comes along.
BRIDGE:
Em And Ive lost my finger prints, Em And Ive lost my sixth sense, Em Am But you just dont feel a thing F When the needles going in
(play F throughout guitar solo)
CHORUS: D Em G Em An I ll stay with you, D Em G Em An I ll lay with you. F C F C An I ll always be there; wont go nowhere. D Em G Em I ll stay with you (til something better comes along) D Em G Em An I ll lay with you (til something better comes along) D Em G Em An I ll stay, An I ll lay (til something better comes along) D Em G Em D Dadd9 D G An I ll stay, An I ll lay (til something better comes along) D Dadd9 D G (til something better comes along) D Dadd9 D G (til something better comes along)
D Dadd9 D G F C F C Am (then pause)...
and then: D Dadd9 D G
D Dadd9 D G So now youve swallowed me, D Dadd9 D G Come and finish off the rest of me.
ending: single strum of D
