If It Means A Lot To You


So I'm really bad at bar chords and many of the tabs here include bar chords for this song. So I wanted to tab a way to play it without bar chords. Also, this song takes a bit of explaining which is hard to do over just txt, so bare with me here. Capo on 3 The intro to this song is somewhat tricky |----------------------------------------------------| |----------------------------------------------------| |--2-4-2-0-2-----------------------------------------| |-------------2--------------------------------------| |----------------------------------------------------| |----------------------------------------------------| x2 |----------------------------------------------------| |----------------------------------------------------| |--2-4-2-0-2-----------------------------------------| |-------------2------4-5-4-5-4-----------------------| |----------------------------------------------------| |----------------------------------------------------| x1 Repeat both of these after playing them once. So you'll play the top part twice, then the bottom part once, then the top part twice and the bottom part once, and thats your intro. Start Strumming with Em G And hey darling D Em I hope you're good tonight G D And I know you don't feel right when I'm leaving Em Yeah I want it but no I don't need it G D Em Tell me something sweet to get me by G D 'Cause I can't come back home till they're singing Cadd9 D Em La, la la la la la la <----- here, strum each chord only once G 'Til everyone is singing <---- go back to strumming D If you can wait till I get home Em Then I swear to you Cadd9 That we can make this last G (La la la) D If you can wait till I get home Em Then I swear come tomorrow Cadd9 This will all be in our past D Well it might be for the best |----------------------------------------------------| |----------------------------------------------------| |--2-4-2-0-2-----------------------------------------| |-------------2--------------------------------------| |----------------------------------------------------| |----------------------------------------------------| x2 |----------------------------------------------------| |----------------------------------------------------| |--2-4-2-0-2-----------------------------------------| |-------------2------4-5-4-5-4-----------------------| |----------------------------------------------------| |----------------------------------------------------| x1 Play this whole thing only once this time Em G And hey sweetie D Em Well I need you here tonight G D And I know that you don't want to be leaving me Em Yeah you want it but I can't help it G D Em I just feel complete when you're by my side G D But I know you can't come home 'til they're singing Cadd9 D Em La, la la la la la la <--------strum once for each chord G 'Til everyone is singing <--------strum throughout this line Cadd9 D G La, la la la la la la <------- again strum only once G D If you can wait till I get home Em Then I swear to you Cadd9 That we can make this last G (La la la) D If you can wait till I get home Em Then I swear come tomorrow Cadd9 This will all be in our past D Cadd9 Well it might be for the best Cadd9 G You know you can't give me what I need G Em And even though you mean so much to me Em D I can't wait through everything D Is this really happening? Cadd9 I swear I'll never be happy again G And don't you dare say we can just be friends Em I'm not some boy that you can sway D We knew it'd happen eventually Cadd9 D Em La, la la la la la la G Now Everybody's singing Cadd9 D Em La, la la la la la la G, Cadd9, D, Em <----- repeat twice (strumming) Cadd9, D, Em, G <------ repeat twice with only strumming once and letting it ring
