I'll Be (Acoustic Version)
Edwin McCain

tabbed by: sixstringseraph
francis_boj@yahoo.com

note: the layout is pretty chaotic so im sorry for that. although i posted
the complete lyrics at the bottom part, i still put it in the tablature part to more or
less
show the timing


Chords
(the whole song is fingerpicked. this tab represents my version. although in the cd,
the only difference is that he uses some fingerpicking variations in different parts
of the song.
but to me this sounds fine as it is. if you want to play it exactly, listen to the Cd. it's
not that
hard to find out his patterns.)

1.The strands in your eyes that color them wonderful
And emeralds from mountains thrust towards the sky
2.And rain falls heavy on the tin roof
And you're my survival you're my living proof

stop me and steal my breath
never revealing their depth
as we lie awake in our beds
my love is alive, not dead
