Mood : Emo Mood
Key : E Major
This song was introduced by a close friend who works in Yamaha of Jusco Cheras Selatan after I played Avril Lavigne's What The Hell on their beautiful showroom's grand piano. The song is rather straightforward and easy to learn, but you might want to add a little spice on the accompaniment so that it sounds more like the original song played on a guitar.
Click HERE for the video. You'll definitely need it while reading a printed tutorial. Special thanks to a young man who personally emailed me telling me he got laid after playing from my tutorial on Eminem's song. Bravo!
Introduction
LH dances on chord E
RH on notes E and B
Twice
The song just starts!
I can be tough
I can be strong
But with you, It's not like that at all
(Canon in D chords, starting with E, B, C#, A, play it like you're playing the guitar. Right hand plays the Melody with your ear)
Theres a girl who gives a shit
Behind this wall
You just walk through it
(Canon in D chords, starting with E, B, C#, A, play it like you're playing the guitar. Right hand plays the Melody with your ear)
[refrain]
And I remember all those crazy thing you said
You left them running through my head
You're always there, you're everywhere
But right now I wish you were here
All those crazy things we did
Didn't think about it just went with it
You're always there, you're everywhere
But right now I wish you were here
(A little more sophisticated now. Canon in D chords, starting with E, B, C#, A, play it like you're playing the guitar slightly more chords and your own style. Right hand plays the Melody with your ear) Pause
[chorus]
Damn, Damn, Damn,
What I'd do to have you
Here, Here, Here
I wish you were here
Damn, Damn, Damn,
What I'd do to have you
Near, Near, Near
I wish you were here.
(Chorus! Intense, same simple Canon in D chords on E, B, C#, A, you may add some of your own style in between. Right hand plays the chorus like you're shouting DAYUUUUUMMMM!)
I love the way you are
It's who I am don't have to try hard
We always say, Say like it is
And the truth is that I really miss
(Intense! One Octave Higher! Canon in D chords, starting with E, B, C#, A, play it like you're playing the guitar. Right hand plays the Melody with your ear)
[refrain]
All those crazy thing you said
You left them running through my head
You're always there, you're everywhere
But right now I wish you were here
All those crazy things we did
Didn't think about it just went with it
You're always there, you're everywhere
But right now I wish you were here
(A little more sophisticated now. Canon in D chords, starting with E, B, C#, A, play it like you're playing the guitar slightly more chords and your own style. Right hand plays the Melody with your ear) Pause
[chorus]
Damn, Damn, Damn,
What I'd do to have you
Here, Here, Here
I wish you were here
Damn, Damn, Damn,
What I'd do to have you
Near, Near, Near
I wish you were here.
(Chorus! Intense, same simple Canon in D chords on E, B, C#, A, you may add some of your own style in between. Right hand plays the chorus like you're shouting DAYUUUUUMMMM!)
[bridge]
No, I don't wanna let go
I just wanna let you know
That I never wanna let go
Let go, Oh, Oh,
No, I don't wanna let go
I just wanna let you know
That I never wanna let go
Let go, Let go, Let go...
(Chords of Bridge are F# F# C#, E E B, several times, then A, F#, B, C# then B back to E)
[chorus]
