Verse 1

Don't you know we've come too far now

Just to go and try to throw it all away

Thought I heard you say you love me

That your love was gonna be

Gadd9

here to stay

I've only just begun to know you

All I can say is won't you stay

just one more day?

Accurately transcribed by the GuitarTuna team.

Barre chords ask a lot of the fretting hand. The barre course walks through hand position, pressure, and the cleanest way to land each shape. Practice barre chords

Add9 chords keep the major or minor triad and add a 9th on top, giving a brighter sound. A short course covers the shapes and where they fit. Learn add9 chords

Even perfectly fretted chords sound wrong on an out-of-tune guitar. Get in tune in seconds, right in your browser, with the free online guitar tuner
