If I Am Chords by Nine Days,
Song: If I Am
Artist: Nine Days
Tabbed By Allen Gregory (allengregory167@hotmail.com)
Since I have not seen a decent version of this song anywhere I have used the parts
that are correct from the ones I have found as well as my own guitar skills *coughs*
to make one version that is 100% correct. It is only missing the instrumental which
I will add once I have figured it out.

Chorus
G-D-Em7-Cadd9-Em7-D-Cadd9
G F6/9
So you’re standing on a ledge
Cadd9
It looks like you might fall
So far down
F *open* G
Or maybe you were thinking about jumping
G F6/9
Now you could have it all
Cadd9
If you learned a little patience
F
For though I cannot fly
*open* G
I'm not content to crawl
G F6/9
So give me a little credit
Cadd9
Have in me a little faith
F
I want to be with you forever
*open* G
If tomorrow’s not too late
G D Em7
But it's always too late when you've got nothing
Cadd9
So you say (hammer on 0 -> 2 on A string 0h2)
G D Em7
But you should never let the sun set on tomorrow
Cadd9 <---strum once and let ring
Before the sun rises today
G D
If I am
Em7 Cadd9 Em7
Another waste of everything you dreamed of
D Cadd9
I will let you down
G D
If I am
Em7 Cadd9 Em7
Only here to watch as you suffer
D Cadd9
I will let you down
(Instrumental Go through Verse chords)
G-F6/9-Cadd9-F-*open*-G
G F6/9
So you’re walking on the edge
Cadd9
And you wait your turn to fall
But you're so far gone
F *open* G
That you don't see the hands upheld to catch you
G F6/9
And you could find the fault
Cadd9
In the heart that you've been handed
F
For though you cannot fly
*open* G
You're not content to crawl
G D Em7
But it's always too late when you've got nothing
Cadd9
So you say (hammer on 0 -> 2 on A string 0h2)
G D Em7
But you should never let the sun set on tomorrow
Cadd9 <---strum once and let ring
Before the sun rises today
G D
If I am
Em7 Cadd9 Em7
Another waste of everything you dreamed of
D Cadd9
I will let you down
G D
If I am
Em7 Cadd9 Em7
Only here to watch as you suffer
D Cadd9
I will let you down
(Instrumental)
D-Em7-D-Cadd9
G F6/9
So you're standing on a ledge
Em7 Cadd9
It looks like you might fall
G D
If I am
Em7 Cadd9 Em7
Another waste of everything you dreamed of

I will let you down
G D
If I am
Em7 Cadd9 Em7
Only here to watch as you suffer

G D
The answers we find
Em7 Cadd9
Are never what we had in mind
Em7 D Cadd9
So we make it up as we go along
G D
You don't talk of dreams
Em7 Cadd9
I won't mention tomorrow
Em7 D Cadd9
And we won't make those promises that we can't keep
G D Em7 Cadd9
I will never leave you
Em7 D Cadd9
I will never let you down
G D Em7 Cadd9
I will never leave you
Em7 D Cadd9
I will never let you down
