PROPS GO TO: Angelo DiPersico
I’ll Be There For You (Acoustic)
Performed by Bon Jovi
Written By Jon Bon Jovi & Richie Sambora
From New Jersey (1988)
Tabbed by Hummeroo (hummeroo83@yahoo.com)
This is the acoustic version of I’ll Be There For You which is the only
one that’s correct. All the other ones using Dminor and F are wrong. Also, upstroke
the first and third Em of every verse for a more similar sound to the real acoustic
performances, and stop strumming when it says *STOP*.
Enjoy!
Chords: Em 022000
G x20033
D xx0232
Bm x24432
A x02220

Verse 1:
Em G
I guess this time you're really leaving
D D
I heard your suitcase say goodbye
Em G
And as my broken heart lies bleeding
D *STOP*
You say true love is suicide
Em G
You say you've cried a thousand rivers
D Bm
And now you're swimming for the shore
Em G
You left me drowning in my tears
D *STOP*
And you won't save me anymore
D
I'm praying to God you'll give me one more chance, girl
Chorus:
I'll be there for you
Bm
These five words I swear to you
Em
When you breathe I want to be the air for you
G A D
I'll be there for you
Bm
I'd live and I'd die for you
Steal the sun from the sky for you
Em
Words can't say what love can do
G A *RIFF #1*
I'll be there for you
*RIFF #1*

Verse 2:
I know you know we've had some good times
Now they have their own hiding place
I can promise you tomorrow
But I can't buy back yesterday
And Baby you know my hands are dirty
But I wanted to be your valentine
I'll be the water when you get thirsty, baby
When you get drunk, I'll be the wine
Chorus
Solo: Play Chorus Chords Twice
Verse 3:
Em G
And I wasn't there when you were happy
D Bm
I wasn't there when you were down
Em G
I didn't mean to miss your birthday, baby
D *Scream*
I wish I'd seen you blow those candles out
Chorus
Outro: Same As Intro
Well there you have it. Enjoy! Any comments or thoughts are welcome.
