Fade Away chords

Fade Away

• G

It's easier to play this song 1 full step down so those will be the chords I use but 
I'll also list the ones you would use in standard tuning at the bottom.

Update: This sounds more than perfect on piano. Don't rate low or complain because 
you have to change tuning or play some barre chords.


Verse 1

          G                          F
If I died today, I wonder what you'd say
          C                     Am
Would you criticize my life, or smile and wave goodbye?
          G                    F
If I died today, would you be afraid?
             C                                   Am
Would you be thankful for our time, or would you hang your head and cry?
    Em             D               G
Cuz girl I know it could go either way



Chorus

G         F
Baby Baby don't you love me?
C                   Am
All your tears wont change your past
        Em             D              G
They'll only drown the smiles on your face
    G          F                    C          Am
And maybe Baby all that we had, was never ever meant to last
   Em             D                G
So let me go, but don't you let me fade away



Verse 2

       G                          F
If you close a door, swim for the shore
                       C               Am
Walk straight into the sun and let the healing horses run
    Em              D           G
Cuz it won't do you any good to bleed
  Em              D              G
Another tear over what became of me



Chorus
G         F
Baby Baby don't you love me?
C                   Am
All your tears wont change your past
        Em             D              G
They'll only drown the smiles on your face
    G          F                    C          Am
And maybe Baby all that we had, was never ever meant to last
   Em             D                G
So let me go, but don't you let me fade away



Bridge

Em                            G
When he holds you in his arms, and your laying in my bed
Em                  G
Does he turn you on, the way that I did?


Chorus

G         F
Baby Baby don't you love me?
C                   Am
All your tears wont change your past
        Em             D              G
They'll only drown the smiles on your face
    G          F                    C          Am
And maybe Baby all that we had, was never ever meant to last
   Em             D                G
So let me go, but don't you let me fade away
