               HIGHLIGHTED IN GREEN - Kina Grannis

EDIT: This is how it should be played! The chords from the last version were 
TOTALLY off! I tried to do it without actually tuning m guiatr down and got some 
of the transposing wrong! 

This is right now!

This song is from her album 'Sincerely, Me'. Its a great song! Once you've tuned 
down its not that difficult either!

Tuning: 1 and a 1/2 steps down.

Chords Used:
E      022100
Am     x02210 (she sometimes hammers on the 3rd fret, 5th string aswell!)
D/F#   200230  
G      355455
A      577655
E*     x799xx (in bridge she uses this E)
D      x577xx

Note: All barre chords can be played open but this is how Kina actually plays
 it


Intro: E Am 
 
Verse:
E                   Am 
 Clock unwinding, she had waited
E           Am                       E 
 Far too long, sky turning to the night.
             Am
 "Am I alone?" she contemplated.
E             Am          E     Am
 "Is this real? Is this right? No"

Chorus:
      E                   D/F#
 If I tried to come back down 
                G                    A
 to where I can see it, there's no return.
        E            D/F#         G
 And I know should I be the one to fall 
                 A
 I might as well beat it.

E Am x2

Verse:
E           Am
 Step by step she elevated,
E             Am                           E
 Climbing clouds and pulling with all her might.
                    Am
 Closing her mind to the ill-fated,
 E       Am
 She sighed.

Verse:
E            Am
 Could this leap be overrated?
E              Am                         E
 Could she prove she had control of her life?
                   Am
 She had for so long anticipated
E                Am                  E    Am
 This test of courage this test of pride.

Chorus:
      E                   D/F#
 If I tried to come back down 
                G                     A
 to where I can see it, there's no return.
        E            D/F#         G
 And I know should I be the one to fall 
                 A
 I might as well beat it, beat it.

Bridge:
     E*             D
 And I, what I have found
              G
 Is that I am real
             Am*
 Free to be just the way I am
E*             D
 And if what I am
                    G
 Is troublesome for you
              Am
 Go on and ignore me.

E Am E Am G* A X2 
(before the A kina plays the G* then slides up to the 4th and plays A)

Chorus:
      E                   D/F#
 If I tried to come back down 
                G                   A 
 to where I can see it, there's no return.
        E            D/F#         G
 And I know should I be the one to fall 
                 A                 E
 I might as well beat it, beat it, oh no.
