AGAINST ALL ODDS – PHIL COLLINS
By Broomy - UK
INTRO - (Ebm) - (Ab) X 2
(Bbm) (Cm)
How can i just let you walk away,
(C#) (Ebm)
just let you leave without a trace
(F#) (Ab) (Fm) (Bbm)
When i stand here taking every breath with you, ooh
(Ebm) (F#) (Ab)
You're the only one who really knew me at all
(Bbm) (Cm)
How can you just walk away from me,
(C#) (Ebm)
When all i can do is watch you leave
(F#) (Ab) (Fm) (Bbm)
Cos we've shared the laughter and the pain and even shared the tears
(Ebm) (F#) (Ab)
You're the only one who really knew me at all
(C#) (Eb)
So take a look at me now, oh there's just an empty space
(Bbm) (F#)
And there's nothing left here to remind me,
(Ebm) (Ab)
Just the memory of your face
(C#) (Eb)
Ooh take a look at me now, well there's just an empty space
(Bbm) (F#)
And you coming back to me is against all odds
(Ebm) (Ab)
And that's what i've got to face
(the rest of the song follows the same pattern)
I found that you can play it pretty much exactly the same, and its easier, it you use a capo on the first fret and work around that. Anyway, if I get time i'll make my own version to show everyone what I mean.
completely agree....the chords are perfect but the song is incredibly easy with a capo on the first fret...id definitely recommend playing it like that. But a 5 star tab!
Yep, capo is easier if you have one. Ebm is a pain in the backside.
For the beginners who don't understand the 2 previous posts. If you put a capo on the first fret and then play these chord shapes instead of the ones stated; Am,Bm,C,Dm,F,G,Em,Am,Dm,F,G for the verses. C,D,Am,F,Dm,G for the chorus.
