I Swear by JMM, written by Gary Barker and Frank Myers
 
Capo on 1st fret
 
 
[Intro]
C    Am7    Em7    F/G  G  x2
 
[Verse 1]
C           F/A       G/B     C
  I see the questions in your eyes
                 F     G       Am
I know what's weighin' on your mind
               F              Gsus  G
But you can be sure I know my part
        C             F/A     G/B         C
'Cause I'll stand beside you through the years
            F         G     Am
You'll only cry those happy tears
                C/G
And though I'll make mistakes
D/F#                  Gsus  G
I'll never break your heart
 
[Chorus]
  C            Am7
I swear by the moon and the stars
       Em7         F     G
in the sky I'll be there
  C              Am7                   Em7
I swear like the shadow that's by your side
        F     G
I'll be there
    Dm7
For better or worse
     Gsus        G
'Til death do us part
     Dm7                 F          Gsus G
I'll love you with every beat of my heart
  C
I swear
 
[Interlude]
(C)   Am7    Em7    F/G  G
 
[Verse 2]
C               F/A   G/B     C
  I'll give you everything I can
                F           G         Am
I'll build your dreams with these two hands
                   F            Gsus  G
We'll hang some memories on the walls
    C             F/A    G/B     C
And when, there's silver in your hair
                  F      G       Am
you won't have to ask if I still care
               C/G
'Cause as time turns the page
   D/F#              Gsus G
My love won't age at all
 
[Chorus]
  C            Am7
I swear by the moon and the stars
       Em7         F     G
in the sky I'll be there
  C               Am7                   Em7
I swear, like the shadow that's by your side
        F     G
I'll be there
    Dm7
For better or worse
     Gsus        G
'Til death do us part
     Dm7                 F          Gsus G
I'll love you with every beat of my heart
  C
I swear

All of these chords sound right on, not sure if they're exactly correct, not sure about the G7, but overall this sounds great. There is a G missing after an Am in the chorus somewhere, can't remember where. Regardless, this is worth 5 stars. If you're looking for a good tab for this amazing song, you've come to the right place.

I really dislike the fact that the second verse is not noted out so that you can auto scroll

Nice thanks!
