G    320003
Em   022003
Em*  022000
C    x32013
C*   x32010
D/A  x04232
D/A* x0423x
 
- the chord variations with an asterisk (*) always have a lower melody note than the chords without.
   that might make it slightly easier to remember which one's which
 
- the C chords also seem to alternate between C and Cmaj7.
   just try to open the B string during the chord every so often
 
 
- in the intro and verse, there's a melody that sounds like this
e|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|
B|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|
G|-------0---------|-------0---------|-----------------|-----------------|
D|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|
A|-0-2-------------|-0-2-------------|-0-2(2)----------|-0-2(2)----------|
E|-----3-----------|-----3-----------|-------3---------|-------3---------|
 
   so you can try to emulate it using the G and Em chords like this
e|-------3---3---3-|-------3---3---3-|-------3---3---3-|-------3---3---3-|
B|-------0---0---0-|-------0---0---0-|-------0---0---0-|-------0---0---0-|
G|-------0---0---0-|-------0---0---0-|-------0---0---0-|-------0---0---0-|
D|-0-----------0---|-0-----------0---|-2-----------2---|-2-----------2---|
A|-0h2-2-------2---|-0h2-2-------2---|-0h2-2-------2---|-0h2-2-------2---|
E|-3---3-------3---|-3---3-------3---|-0---0h3-----0---|-0---0h3-----0---|
 
 
[Intro]
 
G Em (x4)
 
[Verse 1]
        G                   Em
Of all I knew, I heard too few
                G                     Em
And would you stop me if I tried to stop you
 
[Chorus]
C                        Em
Old songs stay till the end
C        C*                  Em*
Sad songs remind me of friends
        D/A                Em*
And the way it is, I could leave it all
      C         C*          Em
And I ask myself, would you care at all?
 
G Em (x2)
 
[Verse 2]
G                            Em
   When I drive alone at night, I see the streetlights as fairgrounds
G                            Em
   And I tried a hundred times to see the roadsigns as Day-Glo
 
[Chorus]
C        C*              Em
Old songs stay till the end
C        C*                  Em
Sad songs remind me of friends
        D/A                Em*
And the way it is, I could leave it all
      C                     Em*        Em
And I ask myself, would you care at all?
 
[Bridge]
 
G Em (x3)
G Em*
 
[Chorus]
C*                       Em*
Old songs stay till the end
C*                           Em*
Sad songs remind me of friends
        D/A*               Em*
And the way it is, I could leave it all
      C*                    Em*        Em
And I ask myself, would you care at all?
