Mario Kart Love Song Chords

Here's a great little original song that is saccharine, nostalgic and not very difficult
play. Enjoy!
Capo @ 3rd Fret!
 
Chords:
C [332010]
Gadd11 [320010]
Am [002210]
F [x33210]
Em [x22000]
 
NOTE: On Verse 1 the middle finger of the C chord is pulled off/hammered on, as you can
in the video. Then, leaving your index on on the B string for the Gadd11 chord, he
his pinky down to the 3rd fret [capo'd] to make this a Cadd9 for one or two strokes. The
of the permutations will have to be found by ear. Enjoy!
 
Verse 1:
C
You be my princess
 
I'll be your toad
     Gadd11
I'll follow behind you
 
on rainbow road
Am
Protect you from red shells
 
wherever we go
   F
I promise.
 
Verse 2:
C
Noone will touch us
 
if we pick up a star
Gadd11
If you spin out
 
you can ride in my car
          Am
When we slide together
 
we generate sparks
           F
in our wheels and our hearts
 
Chorus:
C
The finish line
    Gadd11
is just around the bend
      Am
I'll pause this game
        F
so our love will never end
             C
Let's go again
 
Verse 3: [as is in Verses 1 & 2]
The blue shell is coming
so I'll go ahead
If you hang behind
it'll hit me instead
but never look back
cause I'm down but not dead
I'll catch up to you
 
Bridge:
E
    Don't worry about
F
Bowser or DK
E
Eat this glowing mushroom
                  F
and they'll all fade away
 
Chorus X 2
 
          Gadd11
to the mushroom cup
             Am
and the flower cup
             F
and the star cup
             C
and the reverse cup
[from here on out the main chord progression is repeated until the end.]
walalalalala
walalalalalawaluigiiiiii
 
The ending coda again has the C chord, this time arpeggiated with the middle finger
on the D string as you progress downward in the chord. Watch the video!
