Strumming

There is the original version of this song already on UG (
http://tabs.ultimate-guitar.com/y/yui/tokyo_live_crd.htm ). He did a good job with these
chords. However, that
version requires your guitar to be "half-step down" which is not always a good thing!
So, searching more, I found the chords that just needs a capo and the tuning does not need
to be
changed in order to match the original song. I copied the lyrics from the above site,
the chords from here ( http://music.j-total.net/data/037yu/010_YUI/004.html ); since that
page/site is copy-protected, I had to type our the chords by myself. And, I copied the
English lyrics from here: http://www.kiwi-musume.com/lyrics/yui/frommetoyou/tokyo.html
 
Enjoy playing this song, and please comment on this!
ありがとうございました!

TRANSLATION
___________
 
The day has come when I will leave the room I’m so used to living in
My new journey is still disorienting me
 
On the bus to the station
I emailed my friend
 
On the platform in the morning, I tried calling too
But it felt like something had changed
 
I've brought one old guitar with me
I've left all my photos behind
 
Letting something go and then gaining something new
Does the same cycle repeat itself?
 
When I pretend to be strong, it always leads to dreams
When I let myself be cowardly, they stop
 
As the train began to move
I cried a little
 
I prayed that the town that spread out outside the window
Wouldn’t change
 
The person who gave me my old guitar
Said Tokyo was scary
 
I’ve stopped looking for answers
It doesn’t matter if I make mistake after mistake
 
The red sunset is cut up by the buildings
I hold back my tears
 
But the beginning of each new morning
Will bring confusion for me, won’t it?
 
I can’t only choose the right things
That much I know
