I'll Be (acoustic)

I'm a 100% sure in writing this tab. I can't demonstrate the strumming for you, so I 
that you just listen to the music.

Intro :  , 

(Verse 1)
                       (6TH STRING[OPEN])
The strands in your eyes that color them wonderful
                           
Stop me and steal my breath

Emeralds from mountains thrust towards the sky
                            
Never revealing their depth

Pre-Chorus:

                   
Tell me that we belong together
                              
Dress it up with the trappings of love
                               
I'll be captivated, I'll hang from your lips
                                                      
Instead of the gallows of heartache that hang from above

(Chorus 1)
                (6TH STRING[OPEN])
     And I'll be your crying shoulder
                 
     I'll be loves suicide
            (6TH STRING[OPEN])
     I'll be better when I'm older
                                          --
     I'll be the greatest fan of your life

(Verse 2)
    (STOP)
Rain falls angry on the tin roof
                          
As we lie awake in my bed
                     (6TH STRING[OPEN])
You're my survival, you're my living proof
                          
My love is alive not dead

Pre-Chorus:

                     
Tell me that we belong together
                               
Dress it up with the trappings of love
                               
I'll be captivated I'll hang from your lips
                                                     
Instead of the gallows of heartache, that hang from above

(Chorus 2:)

                (6TH STRING[OPEN])
     And I'll be your crying shoulder
                 
     I'll be loves suicide
            (6TH STRING[OPEN])
     I'll be better when I'm older
                                          --
     I'll be the greatest fan of your life



And I've dropped out, burned up,
                          
fought my way back from the dead

Tuned in, turned on,
                                       
remembered the thing that you said
(Chorus 3:)

        (6TH STRING[OPEN])
     And I'll be your crying shoulder
                 
     I'll be loves suicide
            (6TH STRING[OPEN])
     I'll be better when I'm older
                                          --
     I'll be the greatest fan of your life
