You Were Mine Tab

You Were Mine
Dixie Chicks


I don't have the intro, but it's a variation on an A cord with each
note played 
individually then lifting your index finger for the second cord.
The note after the / is a bass part.
Great song!


                      /     /E(bass)
I can't find a reason, to     let go

                         
Even though you found a new love,

                            
And she's what your dreams are made of.

                    /   /E(bass)
I can find a reason, to hang on

                        
What went wrong can be for-given,

                                 
Without you it ain't worth living, a-lone.


Chorus
                           
Sometimes I wake up cryin' at night,

                              
And sometimes I scream out your name.

     E              D       A    [2]  your heart away
What right does she have to take [1] you away?

                       
When for so long you were mine.

Verse
                  /          /E(bass)
I took out all the pictures of our wedding day.

                       
It was a time of love and laughter,
 
        
happy ever after.

                                 /   /E(bass)
But even those olds pictures have begun to fade,

                      
Please tell me she's not real,

                                  
And that you're really coming home to stay.

Chorus 



Bridge:
                   /
  I can give you two good reasons,

                      
To show you love's not blind.

               /               
He's two and she's four, and you know they adore you.

                                      
So how can I tell them, you've changed your mind?


Chorus (Modulation)
                          
Sometimes I wake up cryin' at night,

                             
And sometimes I scream out your name.

                                 
What right does she have to take your heart away?

                       
When for so long you were mine.

                    
I remember when you were mine.
