BY MY SIDE
ANDREW NEAL
CAPO: 2nd FRET
INTRO:
NONE
VERSE:
D MajorD A augmentedA
Here we stand on a battlefield
B minorBm
Of the head and the heart
G+G
Crunched our teeth behind swords and shields
D MajorD
There’s a war about to start
A augmentedA
And they’ll be many casualties
Bm7Bm7
Left behind on the ground
G+G
And as promised fatalities
A augmentedA D MajorD
But the chaos will drown them out
D MajorD A augmentedA
It’s a fight we’ve all chosen
C majorC 
F#F# B minorBm
And inevitability
A augmentedA G+G
But let’s cheers to us hoping
A augmentedA D MajorD
That it’s where we all wanna be
D MajorD D MajorD
And there’s no way of knowing (no way of knowing)
A augmentedA F#F# B minorBm
What the outcome will be
G+G
But I’d rather get broken
G+G A augmentedA D MajorD
And hold on to your memories
CHORUS:
D MajorD B minorBm
I don’t know what my future holds but I know I want you there
G+G D MajorD
In whatever way brings all that happiness into your life
D MajorD B minorBm
I don’t know how this all unfolds but I know that I don’t care
G+G A augmentedA D MajorD D MajorD D MajorD D MajorD
As long as one way or another you’re here by my side
G+G 
F# minorF#m Bm7Bm7 G+G A augmentedA D MajorD
VERSE:
D MajorD
If my heart’s like an open ocean
F#F# B minorBm
Then your love`s like reef
G+G
If my sorrow a weeping willow
D MajorD
Then your words are the lea-eaves
A augmentedA
If your eyes like a queen-sized mattress
Bb majorBb B minorBm
Then I need to lay down
G+G
If my arms could erase your sadness
D MajorD
Then I’d wrap them around you now
A augmentedA
If I promise forever
F#F# B minorBm
Would you still stick arou-ound?
A minorAm G+G
Lose the chance and find someone better
G+G A augmentedA D MajorD
In the hope that it all works out
A augmentedA
And they say that it’s better
Bb majorBb B minorBm
To have love than have lo-o-ost
A minorAm G+G
But mom raised a go-getter
G+G A augmentedA D MajorD
A augmentedA man who’s willing to pay the cost
CHORUS:
D MajorD A augmentedA F#F# B minorBm Bm7Bm7 Bm7Bm7
I don’t know what my future holds but I know I want you there
A augmentedA G+G A augmentedA D MajorD
In whatever way brings all that happiness into your life
D MajorD B minorBm A augmentedA F#F# Bm7Bm7 Bm7Bm7
I don’t know how this all unfolds but I know that I don’t care
A augmentedA G+G A augmentedA D MajorD
As long as one way or another you’re here by my side
D MajorD B minorBm A augmentedA Bm7Bm7 Bm7Bm7
I’d walk life barefoot on hot coals to prove that I can withstand
A7A7 G+G A augmentedA D MajorD
Any pain that we cause to each other on out or inside
Bm7Bm7 A augmentedA F#F# Bm7Bm7 Bm7Bm7
I don’t know what my future holds but I know I want you there
G+G A augmentedA G+G G+G A augmentedA
