I Was Here chords by Lady Antebellum

Chords with lyrics

This is actually the chords for the choral arrangement, but all the parts are the same. The version I
listened to was tuned down a half step.


| D/F#D/F#   G+G | B minorBm  A augmentedA | D/F#D/F#  G+G | B minorBm   A augmentedA |
        |G+G||
You will notice me
     |D MajorD          D/C#|
I'll be leaving my mark like initials carved
   |Bm7Bm7    D/AD/A|
Initials carved an
|G+G|         |AsusAsus|
old oak tree, you wait and see

|B minorBm| |
Maybe I'll write like Twain wrote
|G2| |
Maybe I'll paint like Van Gogh
|EsusEsus|               |E MajorE|
Cure the common cold, I don't know
         |G7G7|                  /    GMaj9Gmaj9|
But I'm ready to start cause I know in my heart

 |D MajorD|                  |Em/DEm/D|          |D MajorD|
I wanna do something that matters, say something different
     |G+G            A augmentedA|     |B minorBm
Something that sets the whole world on its ear
      D/AD/A|       |G7G7|                |E minor 7Em7|
I wanna do something better with the time I've been given
  |D/F#D/F#|         |G+G|            |D/F#D/F#|
I wanna try      to touch a few hearts in this life
             |G+G|             |A augmentedA    N.C.|
Leave nothing less than something that says I was here

| D/F#D/F#   G+G | B minorBm  A augmentedA | D/F#D/F#  G+G | B minorBm   A augmentedA |
       |G+G||
I will prove you wrong
       |D MajorD        D/C#|     |Bm7Bm7      D/AD/A|
If you think I'm all talk, you're in for a shock
            |G+G|                |AsusAsus|
'Cause this dream's too strong and before too long
|B minorBm| |
Maybe I'll compose symphonies
|G2| |
Maybe I'll fight for world peace
|EsusEsus|         |E MajorE|
'Cause I know it's my destiny
         |GMaj9Gmaj9| |
To leave more than a trace of myself in this place!

  |D MajorD|                      |Em/DEm/D|      |D MajorD|
I wanna do something that matters, say something different
              |G+G        A augmentedA|        |B minorBm
Something that sets the whole world on its ear
        D/AD/A|      |G7G7|             |E minor 7Em7|
I wanna do something better with the time I've been given
  |D/F#D/F#|   |G+G|           |D/F#D/F#|
I wanna try    to touch a few hearts in this life
                |G+G|           |A augmentedA   N.C.|     |G+G||  |B minorBm|| |G+G|| |B minorBm| |B minorBm A augmentedA|
And leave nothing less than something that says I was here


 |D MajorD|                      |Em/DEm/D|      |D MajorD|
I wanna do something that matters, say something different
              |G+G        A augmentedA|        |B minorBm
Something that sets the whole world on its ear
        D/AD/A|      |G7G7|             |E minor 7Em7|
I wanna do something better with the time I've been given

            |D/F#D/F#|      |G+G|           |D/F#D/F#|
And I know that I, I will do more than just pass through this life
       |G+G|                 |A augmentedA||
I'll leave nothing less than something that said

| D/F#D/F#   G+G | B minorBm  A augmentedA | D/F#D/F#  G+G | B minorBm   A augmentedA |      |D9D9||
I was here


I was here
