Let Me Be Me chords by Jessica Mauboy

Chords with lyrics

LET ME BE ME - Jessica Mauboy
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

July 18th 2010

Tabbed by: Wayne S
Tuning: Standard EADGBE

Capo: 3

Em: 022000 or 022033 or 02203x
C: 032010 or x32033 or x3203x
G: 320033
D: x00232

Listening to the beginning of the song carefully, the instrument in the background
seems to be playing this. The capital letters represent when the guitar-picking
starts (ie. pick the 2 on the Chord diagramA augmentedA string when "GROWN" is sung)

    Chord diagramE minorEm      Chord diagramC majorC     Chord diagramG+G      Chord diagramD MajorD

Chord diagramE minorEm - "i'm a Grown up..."
Chord diagramC majorC - "it's been Like this.."
Chord diagramG+G - "you're Questioning.."
Chord diagramD MajorD - "and Answering.."

From what I can hear, it actually seems like Chord diagramE minorEm is picked through to "you're
- then Chord diagramC majorC is played, but it just doesn't sound right when playing it totally acoustic. But if you
to play it with the

song itself, that's what it sounds like. For the purposes of these tabs, I think it
better utilising all 4 chords.

Either strum, or finger-pick. In the first verse, each chord is picked twice before
(utilising the previously mentioned 4 chords).

Remember, mix/mash it up as much as you like.

Please leave any comments/ratings/corrections/suggestions.
