Meaghan Smith -- If You Asked Me

VERY rough outline of the most basic chords.
Being a jazzy song its best to play around with it add runs or what have you until you
have a personal version you enjoy playing. Personally I turn a lot of the chords into
7ths throughout the song and that seems to work nicely.

Capo 2 matches the song.

A minorAm

Verse 1:
A minorAm               E MajorE
Well I know that I should know better
    FF        E MajorE          A minorAm
Than to sit here by the phone waiting like a fool
                E MajorE
And my mailbox never got those letters
    FF         E MajorE      A minorAm
That you promised would be coming my way soon
   FF         E MajorE
Well it’s a strange concept
   FF          E MajorE
With all the tears I’ve wept
   FF        E MajorE
That I would still accept

   A minorAm
If you asked me


Verse 2:
Well you show up when you want romancing
And I’m the perfect one to play the part
And I might be in your arms dancing
But I’m not the only one inside your heart
I know you’re not all mine
Cause I see your wandering eyes
Still I would not decline if you asked me


Bridge:
C majorC          E MajorE
Everybody sees that love has made me blind Oh
  A minorAm          E MajorE
And everybody knows that I have lost my mind
C majorC          E MajorE
And it may be true my heart may be askew
 FF         E MajorE
This love may be a ruse
 FF         E MajorE
I got everything to lose
  FF      E MajorE     A minorAm
But how can I refuse if you asked me

A minorAm E MajorE FF E MajorE A minorAm (x2)

    FF       E MajorE
Well my love I can’t repress
  FF       E MajorE
So boy I must confess
   FF         E MajorE
What I wish you would request
   FF         E MajorE
And I ain't gonna make you guess
     FF      E MajorE
So put me out of my distress
     FF        E MajorE
With or without you I’m a mess
  FF        E MajorE
And boy I would say yes
    A minorAm
