Could You chords by Daniel Merriweather

Could you by Daniel Merriweather chords

**I use capo third fret, but since this is a completely acoustic rendering of this song and the actual strings
played in this song aren't easily detectable nor findable in sheet music anywhere, play whatever suits your
vocal style, as this is a very vocal-heavy song.


Verse 1:

C                   Em
I hope you're not a butterfly
       Am               G             C   G
That's gonna spread its wings and fly awa—ay
C                     Em
I hope you're not the moving type
       Am           G             C   G
That's gonna up and pack and walk awa—ay’

Bridge to Chorus 1:

C          Em      Am              G        C
I need you to be there to treat me like you care
C          Em      Am            G      C
I need you to be where, anywhere I need you
C          Em      Am              G      C
I need you to myself, not lay with anyone else
C          Em             G
I need you next to me for always

G                         C         Em    Am             G      C    G
Could you be my sunshine (Could you be my sunshine) on a cloudy da--ay?
G                       C         Em    Am               G       C      G
Could you be my yellow (Could you be my yellow) when I'm feelin' gra--aay?


Verse 2:

I hope you're not the type
          Am             G              C     G
To jump into the car and twist the key, goodbye
C                     Em
I hope you're not the type
                Am              G             C    G
That's quick to say goodbye and not give it a chance

**thanks for reading, I'll be occasionally revisiting this for edits and I'll probably eventually tab out the
instrumental and vocal fills, so keep an eye out!
