Lover Dearest by Marianas Trench
Lover Dearest
NOTES:
**D/F# is optional, a regular D chord will work fine. I just like the way D/F# sounds.
VERSE 1:
Em7 Cadd9 G
This place is a hole, and I don't want to go.
(G) D/F#
I wish we could stay here forever alone.
Em7 Cadd9 G
This time that we waste, but I still love your taste.
(G) D/F# Cadd9
Don't let him take my place, don't just sit there.
CHORUS 1:
Em7 Cadd9
Sometimes I wish you would leave me.
(Cadd9) G D/F#
Well I'm not sick of you yet, is that as good as it gets,
Em7 Cadd9 G
I'll just say it, or I could slip into you,
(G) D/F#
It's so easy to come back into you.
Em7, Cadd9, G, D/F#
VERSE 2:
Em7 Cadd9 G
I stand for awhile, and waited for words,
(G) D/F#
Seen but not heard and struggled to try.
Em7 Cadd9 G
My tongue's turning black, but I'll take you back.
(G) D/F# Em7
You're still the best more or less, I guess.
Cadd9
I guess.
CHORUS 2:
Em7 Cadd9
Don't you leave me,
G D/F#
Well I'm not sick of you yet, Is that as good as it gets,
Em7 Cadd9 G
I'll just say it, or I could slip into you,
D/F# Cadd9
It's so easy to come back into you.
BRIDGE:
D/F# Em7
It hurts me to say that it hurts me to stay.
Cadd9 Em7 G
And it might be alright if you go.
(G) D/F# Em7
It hurts me to say that I want you to stay,
Cadd9 Em7 G Cadd9
But it might be alright if you go.
CHORUS 3:
Em7 Cadd9
So leave me,
(Cadd9) G D/F#
Well I'm not sick of you yet, Is that as good as it gets,
Em7 Cadd9 G
I'll just hide it, or I could slip into you,
D/F# Em7
It's so easy to come
Cadd9 G D/F#
back into you.
Em7, Cadd9, G, D/F#
OUTRO:
(D/F#) Em7
Sometimes I think that the bitter in you,
Cadd9
And the quitter in me,
G D/F#
Is the bitter in you and the quitter in me.
Em7 Cadd9
The bitter in you, and the quitter in me,
G D/F#
Is the bitter in you and the quitter in me.
Em7 Cadd9 G
The bitter in you, and the quitter in me,
D/F# Cadd9 G (let ring)
Is beeeeeeeeeeeeetter than the both of us.

ENDING
G D
Sometimes I think that the bitter in you,
Em
And the quitter in me,
C G
Is the bitter in you and the quitter in me.
D Em
The bitter in you, and the quitter in me,
C G
Is the bitter in you and the quitter in me.
D Em

C G
Is the bitter in you and the quitter in me,
D Em C G (D)*
Is, bet-ter than the both of us.
note: i think it sounds good ending with the G fading away, but the D could be
played there at the end once. if you are in a band and want to add another guitar,
there is another part to the song. it sounds good on the piano and should sound
good with guitar. here is the tab:
e|--------------------------------|
B|------0---1----------0----1-----|
G|---0----0---0-----0----0----0---|
D|--------------------------------|
A|--------------------------------|
E|--------------------------------|
you would play this right after the first chord strum for everything and would
play this at the oh, ouh, ouh, oh, ouh, oh, ouh, ouh at lease twice instead of
playing the chords. when ever there is a silent part in the song (just the piano)
you would play this. there is a rest before you play the next one. i put it up
there twice but, you only play it once at some part. on the piano, you would play
this with your right hand, would press the keys G,B,G,C,G. just repeat it. keep in
mind, i did do this on acoustic guitar.
