Multi track version of
FOR MY LOVER
written by Tracy Chapman
cover performed by Kris Shred

1st track: guitar + voice
2nd track: bassline (played with acoustic guitar and changed frequencies to bassy)

..by the way - this is how my voice sounds right after getting up ;o)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Intro: Em G D Cmaj7 (2x) Em G D A
[V1] Two weeks in a Virginia jail - for my lover, for my lover
Em G D A
Twenty thousand dollar bail - for my lover, for my lover

C A(add9)
[C1] And everybody thinks - I'm the fool
D C
They don't ge__t - any love from you

Em A(add9)
Things we won't do for love
Em G
I'd climb a mountain if I had to - risk my life D Cmaj7
So I could have you__ - you- you- you- you.... Em G D A
[V2] Everyday I'm psychoanalyzed - for my lover, for my lover
Em G D A
Dope me up, and I tell them lies - for my lover, for my lover

C A(add9)
[C1] And everybody thinks - I'm the fool
D C
They don't ge__t - any love from you

Em A(add9)
Things we won't do for love
Em G
I'd climb a mountain if I had to - risk my life D Cmaj7
So I could have you__ - you- you- you- you.... Cmaj7 Em
[B] I follow my heart - and leave my head to ponder
D Cmaj7
Deep in this love - no man can shake
Cmaj7 Em
I follow my heart - and leave my mind to wonder
D Cmaj7
Is this love worth - the sacrifices I make?


[V1] + [V2] repeat
[C1] repeat

Outro: Em G D Csus (2x)
