The Girl City and Colour Cover

This is a new song by City And Colour. Dallas Green has a profound ability to bring depth and meaning to an acoustic guitar. It reminds me of a romantic week in Montreal Quebec with my beautiful girl.

Lyrics:

I wish I could do better by
you cause that's what you deserve
You sacrifice so much of your life
in order for this to work

While I'm off chasing my own dreams sailing around the world
Please know that I'm yours to keep
my beautiful girl

When you cry
a piece of my heart dies
knowing that I may have been the cause
If you were to leave
fulfill someone else's dreams..
I think I might totally be lost

You don't ask for no diamonds rings
no delicate strings of pearls
That's why I wrote this song to sing
my beautiful girl

Great tune, i am learning this song at the moment too, my only pointer i'd have is, istead of hitting the D chord, slide the C chord up two frets

e----0

b----3

g----0

d----4

a----5

e----0

Good work though

[dodgeram77]

good advice, thanks!

[roKAFA]

this is a really good cover.

you almost sound exactly like dallas.

(:

[dodgeram77]

I appreciate it, thanks!~

[hole13]

really strong guitar, I personally thought the vocals were a bit sketchy almost like it was out of your range, maybe try it with the capo down a couple of frets

@roKAFA

[Soundslikehope]

Hello friends :) Watch my cover on my channel. Hope you enjoy it. Peace and love.

[zoeeandmandyy]

you're not very good at singing...

but you're a good guitar player :)

[jaceyfos]

good at guitar, but you were straining your voice waaayy to much... it didn't sound natural, or good

[88DnG]

well he does ok. Sure as fuck doesnt sound like dallas green.. hell i sound better. lol not to be a dick. but we need better covers most of then are fuking brutal. if u wanna see my cover go to.Cross My Heart Cover. under 88DnG..

[crazyspin19]

dude slow the tempo down a bit and make sure your voice is more in tune, but otherwise good :D

[jmpimp1988]

No shit'n you play that guitar perfectly! the sound is spot on!

[emotionalloving]

excellent guitar playing man! this is the only cover i've found that i liked :)

[jeanetterocks]

beautiful cover, i just covered this one the other night, dallas has a way of playing the song fast but right on tempo, you did a nice job, i think if you work on your vocals a little more then itll help you in the long run, 5 stars

[rageme777]
