LET ME BE ME - Jessica Mauboy
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
July 18th 2010
Tabbed by: Wayne S
Tuning: Standard EADGBE
Capo: 3
Em: 022000 or 022033 or 02203x
C: 032010 or x32033 or x3203x
G: 320033
D: x00232
Listening to the beginning of the song carefully, the instrument in the background
seems to be playing this. The capital letters represent when the guitar-picking
starts (ie. pick the 2 on the A string when "GROWN" is sung)
Em C G D
e|------|------|------|------|
B|----3-|----3-|----3-|----3-|
G|---0--|---0--|---0--|---2--|
D|--2---|--2---|--0---|--0---|
A|-2----|-3----|------|------|
E|------|------|-3----|-2----|
Em - "i'm a Grown up..."
C - "it's been Like this.."
G - "you're Questioning.."
D - "and Answering.."
From what I can hear, it actually seems like Em is picked through to "you're
- then C is played, but it just doesn't sound right when playing it totally acoustic. But if you
to play it with the
song itself, that's what it sounds like. For the purposes of these tabs, I think it
better utilising all 4 chords.
Either strum, or finger-pick. In the first verse, each chord is picked twice before
(utilising the previously mentioned 4 chords).
Remember, mix/mash it up as much as you like.
Please leave any comments/ratings/corrections/suggestions.
[Verse 1]:
Em
I'm a grown up woman but a girl again
C
It's been like this since I can remember when
G D
You're questioning and answering
Em
You're always talking to me like I can't relate
C
When all I want to do is to communicate
G D
You were meant to be someone else
[Pre-Chorus (less frequent change - suited to picking)]:
Em
I look at the pictures of me and you we're smiling
C
Tell me what happened to the times when
G
We understood each other
D
Yeah
[Pre-Chorus (more frequent change - suited to strumming)]:
