CHORDS
There are no strummed chords in the recording. If I want to strum along
casually/softly I use these chords:
E-A-D-G-B-e
E x-x-6-4-0-0
Edim x-x-5-3-5-0
F#m7 x-x-4-2-5-0
Bsus4 x-2-4-4-0-0
For a fuller sound I tune down the high e-string and play like this:
E-A-D-G-B-d
E 0-2-2-1-0-2
Edim 0-1-2-0-2-2
F#m7 2-4-4-2-2-2
Bsus4 x-2-4-4-5-2

E Edim
By dawn's first light I'll come back
F#m7 Bsus4
To your room again
E Edim
With my carnation hidden
F#m7 Bsus4
By the packages
E F#m7 Bsus4
I'm carrying
E F#m7 Bsus4
Something
E F#m7 Bsus4 | E | % |
I'm carrying something for you
E Edim
Ah, long time no see baby
F#m7 Bsus4
Sure has been a while
E Edim
And if my reappearance
F#m7 Bsus4
Lacks a sense of style
E F#m7 Bsus4
I'm carrying
E F#m7 Bsus4
Something
E F#m7 Bsus4 | E | % |
I'm carrying something for you
| E | Edim | F#m7 | Bsus4 |
Aaah ...
| E | Edim | F#m7 | Bsus4 |
Aaah ...
E F#m7 Bsus4
I'm carrying
E F#m7 Bsus4
Can’t help it aah ...
E F#m7 Bsus4 [E]
I'm carrying something for you
| E | Edim | F#m7 | Bsus4 |
Oooh ...

Something Ooooh ...
E F#m7 Bsus4 E
I'm carrying something for you
