Whenever I Run Keith Urban
I've seen this song tabbed a few times...to my ear, the
others are close but not quite there. I usually see the
chord at the beginning of each verse phrase as Am7...this
is actually an Am. The Am7 doesn't match the moodiness
of the song...I don't think it's used at all.
There's a delicate difference between the F and Fmaj7
in this song, too. The F chord is used during the meat
of the song with Fmaj7 only showing up in the bridge
and at the end of the chorus. A subtle difference but
one worth using to preserve the feel of the song.
In the true spirit of a bridge, it should
lead away from the normal progression of the song.
I've seen the bridge tabbed as Am7 being the first chord
of each phrase, this is actually an Em. The bridge is Em to Fmaj7 (x3)
then G to F on the final line. And watch for the Em Fmaj7
combo at the end of the chorus leading into the bridge...it sets
up this Em to Fmaj7 volley in the bridge.
Try it! Comments welcome!
