Nine days, I am (vsn 3).
Nine Days : If I Am
Standard tuning
Capo 4th fret
Ok.. I saw two other posts of this song and they were both
correct in some parts and wrong in others. Also they had
some really weird names for some of the chords, so I combined
the two other posts and came up with this. It sounds better I think.

[G]So your standing on a le[D]dge,
It looks like you might fa[Em7]ll. So far down,
[F]Or maybe you were thinking about [G]jumping.
Now you could have it a[D]ll,
If you learned a little pa[Em7]tience!
For though I cannot f[F]ly,
I'm not content to cra[G]wl!...
So give me a little cr[D]edit,
Have in me a little fa[Em7]ith!
I want to be with you fo[F]rever,
If tomorrow's not too la[G]te!...
[G]But it's al[D]ways too late when you've got no[Em7]thing
[Cadd9]
So you say!... --3--------3- --3--------3- --0--------0- --2------0-2- --2--0h2---3- --X--------X-
[Cadd9]But you should n[D]ever let the sun set on to[Em7]morrow,
[Cadd9]Before the sun rises today...
Chorus:
[G]If I [D]am
[Em7]Another waste of [Cadd9]everything you [Em7]dreamed of
[D]I will let you [Cadd9]down
[G]If I [D]am
[Em7]Only here to [Cadd9]watch as you [Em7]suffer
[D]I will let you [Cadd9]down
So your walking on the edge,
And you wait your turn to fall.
But you're so far gone,
That you don't see the hands upheld to catch you.
And you could find the fault,
In the heart that you've been handed!
But though you cannot fly,
You're not content to crawl!...
And it's always too late when you've got nothing
So you say!...
But you should never let the sun set on tomorrow,
Before the sun rises....
If I am!
Another waste of everything you hoped for,
I will let you down...
If I am!
Only here to watch you as you suffer,
I will let you down...
Bridge:
Once again I´m to lazy to write out the strumming pattern but just use these
chords andlisten to the record and you will get it right.
[D] [Dsus4] [Em7] [Cadd9]
-2---3---2---3---3---3- -3---3---3---3---3---3- -2---2---2---2---0---0- -0---0---0---0---2---2- -X---X---X---X---2---3- -X---X---X---X---X---X-
So you're standing on a ledge,
It looks like you might fall...
If I am!
Another waste of everything you dreamed of,
I will let you down...
If I am!
Only here to as watch you suffer,
I will let you down...
The answers we find,
Are never what we had in mind.
So we make it up as we go along...
You don´t talk of dreams.
I won't mention tomorrow.
We won't make those promises that we can't keep...
I will never leave you!
I will not let you down!
I will never leave you!
I will not let you down!
