I'll Be There for You Bon Jovi
Iā??ll Be There For You (Acoustic)
Performed by Bon Jovi
Written By Jon Bon Jovi & Richie Sambora
From New Jersey (1988)
Tabbed by Hummeroo (hummeroo83@yahoo.com)
This is the acoustic version of Iā??ll Be There For You which is the only
one thatā??s correct. All the other ones using Dminor and F are wrong. Also, upstroke
the first and third Em of every verse for a more similar sound to the real acoustic
performances, and stop strumming when it says *STOP*.
Enjoy!

Verse 1:
I guess this time you're really lea[Em]ving [G]
I heard your suitcase say goo[D]dbye [D]
And as my broken heart lies ble[Em]eding [G]
D *STOP*
You say true love is suicide
You say you've cried a thousand ri[Em]vers [G]
And now you're swimming for the s[D]hore [Bm]
You left me drowning in my t[Em]ears [G]
D *STOP*
And you won't save me anymore
I'm praying to God you'll give me one more chance, girl [D]
Chorus:
I'll be there for you
T[Bm]hese five words I swear to you
When you br[G]eathe I want to be the air for you
[A]I'll be th[C]ere f[G]or y[D]ou
I'd live and I'd die for you [Bm]
Steal the sun from the sky for you
Wo[G]rds can't say what love can do

Verse 2:
I know you know we've had some good times
Now they have their own hiding place
I can promise you tomorrow
But I can't buy back yesterday
And Baby you know my hands are dirty
But I wanted to be your valentine
I'll be the water when you get thirsty, baby
When you get drunk, I'll be the wine
Chorus
Solo: Play Chorus Chords Twice
Verse 3:
And I wasn't there when you were ha[Em]ppy [G]
I wasn't there when you were [D]dow[Bm]n
I didn't mean to miss your bi[Em]rthday, baby [G]
D *Scream*
I wish I'd seen you blow those candles out
Chorus
Outro: Same As Intro
