Tuning: E A D G B E
Hi. This is an ear-transcribed fingerpicking of Sad Song - Christina Perri.
Capo: 4th fret
Pay attention in the dynamic of the notes (piano and mezzo forte).
The higher notes and 1st bass are often mf.
This "balance" marks the rhythm. (This serves to the strumming too.)

(Verse)
(Chorus)
I'm so sGorry, it's not lEmike me
It's maAmturity that ID'm lacking
So donG't, don't let meEm go
Just to let me Amknow that grDowing up goes slow
(Bridge)
AllE the rules are meant toAm bend
And you swore you were my fDriend
Now I have to start all Gover agEmain
CaEuse no one's going to take yourAm place
And I'm scared we'll never sDave all the pieces
of lGove we mAmade D
(Chorus)
I'm so sGorry, it's not lEmike me
It's maAmturity that ID'm lacking
So donG't, don't let meEm go
Just to let me Amknow that I caDn slip and fall
And yoGu wont let meEm go
Just let me Amknow that grDowing up goes slow.
GI'm so sorry, itEm's not like me
It's maAmturity that ID'm lacking
So donG't, don't let meEm go
Just to let me Amknow that grDowing up goes slow
