So I've taken this song cuz there are 2 wrong versions of the song around here..
Anyways, 4 Chords - Eb, F, Gm, Bb
With capo on 1 - D, E, F#m, A
CHORDS LISTED ARE WITHOUT THE CAPO.
The strumming is a bit tricky for the verses: either you fingerpick it 3 times for each chord at same rhythm
or you strum it 3 times for the first chord and 1 quick + 2 even quicker strums
(meaning Eb would be 3 chords same rhythm, then F would be 1 quick, a little pause then 2 quicker).
Also, the chords begin a bit before the line of the singer.
The Chorus is the same as for rhythm but not for the lines of the singer.
You have to play with the song in order to catch the rhythm.
There's a part in the chorus that goes like this:
e|-5h6----5h6---5h6-----5h6---------|
B|-----8------------8-8-------------|
G|------------7-------------7-------| x4
D|----------------------------------|
A|----------------------------------|
E|----------------------------------|
Second chorus, she joins the part singing 3 line in between of the last line in the chorus (same chords).
[Verse]
EbDo you recallF, not long ago
GmWe would walk Bbon the sidewalk

GmAll we diBbd was care for each other

GmWill we walk Bbin the same road?
EbWill you be Fthere by my side?
