Song: Oh Dear
Artist: Brandi Carlile
Album: Give Up The Ghost
**Tune guitar half step down for correct key**
Intro- I don't have the CD, but in a live recording, it started:
DDMaj7D7
   (Hold)
G             D/F#
Oh dear out here,
G7                                C
Everybody stumbles on fear.
Cm                 G
Who cares if we&#146;re scared?
D                                 B7
Everyone is on their own.
Em                                C
It&#146;s only you that my heart desires.
D                                  G
Only you alone can know my pain.
Em                            C
All alone you were sitting there,
D                                       B7
Folding pages for your paper chain.
C                                     C#dim
Now you can cut me free (now you can cut me free),
C                                  C#dim
So when it all unfolds (so when it all unfolds),
C                                  C#dim
We&#146;ll be holding hands and go on,
D                             B7
Together you and I forever.
G                     D/F#
Heart breaks, mistakes,
G7                                  C
Catching up to me in old ways.
Cm              G
I know of hard days.
D                                        B7
Had my share of lonely nights.
Em                                   C
Its only you that my heart desires.
D                                 G
Only you alone can break my fall.
Em                                  C
I pace the floor and I wish for more,
D                                                             B7
While you were dreaming with your paper dolls.
C                                      C#dim
Now you can cut me free (now you can cut me free),
C                              C#dim
Forever say goodbye (forever say goodbye),
C                                     C#dim
Or well be holding hands and go on,
D                              B7
Together you and I forever.
G                D/F#
Poor dear out here,
G7                                C
Everybody stumbles on fear.
Cm                  G
Who cares if you&#146;re scared?
D                                B7
Everyone is on their own.
       G
Oh dear.
