Leann Rimes - How Do I Chords

(Live)
#


As sung by:  LeAnn Rimes

Some of the poly chords may be difficult to play on guitar,
but I believe they are the best representation of what is
occuring in the song apart from a bass player. There also may
be a few differences between Trisha Yearwood's version and
LeAnn's however, I believe both songs are nearly the same.

                      "HOW DO I LIVE"

Bsus4   E                  B/D#
How do I, get through one night without you
            F#m7

             Bsus4
What kind of life would that be
       E                    B/D#
Oh and I, I need you and my arms need you to hold

If you ever leave

How do I ever, ever survive

Without you, there'd be no sun in my sky
                  F#m7
There would be no love in my life
              Bsus4
There'd be no world left for me
    E               B/D#
And I, baby I don't know what I would do
       A
I'd be lost if I lost you
   Abm7     C#m7
If you ever leave
F#m7                                Abm7       C#m7  Asus4
Baby you would take away everything real in my life
