Buckley Jeff - Lover You Shouldve Come Over Chords

JEFF BUCKLEY – LOVER, YOU SHOULD’VE COME OVER

This song is in my opinion one of the greatest love songs 
(if not the greatest) of the 90’s.  Just listen to the song 
to get a sense of the strumming pattern. This song also has 



Intro: D           Csus2  Em(add 9) Em  

D
Looking out the door

                             Csus2   Em(add 9)   Em   
I see the rain fall upon the funeral mourners

D
Parading in a wake of sad relations

                    Csus2   Em(add 9)   Em    
As their shoes fill up with water

C#m7(b5)                     F#7(#5)         
           And maybe I'm too young

   Bm             D/A	       G
To keep good love from going wrong

       D                  Csus2  Em(add 9)
But tonight, you're on my mind so
             
             Em 
You'll never know


    D
I'm broken down and hungry for your love

       Csus2    Em(add 9)    Em
With no way to feed it

  D
Where are you tonight?

                   Csus2   Em(add 9)    Em
Child you know how much I need it.

C#m7(b5)                     F#7(#5)       
           Too young to hold on

        Bm           D/A            G      F#7
And too old to just break free and run



CHORUS:
Bm			 Em(add 9)
   Sometimes a man gets carried away,

        Bm				   Em(add 9)
When he feels like he should be having his fun

	     Bm				    Em(add 9)
And much too blind to see the damage he's done

Cadd9                 C
Sometimes a man must awake to find that, really,

       Em        Fdim7
He has    no one...

D/F#                      Gm6
      So I'll wait for you...And I'll burn

A6/9                         G6/B
      Oh will I ever see your sweet return?

Aadd9/C#
      Oh, will I ever learn?

Cmaj7/E    D6/9      Aadd9/C# G6/B A6/9 Dadd9/F#     D/F# Em  Em(add 9)
     Oh,     oh,     oh, lover,   you    should've come over

                    D           Csus2   Em(add 9)  Em  Em7
'Cause it's not too late.


D
Lonely is the room, the bed is made

		Csus2    Em(add 9)  Em
The open window lets the rain in

D
Burning in the corner is the only one 

             Csus2    Em(add 9)   Em
who dreams he had you with him

C#m7(b5)                     F#7(#5)       Bm   
          My body turns and yearns for a sleep

     D/A        G6
That won't ever come

G#dim7      D/A
It's never over,

		 D     Csus2    Em(add 9)   Em
My kingdom for a kiss upon her shoulder

	   D/A
It's never over, all my riches for her smiles

       D        Csus2   Em(add 9)     Em
When I slept so soft against her...

           D/A
It's never over,

		     D         Csus2   Em(add 9)   Em
All my blood for the sweetness of her laughter

           D/A
It's never over, she's the tear

	             Csus2   Em(add 9) Em
That hangs inside my soul forever

C#m7(b5)                     F#7(#5)       
           Maybe I'm just too young

   Bm             D/A        G       Gm6 
To keep good love from going wrong 

(SOLO)
D/F#   Gm6       A6/9    G6/B    Aadd9/C#      Cmaj7/E  D6/9
 Oh…..     Oh…      Oh..     Oh…           Oh….

Aadd9/C# G6/B  A6/9       Dadd9/F# D/F# Em   Em(add9)
Lover     you should have come     over...

D/F#			 Gm6
I feel too young to hold on

    A6/9			     G6/B
I'm much too old to break free and run

    Aadd9/C#
Too deaf, dumb, and blind

		      Cmaj7/E    D6/9
To see the damage I've done

     Aadd9/C# G6/B   A6/9          Dadd9/F#  D/F# Em(add 9)
Sweet lover,    you,    you should've come   over

Oh, love I'm waiting for you

D/F#          Gm6              A6/9              G6/9        Aadd9/C#
    Lover, lover,  love, lover, love, love, love, love, love, lover

      Cmaj7/E  D6/9  Aadd9/C#     G6/B
Lov                -           er 

  A6/9        Dadd9/F#  D/F# Em Em(add9)
You should've come      over

		    D        Csus2  Em(add9)
Cause it's not too late.
