Right By Your Side Chords

(ver. 2)
James Morrison
done by ear, sorry for a bit of made up notation
h/p means hammer on the note then pull it off for a little jazzy riff sound
the chords in parenthesis are optional transition chords

capo 8

INTRO

Where was I when your tears were falling?
Am, Em, Am - C, F, C
Where was I when you needed a friend?

Where was I when your heart was calling?

Do you not remember? Well I'll tell you then.

CHORUS

You know I remained right by your side;
Dm, F#, G - E, Am [H/p's with Am7] - (D)
Pushed through the rain, and into the fire.

E*, F, F#, G
Cos when I said I loved you, that's just what I meant.

So when you ask me, "where was I when..."
F, F#, G - C, F, C
Every time, I was right by your side.

If you don’t remember well I’ll tell you then.

CHORUS

BRIDGE
E, E7, E, E7, F, C
Well don’t you know that I’ve given the best of me
