Parachute by Chris Stapleton - Guitar Chords

Version 1 Version 2
            Parachute by Chris Stapleton
Transcribed by DWdrummer67

This is great tune tune that transcribed prior to the release of Chris's album. It's in a different
key than Chris uses on the album, which is why it sounds different. I actually like it better, but
if you don't... please look elsewhere for the album version. I hope that you enjoy this, but please
don't give it a low star rating just because it's not in the key that's on the album.

BTW... the final G, D and Em notes in the song are notes, not chords.

Tuning: Standard


[Intro]

Em G D E7 Cadd9


[Verse]

Em                         G     D                            Cadd9
Street lights along the highway, throwin’ shadows through the dark
Em                         G      D                  Cadd9
And the memories keep on turnin’, to the rhythm of a broken heart


[Chorus]

Em                                G           D                        Cadd9
You only need a roof when it’s raining… you only need a fire when it’s cold
Em                                G             D                               Cadd9
You only need a drink when the whiskey… is the only thing that you have left to hold
Em                 G                    D                               Cadd9
Sun comes up and goes back down… the fallin’ feels like flyin’ ‘till you hit the ground
Em                         G           D                          Em G D Cadd9
Say the word and I’ll be there for you… baby I will be your parachute
      Em G   D  Cadd9
Parachute


[Verse]

Em                       G     D                        Cadd9
There’s a song that I remember… that I never learned to play
Em                    G           D              Cadd9
And a lifetime of forgotten words… I never got to say


[Chorus]

Em                                G           D                        Cadd9
You only need a roof when it’s raining… you only need a fire when it’s cold
Em                                G             D                               Cadd9
You only need a drink when the whiskey… is the only thing that you have left to hold
Em                 G                    D                               Cadd9
Sun comes up and goes back down… the fallin’ feels like flyin’ ‘till you hit the ground
Em                         G           D                          Em G D
Say the word and I’ll be there for you… baby I will be your parachute
      Em G  D

You only need a roof when it’s raining… you only need a fire when it’s cold
Em                                G             D                               Cadd9
You only need a drink when the whiskey… is the only thing that you have left to hold

Em                         G           D                          
Say the word and I’ll be there for you… baby I will be your parachute

Baby I will be your Parachute
