If You Only Knew by Shinedown - Guitar Chords

<< Back to Shinedown Song List

Version 1 Version 2

            This is the acoustic guitar only; electric is basically power (fifth) chords
of the same names.

A note on the verse riff: The first Am is actually Asus2 with some hammer
ons to Am on the open B string, then a hammer on to Asus4.  Listen to the song and 
you'll understand what I'm talking about.


[Verse]

Am
If you only knew
Am
I'm hanging by a thread
F         C          F       C
The web I spin for you
Am
If you only knew
Am
I'd sacrifice my beating
F         C           F      C
Heart before I lose you


[Pre-Chorus]

Dsus2
I still hold onto the letters
G
You returned
G
I swear I've lived and learned


[Chorus]

C       Em             
It's 4:03 and I can't sleep
Am                     G
Without you next to me I
G                      C
Toss and turn like the sea
C            Em
If I drown tonight, bring me
Em      Am
Back to life
Am
Breathe your breath in me
    G
The only thing that I still
F       C  G  Am      F   C G  Am
believe in is you, if you only knew


Solo rhythm is the same as the verse.  Listen to the song for strum patterns.  Enjoy!
