Artist: Ingrid Michaelson Song: The Way I Am (Live on WERS) Album: Be Okay Tabber: Danny North Email: dnorth2@hotmail.com This is taken from the Be Okay album, the version says (Live at WERS)and it's just one guitar at standard tuning. Great song! Great to play acoustically! The "x"s represent a little slap on the strings where you're playing the bass note. It's not so prominent in some of the slaps but it's pretty much always there. Listen to the song for actual rhythm and timing. Leave me any comments or corrections!

You need a light, I'd find a match. Cause I love the way you say good morning. And you take me the way I am. If you are chilly, here take my sweater. Your head is aching, I'll make it better. Cause I love the way you call me baby. And you take me the way I am. I'd buy you Rogaine when you start losing all your hair. Sew on patches to all you tear. Cause I love you more than I could ever promise. And you take me the way I am. You take me the way I am. You take me the way I am.
