------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SAY GOODBYE - Chris Brown ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- First Submitted: August 5th 2010 Last Updated: August 12th 2010 Tabbed by: Wayne S Tuning: Standard EADGBE Capo: 1 Chords: Am: 002210 F: 133211 C: 032010 G: 320033 or 355433 Dm: 000231 (only used in Intro) Chord in brackets (eg. the Am above "I swear it'll only take..") mean either: - The chord is continued from the end of the previous line and in the same bar - It is above "secondary" lyrics, eg. when lyrics overlap like the end of the hook I KNOW" and start of the chorus "THERE'S never a right time...". By secondary I mean the less important chord. In the given example, the lyrics in brackets overlap, but the start of the chorus is more important than the end of the hook. Note: The timing for the intro was very hard to represent in this tab. Hopefully if you know the song well enough, you might be able to recognise where to sing. I tried to do it for a few of the points but as I said, it was quite challenging. Basically the number (eg. [1]) is supposed to be aligned with the note you pluck. That [1] is also put above the bit of the song you're supposed to sing when that note is plucked (or relatively close to that lyric). Please leave any comments/ratings/corrections/suggestions.

Why?" G Why am I taking so long to say this? Am But trust me, girl I never F Meant to crush your world (F) And I never C G Thought I would see the day we grew apart (G) (Am) And I wanna know [Repeat Hook] [Repeat Chorus] [Bridge]: Am Listen to your heart (Am) Girl you know, F We should be apart, baby I C I just can't do it G I, I just can't do it Am Listen to your heart (Am) Girl you know, F We should be apart, baby I C I just can't do it G Am And sometimes it makes me wanna cry F C Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh G Do you hear me crying?
