"God Gave Me You" - Blake Shelton Tab
Okay so this is an awesome country feel good song, pretty easy to learn too. Its
mainly chords but it has some small, easy riffs here and there. I would appreciate
it if someone could tell me what the third chord is, i've mapped it out and called
it a D# off-the-beat,just wanna know. Also this is my first ever tab so i
apologise if i've done anything wrong! Enjoy! :D

(Verse 2)
There's more here than what we're seeing,
G D
A divine conspiracy,
D# A (*3)
That you, an angel lovely, could somehow fall for me,
G D D# A (*4)
You'll always be love's great martyr,
G D
I'll be the flattered fool,
D# A
And I need you.
Em (*5) G

(Bridge)
On my own I'm only
D#
Half of what I could be
G
I can't do without you
D A (*7)
We are stitched together
D#
And what love has tethered
G
I pray we never undo
D A
(Chorus - Outro)
God gave me you for the ups and downs
G D D# A
God gave me you for the days of doubt
