TAB by:  T.Jay Tipps  
 
Hello, everyone.  This is my first TAB, so I wanted it to be a good  
one.  This is probably one of the most in-depth TABs you will find on  
the net.  I chose Gary Allan's smash, "It Would be You." 
I love this song!

VERSE 1-RHYTHM AND LEAD 
D                    C                        D           G  
It's hard describing a heartache, aw cause it's a one of a kind thing. 
          C           D                  G  
A serious injury, and a whole lot of endless pain. 
            G C                      D B C  
If it was a storm , I'd compare it to a hurricane. 
                    D  
Oh, it's even got a name. 
 
CHORUS-RHYTHM AND LEAD 
G                           G 
If it was a drink, it would be a strong one. 
G                           C 
If it was a sad song, it would be a long one. 
G                                        C 
If it was a color, it would be deep, deep, blue. 
G                                                 D  
But if we're talking about a heartache, it would be you.

If it was a full moon, it would be a total eclipse. 
            G                  C             D  
If it was a tidal wave, it would sink a thousand ships. 
            G                   C             D  
If it was a blizzard, it would be record-breaking cold. 
            C G                         D           
If it was a lie, then it'd be the biggest story you've ever told.

And that's it...this song is one of my favorites, so I just had to tab  
it. 
It's not a difficult song, if you listen to it and practice to get the  
timing and pulls down perfect.  Have fun!
