Forever


This is Gabe Bondoc’s rendition of Forever by Chris Brown. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=62vEOOKQ5pU < Gabe’s cover Please not that these chords are just what I think they are, please correct me if I’m wrong. C9 G C A e|-----3------3------0------0------------------------------------| B|-----3------3------3------0------------------------------------| G|-----0------0------0------5------------------------------------| D|-----2------0------4------5------------------------------------| A|-----3------2------5------x------------------------------------| E|------------3------x------5------------------------------------| The 3rd chord is a C chord moved up 2 frets, don’t know what it’s called. The 4th chord is an A chord, or some sort of variation of it. Gabe starts off by plucking each string, and then going into a more up tempo beat. He starts of kind of like this. e|--------3---------3---------0--------0-------------------------| B|--------3---------3---------3--------0-------------------------| G|------0---------0---------0--------5---------------------------| D|----2---------0---------4--------5-----------------------------| A|--3---------2---------5----------------------------------------| E|-------------------------------5-------------------------------| Pluck the last 2 strings each chord together. For the G chord alternate from hitting the A and E string. So first hit the A and not the E. When Gabe sings the first line of the verse, he strums the C variation once. And then proceeds to pluck the A variation. He then raises the tempo and plucks each chord twice except for the A which he lingers on for longer. He uses the same chords throughout the song. In the last part of the song he slows it down and finger picks. I don’t know exactly how he does it, so just make it up as you go along ;D practice some improv. Verse 1 C9 G It's you and me moving C A At the speed of light into eternity C9 G C A Tonight is the night to join me in the middle of ecstasy. C9 G C A Feel the melody in the rhythm of the music around you, around you C9 G C I'm gonna take you there, I'm gonna take you there So don't be scared A I'm right here baby C9 G We can go anywhere, go anywhere C But first it's your chance, A Take my hand come with me [Chorus:] C9 G C It's like I've waited my whole life for this one night A It's gonna be me you and the dance floor C9 G 'cause we've only got one night C Double your pleasure A Double your fun and dance C9 Forever (ever, ever) G Forever (ever, ever) C Forever (ever, ever) A Forever girl forever C9 Forever (ever, ever) G Forever (ever, ever) C Forever (ever, ever) A Forever on the dance floor Verse 2 (same as Verse 1) Feels like we're on another level Feels like our loves intertwined, We can be two rebels breaking the rules me and you, you and I All you got to do is watch me Look what I can do with my feet Baby feel the beat inside, I'm driving you can take the front seat Just need you to trust me Oh ah oh It's like! [Chorus] Bridge [finger picked] same basic progression as verse 1. It's a long way down, We're so high off the ground, Sending for an angel to bring me your heart Girl, where did you come from? Got me so undone, Gazing in your eyes got me singing what a beautiful lady No "if"s, "and"s or "maybe"s I'm releasing my heart and it's feeling amazing There's no one else that matters you love me and I won't let you fall girl Let you fall girl oh Ah ah ye yea I won't let you fall, let you fall Let you fall oh oh Ye yea Yea yea It's Like! [Chorus]
