---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Beside You - Marianas Trench ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Nightlace Tuning: Standard Version 1 was tabbed almost correctly, I just wanted to add the lyrics and the bridge. The strumming pattern for the chords is really easy to figure out, and you can play the chorus open stringed or not. Verse 1 ....... When your tears are spent on your last pretense And your tired eyes refuse to close and sleep in your defense When it's in your spine like you've walked for miles e|------------------------------------------------| B|------------------------------------------------| G|-----9-----------8-----------9-----------9------| D|---9---9---9---9---9---9---9---9---9---9---9---9| x3 (Throughout verse) A|-7-------7---6-------6---0-------0---0-------0--| E|------------------------------------------------| And the only thing you want is just to be still for a while e|------------------------------------------------| B|------------------------------------------------| G|-----9-----------8-----------9-----9-----9------| D|---9---9---9---9---9---9---9---9-----9-----9----| A|-7-------7---6-------6---0-------0-----0-----0--| E|------------------------------------------------| During the vocals you can either continue playing the tab for the verse or the chords for the chorus.
