Umbrella

A simple song that sounds great.  For Em you can play 4432 or even 0402 which has a nice ringing quality because of the open strings. You can alternate Bm and Bm7, just play 4222 for Bm and 2222 for Bm6. I think that's Bm6 but I don't give a fiddler's fart. Gsus2 is just G with the bottom string open so 0230. Bsus4 is 4422, just an extra note in B 4322.

Here's the version I like: by Biffy Clyro. Like the way they start with the single strums.

This version is in Am rather than Em but also charming. Coeur De Pirate. Great name. Love the dress too.


      Em
You have my heart

And we'll never be worlds apart
         Bm7 2222
Maybe in magazines

But you'll still be my star
                   Em
Baby cause in the dark

You can't see shiny cars
                    Bm7
And that's when you need me there

With you I'll always share

Because

(Chorus)

C                                  Gsus2 - G
When the sun shines, we’ll shine together
                         Bm
Told you I'll be here forever
                      Em
Said I'll always be a friend
                                        C
Took an oath I'ma stick it out till the end
                                Gsus2
Now that it's raining more than ever
                                Bm
Know that we'll still have each other
                          Em
You can stand under my umbrella

You can stand under my umbrella

(Verse)
      Em
These fancy things, will never come in between
                  Bm7
You're part of my entity, here for Infinity
                 Em
When the war has took it's part

When the world has dealt it's cards
       Bm7
If the hand is hard, together we'll mend your heart

Because

(Chorus)
C                                  Gsus2
When the sun shines, we’ll shine together
                         Bm
Told you I'll be here forever
                      Em
Said I'll always be a friend
                                        C
Took an oath I'ma stick it out till the end
                                Gsus2
Now that it's raining more than ever
                                Bm
Know that we'll still have each other
                          Em
You can stand under my umbrella
                          C
You can stand under my umbrella
              Gsus2
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
            Bm
Under my umbrella
              Em
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
            C
Under my umbrella
              Gsus2
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
            Bm
Under my umbrella
              Em
(Ella ella eh eh eh eh eh eh)

(Bridge)

F
You can run into my arms
C
It's okay don't be alarmed
     Gsus2
Come into me

(There's no distance in between our love)
F
So go on let the rain pour
C                        Bsus4
I'll be all you need and more

Because

(Chorus)

C                                  Gsus2 - G
When the sun shines, we’ll shine together
                         Bm
Told you I'll be here forever
                      Em
Said I'll always be a friend
                                        C
Took an oath I'ma stick it out till the end
                                Gsus2 (0230)
Now that it's raining more than ever
                                Bm
Know that we'll still have each other
                          Em
You can stand under my umbrella
                          C
You can stand under my umbrella
              Gsus2
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
            Bm
Under my umbrella
              Em
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
            C
Under my umbrella

(Ella ella eh eh eh)

Under my umbrella

(Ella ella eh eh eh eh eh eh)
