Matchbox 20 – I’ll Believe you when
Tabbed by Chris Judge

Standard tuning

Listen to the song for the pace of the strumming, very definite beat to it

INTRO:
   A                       Bm                        A

     A
I've tried so many times to tell you how I feel
           Bm
But you're far too disbelieving, are you trying to get even with me
A
Maybe once or twice I wasn't fair I wasn't nice
             Bm
But now I've got myself together, when I promise to be better

You say


Chorus:
A
Whoa, I'll believe you when
A
Whoa, I'll believe you when
Bm                                           A            Bm
Whoa, When everything you say don't turn out wrong
A

Whoa, I'll believe you when
A
Whoa, I'll believe you when
Bm                                           A            Bm
Whoa, When everything you say don't turn out wrong

        A
I could call you everyday, send presents by the score
            Bm
And I could send you pretty flowers, have them waiting at your door
        A
I could write up in the sky, 'Forgive me I apologize'
           Bm
Still if I went through every measure, with my promise to be better

You'd say

Chorus

G                                           Bm
 There's nothing you can say that I haven't tried
                                       G
Nothing I can do will ever change your mind
                                     A          Bm    A    Bm
Maybe I'd do better, if I told somebody else
