To Make You Feel My Love - Bob Dylan - chords and lyrics - 2 options

Words and music by Bob Dylan and a song that has been sung by many -more recently and most famously by Adele. Here I have two options of chords for you to play along with - both songs requiring a Capo...If stretching your fingers out to play the C#7 chord doesn't appeal to you, then stay with the first option. Have fun...

To Make You Feel My Love - Option 1

Capo on 3

G                                   D
When the rain is blowing in your face
F                                 C
And the whole world is on your case
Cm                        G
I would offer you a warm embrace
A7               D7        G
To make you feel my love
G                                              D
When evening shadows and the stars appear
F                                       C
And there's no one there to dry your tears
Cm                           G
I could hold you for a million years
A7               D7        G
To make you feel my love
C                                           G
I know you haven't made your mind up yet
B7              C                  G
But I would never do you wrong
C                                            G
I've known it from the moment that we met
A7                                            D7
No doubt in my mind where you belong
G                           D
I'd go hungry I'd go black and blue
F                                   C
I'd go crawling down the Avenue
Cm                          G
There's nothing that I wouldn't do
A7               D7        G
To make you feel my love

- G  D  F  C  Cm  G  A7  D7  G

C                                        G
The storms are raging on the rolling sea
B7              C                G
And on the highway of regret
C                                               G
The winds of change are blowing wild and free
A7                                        D7  C/D
You ain't seen nothing like me yet
G                                                   D
I could make you happy make your dreams come true
F                             C
There's nothing that I wouldn't do
Cm                          G
Go to the ends of the earth for you
A7               D7        G
To make you feel my love
Cm                          G
There's nothing that I wouldn't do
A7               D7        G
To make you feel my love


Option 2 below is my preferred choice - but choose the one that YOU'RE comfortable playing - and the one which better suits your voice... Remember - No chord is really too difficult to learn - it's just a matter of a little bit of practice. The difference between being ordinary or extraordinary? - is that LITTLE BIT extra.

To Make You Feel My Love - Option 2

When the rain is blowing in your face

Set Fire To The Rain - Adele (chords and lyrics)



My wife likes this song. She asked if I could play it for her on guitar, so I did...
I'm still in two minds about using F or Dm for some of the parts, so put both options in for you.
Play them both (obviously not at the same time) and see which suits your voice.

 - Then there is the 'issue' of lyrics for the second line of the Bridge...
I wasn't sure whether she sings, "that heart you caught" or "and heard you calling" - but am sure you'll figure it out...

If you're playing along to the YouTube video above, the sound might be a bit distorted, so I'd suggest playing along with it from your cd or mp3


Set Fire To The Rain  by  Adele


CAPO on the 5th

Intro: Am  C  G  F

          Am       C
I let it fall, my heart
             G                       Dm/F
And as it fell, you rose to claim it
          Am                 C
It was dark and I was over
             G                               F
Until you kissed my lips and you saved me
     Am                  C             
My hands, they're strong
          G                          Dm/F
but my knees were far too weak
     Am               C
To stand in your arms
            G                  F
without falling to your feet


                    F                        Am
But there's a side to you that I never knew, never knew
          F                                      Am
All the things you'd say, they were never true, never true
             F                                     G
And the games you play, you would always win, always win


             Am
But I set fire to the rain
                 G
Watched it pour as I touched your face
           Dm/F
Well, it burned while I cried
                                                   Am            G
'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name


           Am       C
When I lay with you
           G               Dm/F
I could stay there, close my eyes
          Am     C
feel you here forever
            G                                         F
You and me together, nothing is (gets) better


                   F                        Am
But there's a side to you that I never knew, never knew
          F                                     Am
All the things you'd say, they were never true, never true
            F                                       G
And the games you'd play, you would always win, always win


             Am
But I set fire to the rain
                 G
Watched it pour as I touched your face
           Dm/F
Well, it burned while I cried
                                                   Am            G
'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name

       Am
I set fire to the rain
                G
And I threw us into the flames
          Dm/F
Well I felt something die
                                                    Am              G
'Cause I knew that that was the last time, the last time


              Am/F                   C
Sometimes I wake up by the door
                     G                                                                Dm/F
And heard you calling (that heart you caught), must be waiting for you
       Am/F                          C
Even now when we're already over
          G                                 F
I can't help myself from looking for ya


             Am
But I set fire to the rain
                 G
Watched it pour as I touched your face
           Dm/F
Well, it burned while I cried
                                                   Am            G
'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name

       Am
I set fire to the rain
            G
And I threw us into the flames
          Dm/F
Well I felt something die
                                                    Am              G
'Cause I knew that that was the last time, the last time


      Am       G           Dm        Am      G 
Oh, oh, Oh, oh,Let it burn, oh, oh, oh oh
         Am     G           Dm     Am  G
Let it bu-uu-urn,Let it bu-u-u-u-u-urn


If you'd like to take some time to let me know how you got on playing this, I'd appreciate a comment.

Adele - Someone Like You - Chords and Lyrics




I quite enjoyed playing this song. 
Nice easy chords and interesting to sing.
If you've got a capo, don't be shy to use it - try going down the frets till the sound matches your voice


I also found two versions on YouTube I rather enjoyed as well, so here they are:


This first one is by Danny Hilton
I reckon the best male version I've heard of this song





and this one by The Draymin - 
with a bit of a techno version to it:








G
I heard
           D
that you're settled down
          Em
that you've found a (girl)guy
        C
and you're married no__w
G
I heard
           D
that your dreams came true
          Em
guess (s)he gave you things
         C
I couldn't give to yo_u

   G
old friend
            D
why you so sh__y
              Em
ain't like you to hold back
   C
or hi_de from (a lie) the light



  Am                         C
I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited
     Em                  D
but I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it
    Am                       C
I’d hoped you'd see my face and that you'd be reminded
       Em            D
that for me it isn't o_ver



G
never mind
     D                Em     C
I’ll find someone like you
       G               D        Em  C
I wish nothing but the best for you too
         G
don't forget me
  D
I beg
    Em         C
I remember you said
             G
sometimes it lasts in love
    D                     Em     C
but sometimes it hurts inste_ad
           
 G
sometimes it lasts in love
    D                     Em     C
but sometimes it hu_rts instead


      G
you'd know
        D
how the time flies
     Em
only yesterday
        C
it was the time of our lives
        G
we were born and raised
    D
in a summer haze
      Em
bound by the surprise
       C
of our glory days



  Am                         C
I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited
     Em                  D
but I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it
    Am                       C
I’d hoped you'd see my face and that you'd be reminded
       Em            D     C    D
that for me it isn't over ye_t

I wish nothing but the best for you too

  D
I beg
    Em         C
I remember you sa_id
             G
sometimes it lasts in love
    D                     Em     C
but sometimes it hurts inste_ad



Am
nothing compares
   C               Em
no worries, or cares, regrets and mistakes
        D
they're memories made
Am
who would have known
  C       Em     D         C       D
how bitterswe_et this would taste



G
never mind
     D                Em     C
I’ll find someone like you
       G               D        Em  C
I wish nothing but the best for you too
