That Wasn t Me
Brandi Carlile
I found a couple of new BCB songs on YouTube and decided to tab them. Here s
the first one. Brandi plays it on piano. The sound quality wasn t very good,
so if the song ends up on their upcoming record it ll probably sound a bit
different than the version on YouTube. And the lyrics may be different.
Standard tuning
No capo, though you can play it in with capo on the 2nd fret.
[Intro]
[Verse]
Hang on, just hang on for a minute
I ve got something to say
I m not asking you to move on or forget it
But these are better days
To be wrong all along and admit it
Itâs not amazing grace
But to be loved like a song you remember
Even when you ve changed
[Chorus]
Tell me
Did I go on a tangent?
Did I lie through my teeth?
Did I cause you to stumble on your feet?
Did I bring shame on my family?
Did it show when I was weak?
Whatever you see, that wasn t me
()
That wasn t me, that wasn t me
[Verse]
When you re lost you will toss every lucky
Coin you ll ever trust
And youâll hide from your god like he never
Turns his back on us
Then youâll fall all the way to the bottom
And land on your own knife
But you ll learn who you are even if it
Doesn t take your life
[Chorus]
Tell me
Did I go on a tangent?
Did I lie through my teeth?
Did I cause you to stumble on your feet?
Did I bring shame on my family?
Did it show when I was weak?
Whatever you see, that wasn t me
That wasn t me, that wasn t me
[Verse]
But I want you to know that you ll never be a-lone
I wanna be-lieve
Do I make myself a blessing
To everyone I meet
When you fall I will get you
On your feet
Do I spend time with my family?
Did it show when I was weak?
When that s what you see, that will be me
That will be me, that will be me
That will be me
