Hey, I'm Brandi Carlile, and I'm going to attempt to teach you how to play my song the story
It's um not very hard, and it doesn't change much, but it's in the [G] key or voicing really of a and
It [F#] just starts out picking with an [A] a chord
to an a sus and back to an a and
Then begins the the all down stroke strumming pattern and it goes from a to e
[E]
[E] to f-sharp minor
[F#m]
[D] TD

[E] D
[F#m] F sharp minor
[E] [D] D

[E] E
then ends on a [A] and that's a

so again, that's just a
[E] to eat
[F#m] F sharp minor [D] to D
[A] a

across my face
Tell you the [F#] story
Who I am?
so [G#m] many stories
Where I've been and [E] now I got to where I am
