Daniella - John Butler Trio
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: DarrenJag

Tuning: John probably uses CGCGCE
Scale: Aeolian C/Dorian F
In this spot I'd usually put some huge wall of fanboy text, but I'm sure you've read it all before.
"These guys are teh best!!!11!1!" Instead, I'll just cut to the chase.
Verse/Chorus: Cm G D# A#
Prechorus: Fm D# A# Fm
I'm not gonna place the chords all over the lyrics, once you've listened a couple of times it's sort
of obvious where the chords are played.
Don't worry if you struggle because it seems almost random to start with. You'll get the hang of it.
If playing in Open C, powerchords (simple barres) sound good: try alternating the C5s on 0th and 12th
frets to give a little extra spice.
Anyways, with no further ado:

You light me [Cm]up little girl, like the 4[G]th of July,
I love you [D#]more than every single star man i[A#]n the sky,

Nearly knocked them off their feet, they could not hardly stand,
The same day I asked you be my wife to be,
I said, m-m-marry me,

Give you the proper respect you deserve every day and night,
Give you good, good lovin' 'til the morning light,
And I promise we will never, ever, ever fight, yeah right yeah,
