YOU & ME/lifehouse
This is my own arrangement, a combination of strumming and finger-picking. I play a lot of solo gigs and playing the exact arrangement from the recording is sometimes not full enough for one guitar, also they usually overdub several guitars, so my arrangements attempt to combine all the important elements so the song rings familiar. I also try to incorporate chords that work well with the melody line and add some color and my personal style. Here’s my rendition of Lifehouse’s “You & Me”, something I first worked up a few years ago with my full band, then adapted it for solo.

YOU AND ME/Lifehouse
G Csus2 G/F# G/B Em7 D Csus2
What day is it and in what month this clock never seemed so alive
I can't keep up and I can't back down I've been losing so much time
G Asus4 Csus2
Cause it's you and me and all other people
Em7 G Em7 Dsus4 D
With nothing to do and nothing to lose
G Asus4 Csus2
Cause it's you and me and all other people
Em7 G Em7 Dsus4 D Csus2
And I don't know why I can’t keep my eyes off of you
All of the things that I want to say
Just aren't coming out right
I'm tripping inwards you got my head spinning
I don't know where to go from here
Bm Csus2
Something about you now,
G D Em7
I can't quite figure out.
Asus4 D
Everything she does is beautiful
Bm Cm
Everything she does is right
(repeat chorus)
What day is it, and in what month this clock never seemed so alive
