@L ya I’ve been begging my parents to buy me one I think I’m gonna get one for Christmas but that’s forever away but I’ve taught myself to play guitar ukulele and little bit of piano so I’m really excited to get an electric guitar and try to learn this song
I’ve been begging my parents to get me an electric guitar for Christmas and this is my entire recommended page lol i literally cannot wait until Christmas
@@ollie277 ya I asked my parents for a fender and my dad just said ok and headed to his computer I feel bad abt the price cause I’ve never asked for something so expensive lol
this is SO well done, Emma! I've been trying to make my own recording of the instrumental parts in recording software, and that small tempo pause at the start of bar 42 is throwing the whole thing off (since the timing basically stops/pauses for half a measure or so). You are the first person I've seen that showed it in the tab....huge help in sorting out how to time it all out. So thank you!!!
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed the cover :) and yeah, the tempo was definitely a challenge for this one, had to basically go bar by bar in my DAW to get a click track that would be accurate (and then had to do the same thing with the recording of the tabs). So yeah, definitely not easy haha.
@@emmamercer5658 Oh my gosh, I am struggling with the EXACT same thing, Emma. I can't find the right tempo on a click track to save my life, or it just organically changes based on how she recorded it.....and every tab I have seen just doesn't seem to have the correct tempo or even close - yours is simply spot-on tho!!! Question, for the second half of the song, does it stay consistently at 80BPM and 6/8? At least that part I can program into my DAW cleanly! :) Thanks again for this incredible cover, I am so thrilled to see how you figured this out! Simply fantastic!
@@tombock336 the first part of the song does change tepmo the entire way through - they definitely didn't use a click track. What I did was always count 4 beats which would make one bar, select that part of the song and then used a function where it would assign the part of the song I selected a tempo which would equal to 4 beats. It's really tedious but the only way to do this unless your DAW has a good enough tempo mapping function. And yes, I do believe the second part is consistent with its tempo. I don't really see how they could've recorded that without a click track. And yeah, no problem :)
When I'm away from you I'm happier than ever Wish I could explain it better I wish it wasn't true [Verse 1] Give me a day or two to think of something clever To write myself a letter To tell me what to do, mm-mm Do you read my interviews? Or do you skip my avenue? When you said you were passin' through Was I even on your way? I knew when I asked you to (When I asked you to) Be cool about what I was tellin' you You'd do the opposite of what you said you'd do (What you said you'd do) And I'd end up more afraid Don't say it isn't fair You clearly werеn't aware that you made me misеrable So if you really wanna know [Chorus] When I'm away from you (When I'm away from you) I'm happier than ever (Happier than ever) Wish I could explain it better (Wish I could explain it better) I wish it wasn't true, mm-mm [Verse 2] You call me again, drunk in your Benz Drivin' home under the influence You scared me to death, but I'm wastin' my breath 'Cause you only listen to your fuckin' friends I don't relate to you I don't relate to you, no 'Cause I'd never treat me this shitty You made me hate this city [Verse 3] And I don't talk shit about you on the internet Never told anyone anything bad 'Cause that shit's embarrassing, you were my everything And all that you did was make me fuckin' sad So don't waste the time I don't have And don't try to make me feel bad I could talk about every time that you showed up on time But I'd have an empty line 'cause you never did Never paid any mind to my mother or friends So I shut 'em all out for you 'cause I was a kid [Outro] You ruined everything good Always said you were misunderstood Made all my moments your own Just fuckin' leave me alone (Fuck you) (Ah) (Goddamn) (Ah) (Fuck you) (Fuck you)
This is the best cover iv ever heard and iv heard like hundreds, tysm for the tab things also im getting an electric guitar for Christmas this year and im so excited to learn this , i have an acoustic already so im going to learn the first verse first then when i get electric ill try the second verse:) tysm for this , YOUR AMAZING ❤❤
Omg, your cover is so amazing!! I really enjoyed this cover and am using it to learn lol, but I am not used to reading tabs much so I am a bit confused on what chords are played in the second half.
I really love this video. very helpful especially for beginners and want to play the piece! Thank you so much for making this and sharing your talent❤️
This is great! I'm learning it right now actually. Would you be able to share the settings you had for your amp? I really like the tone you have. I'm quite new and struggling to dial it in
thanks! i have no idea what the settings were to be honest haha, I just turn up the gain to max and everything on the eq set to max as well. The sound you get from your guitar will greatly vary based off what kind of guitar and amp you have
I was able to do it!!!!! After hours of practicing 😅 -I still have to improve my speed in some phrases but I’m excited! Thank you very much!! Music heals ❤
I'm more of a metal guy but I have to learn the song to play along with a friend of mine in my school talent show, she asked me to because I have an electric and she doesn't lol anyway that was amazing, thank you for putting the tabs on it :) also sorry if my English is bad lol

Thank you for making the tabs!
You are very welcome 😊
Gonna try to learn this. This was amazing 👍👍😍
When I'm away from you
I'm happier than ever
Wish I could explain it better
I wish it wasn't true
[Verse 1]
Give me a day or two to think of something clever
To write myself a letter
To tell me what to do, mm-mm
Do you read my interviews?
Or do you skip my avenue?
When you said you were passin' through
Was I even on your way?
I knew when I asked you to (When I asked you to)
Be cool about what I was tellin' you
You'd do the opposite of what you said you'd do (What you said you'd do)
And I'd end up more afraid
Don't say it isn't fair
You clearly werеn't aware that you made me misеrable
So if you really wanna know
[Chorus]
When I'm away from you (When I'm away from you)
I'm happier than ever (Happier than ever)
Wish I could explain it better (Wish I could explain it better)
I wish it wasn't true, mm-mm
[Verse 2]
You call me again, drunk in your Benz
Drivin' home under the influence
You scared me to death, but I'm wastin' my breath
'Cause you only listen to your fuckin' friends
I don't relate to you
I don't relate to you, no
'Cause I'd never treat me this shitty
You made me hate this city
[Verse 3]
And I don't talk shit about you on the internet
Never told anyone anything bad
'Cause that shit's embarrassing, you were my everything
And all that you did was make me fuckin' sad
So don't waste the time I don't have
And don't try to make me feel bad
I could talk about every time that you showed up on time
But I'd have an empty line 'cause you never did
Never paid any mind to my mother or friends
So I shut 'em all out for you 'cause I was a kid
[Outro]
You ruined everything good
Always said you were misunderstood
Made all my moments your own
Just fuckin' leave me alone (Fuck you)
(Ah)
(Goddamn)
(Ah)
(Fuck you)
(Fuck you)
