This song is in standard tuning.
This song is AMAZING. Thank you Keith Urban.
Try to integrate the bar chords, especially during the chorus because you can imitate
sound gaps better than when using open chords. First time poster, so be nice.
Also, Thank You to all the Service Men and Women out there.

Bm Em
All I saw was smoke and fire
D
I didnt feel a thing
A G
But suddenly I was rising higher
Bm Em D
And I felt like I just made, the biggest mistake
A Em
When I thought about my unborn child
A Em
When I thought about my wife, the answer rang out clear,
A
from somewhere up above
Em G
No greater gift of man, than to lay down his life for love
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/k/keith_urban/for_you_crd.html ]
G D
And I wonder,
A D G D
would I give my life,
A D G D
Could I make that sacrifice
A D G
When it came down to it could I take just a little blood,
A
Yes I would for you.
Bm Em
Baby you dont understand,
D
I dont understand it all myself,
A G
But theres a brother on my left, and another on my right.
Bm Em
And in his pockets just like mine,
D A G
Hes got a photograph, and theyre waiting for him back home.
A
And its weighing on my mind.
Em A
I dont want to be a hero, I don’t want to die,
Em G
But right here in the moment, you dont think twice.
G D
And I wonder,
A D G D
would I give my life,
A D G D
Could I make that sacrifice
A D G
When it came down to it could I take just a little blood,
A
Yes I would for you.
A Em
You dont think about right.
A
You dont think about wrong.
Em D
You just do what you gotta do to defend your own.
A Em D
And I would do the same, for you.
