Subject: Re: REQ : CRD file of Mariah Carey "Without You"
This is by far not the complete arrangement, but maybe it will help:
--------------------------------------------------------------------
As usual, all guitars are tuned down one half step.
Intro:
(acoustic guitar)
eb:---------------------------------------------------------------------|
Bb:-3--5-----------------------------------------------------3--5h6h5---|
Gb:-4-----------------------------------------------2--4--5-------------|
Db:----------4--5--4--2--0--2--------------2--4--5----------------------|
Ab:----------------------------3-----0--3-------------------------------|
Eb:---------------------------------------------------------------------|
eb:--------------------------------| I think there are some other
Bb:-3---5--------------------------| acoustic guitars in the background
Gb:--------------------------------| here, but this guitar plays the
Db:---------4--5--4--2--4--2-------| main melody of the intro.
Ab:-----------------------------3--|
Eb:--------------------------------|
(electric with massive sustain)
eb:------------------------------------------------------|
Bb:---7b(9)~----5h7--5-----3h5--3------------------------|
Gb:---7b(9)~----5h7--5-----4h5--4--4--5b(7)--5--4--0--2--|
Db:--------------------------------5--7b(9)--7--5--------|
Ab:------------------------------------------------------|
Eb:------------------------------------------------------|
And here is the main riff played throughout the song
and slightly varied in some places. You've probably
already figured this out.
(acoustic guitar)
Am G D
eb:----------------------3--------2--------2--|
Bb:--0h1--------1-----------3--------3--------|
Gb:-------2--------2-----------0--------2-----|
Db:----------2--------2-----------0-----------|
Ab:--0----------------------------------------|
Eb:----------------------3--------------------|
I also know incomplete versions of some other songs on that album, if
you're intersted.

I don't want a lot for Christmas
G/B
there is just one thing I need
C
I don't care about the presents
Cm
underneath the Christmas tree
G Bm C/E D
I just want you for my own
G Bm C/E D
more than you could ever know
C
Make my wish come true...
C D G Em C D
All I want for Christmas is you
I don't want a lot for Christmas
there is just one thing I need
I don't care about the presents
underneath the Christmas tree
I don't need to hang my stocking
there upon the fireplace
Santa Claus won't make me happy
with a toy on Christmas day
I just want you for my own
more than you could ever know
Make my wish come true...
All I want for Christmas is you, you, baby
I won't ask for much this Christmas
I won't even wish for snow
I'm just gonna keep on waiting
underneath the mistletoe
I won't even make a list and send it
to the North Pole for Saint Nick
I won't even stay awake to
hear those magic reindeer click
'Cause I just want you here tonight
holding on to me so tight
What more can I do, baby
All I want for Christmas is you, you
B G
All the lights are shining so brightly everywhere
B G
And the sound of children laughter fills the air
Cm G Em
and everyone is singing I hear those sleigh bells swinging
C
Santa won't you bring me the one I really need
D
won't you please bring my baby to me
Oh I don't want a lot for Christmas
this is all I'm asking for
I just want to see baby
standing right outside my door
Oh I just want him for my own
more than you could ever know
Make my wish come true,
all I want for Christmas is you...
all I want for Christmas is you...
