JEREMY CAMP - OVERCOME CHORDS

Tuning:

Song: Overcome Artists Version*: Jeremy Camp Key: A, Standard Tuning *This is originally a Desperation Band song from what I understand, but this would be "Jeremy Camp's Version." I actually never heard this song until recently, getting ready for Easter. So original Credit for Words and Music goes to Jon Egan. Chords Used: D F#m E A F#m7 E|--2---2---0---0---2---| B|--3---2---0---2---2---| G|--2---2---1---2---2---| D|--0---4---2---2---2---| A|--x---4---2---0---4---| E|--x---2---0---0---2---| I don't particularly tab, but the intro seemed fairly easy. I won't be getting specific with measures and bars, these are just the fingers; listen to the song for timing: E|--10-9-------------------------10-9---------------------------9~~-----| B|-------7~~---9~~---10~~-------------7~~---9~~---10~-------------------| G|-------------------------------------------------------9~~------------| D|----------------------------------------------------------------------| A|----------------------------------------------------------------------| E|----------------------------------------------------------------------| [Intro] (Instrumental) D - F#m - E - A [Verse 1]

[Bridge]***

^DWe will over^Acome, by the ^F#m7blood of the Lamb And the ^Eword of our testi^Dmony, every^Aone over^Ecome

***repeat four times, each time getting progressively more intense. I use the word intense,because it doesn't necessarily mean "louder". The 3rd and 4th will probably be the same volume-wise, but strumming may alternate to a more "downward-strums only, power chord" feel on the 4th time, as opposed to the soft strum pattern of the 1st rotation. [Chorus] **** **** Though the version Jeremy does keeps the music going through the bridge to the chorus, my church (and my preference) is to play this chorus with the same effect as the 1st chorus. In other words, play that A-Chord, but only strum it once, while letting it ring out, and come in just before "glory;" however, keep the intensity when you come in on "glory." This has a powerful effect as a transition, as the intensity of the bridge continues to magnify through the chorus. In essence, you don't let the feel and emotion that goes on through the bridge to die out in the following chorus. Besides, your drummer will love that moment where he gets to hit a few toms just before the rest of the band comes in. We all know... a happy drummer, is a drummer that *might* focus and keep the beat accurate :) [Tag] (You overcame, repeated throughout the tag chords): Same chords and rhythm as the chorus, but just once: A - F#m - E - D - A
