Аккорды Joni Mitchell - If

OPEN TUNING:  C-G-Bb-Eb-F-Bb
6th string DOWN to C
5th string DOWN to G
4th string DOWN to Bb (or A#)
3rd string DOWN to Eb (or D#)
2nd string DOWN to F
1st string DOWN to Bb (or A#)

Using a chromatic tuner will maybe help

As the strings will be quite slack, it requires a real
lightness of touch to your strum.
You may also have to re-check the tuning more regularly.

IMPORTANT NOTE:  Please IGNORE ANY CHORD BOXES the website
might automatically suggest, and just use the typed
voicings shown below, this tuning was not in the database,
so any chord boxes will display in standard tuning only:

Cm11 = 000000                Ab9 = x55555
Cm11 = x-x-x-*12-*12-*12     Bb9 = x77777
Cm11 = 0-0-0-12-12-12        N.C.= No chords

The 9th chords also have an additional sus4th,
which I haven't named in the tab for neatness of formatting

In the intro and breaks improvise around this kind of riff:

      Cm11
Bb |------*12--|-----------|-(12)(12)--|--0--------|
F  |------*12--|-----------|--12--12---|--0--------|
Eb |------*12--|-----------|--12--12---|--0--------|
Bb |-----------|-----------|--12--12---|--0--------|
G  |-----------|-----------|-----------|--0--------|
C  |--0--------|--0---0-0--|-----------|--0--------|

[Verse 1]
   Cm11
If you can keep your head,
               Ab9        Bb9
While, all a - bout you,    ...people are losing theirs,
            Cm11
And blaming you,
           Ab9            Bb9              Cm11
If you can trust yourself  ...when every - body doubts you,
    Ab9            Bb9                Cm11
And make allowance for their doubting too

[Verse 2]
   Cm11                               Ab9
If you can wait, and not get tired of waiting,
         Bb9                                   Cm11
And when lied about, stand tall, don't deal in lies,
         Ab9   Bb9                   Cm11
And when hated   ...don't give in to hating back,
              Ab9           Bb9                Cm11
Don't need to look so good,   ...don't need to talk too wise

[Verse 3]
   Cm11                                    Ab9
If you can dream, and not make dreams your master,
           Bb9                               Cm11
If you can thin, and not make intellect your game,
           Ab9       Bb9               Cm11
If you can meet with triumph and dis - aster,
Ab9                           Bb9      Cm11
     And treat those two im - posters    ...just the same

[Verse 4
Cm11                                  Ab9
      If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew...
      Bb9                    Cm11
...To serve you after all of them are gone,
    Ab9         Bb9                Cm11
And so hold on    ...when there is nothing in you,
                Ab9         Bb9            Cm11
Nothing but the will that's telling you to   ...hold on,
     Cm11
Hold on!

[Verse 5]
Cm11                                          Ab9
     If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken,
Bb9                                   Cm11
     Twisted and misconstrued by some smug fool,
              Ab9         Bb9                Cm11
Or watch your life's work  ...torn apart and broken down,
    Ab9                   Bb9       Cm11
And stoop to build again    ...with worn out tools

[Verse 6]
Cm11                                        Ab9
      If you can draw a crowd and keep your virtue,
             Bb9                       Cm11
Or walk with Kings and keep the common touch,
           Ab9      Bb9                    Cm11
If neither enemies   ...nor loving friends  ...can hurt you,
             Ab9             Bb9   Cm11
If everybody counts with you,          ...but none too much

[Verse 7]
Cm11                                   Ab9
      If you can fill the journey of a minute...
Bb9                                     Cm11
   ...With sixty seconds worth of won - der and delight,
         Ab9             Bb9             Cm11
Then the Earth is yours,  ...and every - thing that's in it,
    Ab9             Bb9         Cm11
But more than that   ...I know     ...you'll be alright,
               Cm11
You'll be al - right
