I got this from the sheet music so it should be accurate, but if you see an error please point it out so that I can correct it. Slashes before a note indicate that the note is to be picked while playing the chord before it. Before It's Over from the musical Dogfight (Pasek and Paul) [Intro] C7sus4/G F(add4) [Verse 1]
C7sus4/G                     F(add4)                C7/E
An awkward girl with her guitar keeping to herself

                Am7                   G     F2
Friday nights alone with the records on her shelf

G2/B               C2
A waitress pouring ginger ale and coke

Am7            Gadd4         F2
Someone you ask out as a joke

C7sus4/G                         Fadd4
I've been that girl who fades away

                   C7/E
Accepting what I've got

                Am7          G         F2
Stuck in what I am and everything I'm not

G2/B                C2
I've only seen this tiny world I'm in

      F/A     G7/B   Cmaj7/E  F(add2)
where I can only be what I've been
[Chorus]
D   / C#     / B              / A
See a world beautiful and strange

         G2 
Spinning off somewhere saying "Meet me there"

D     / C#       / B              / A
Look look how fast it runs away singing 

Bb6/9              F2/A
"Follow close and reach for me"

Gm7     Bbmaj9/F    Eb2     Bb2/D          Dbmaj9
See that you've got so much more for to be

           C2    D(add4)      F2    
Before it's over, 

           C2    D(add4)       F6/9
before it's over.
[Verse 2]
Gm7                       F(add4)
I can't go write another song

                       C7sus4/E
I'm too afraid to play

                             Am7
Or dream how things can change 

               G(add4)       F2
but only see what's in my way

G2/B              C2     C       
Can't go back to what I was before

F2/A     G7/B   C    Cmaj7/E        Fmaj9
now that I can see so much     more
[Chorus]
D      / C#     / B             / A
See a world beautiful and strange

     G2
On a one way track and it won't come back

D   / C#        / B              / A
Look look how fast it runs away 

         Bb6/9            F2/A
singing "Follow close and reach for me"

Gm7       Bmaj9/F    Eb2    Bb2/D    Dbmaj9
See that you've got so much more to be

              Cmaj9   F2/C     C2
Before it's over
[Bridge]
  C2/Bb                       F2/A
I never even knew a world was waiting

C/G                     Am
Somehow something awful made that world appear

Ab2                             C/E
Maybe this sounds crazy but I'm happy that it happened

Am9             Cmaj9/G
Happy that I came

                  Bb2
Happy that I'm here
[Chorus]
     C     / B     / A              / G
I can see a world beautiful and strange

       Fmaj9
Can you see it too?

C       / B         / A           / G
It's so close don't let it get away 

           Ab6/9
There's so much to do

            C   / B    / A   / G  F2
Before it's over
[Outro] Fmaj9 C
