I corrected the key of 'Tis the damn season and changed the key of Daylight so that it fits too.
Verse notes
Bb: play the 1st inversion and add a C at the top (Left hand = Bb, Right hand = D F Bb C)
Am/C: (left hand = C, right hand = C E A) You are only playing this for one beat.
Chorus notes:
One of the cool things in this version is she is often keeping the high C through the chords,
so in the chorus:
F - (right hand = C F A C)
Dm7 - (right hand D F A C) F/E - Move the left hand to an E octave for one beat.
D/C - (left hand hand C, right hand D F or D F D)
Bridge note:
I think shes play C F C in her right hand and moving the the F to G, A and back to G.
Transistion 1 note:
Keep playing all the chords in here with a high C, eg
Gm - Right hand D G Bb C
Bb - Right hand D F Bb C
Transition 2 note:
Taylor changes the final outro/chorus of 'Tis the damn season to the chords and pattern of Daylight.
[Intro]
Bb C Am/C C
[Verse 1]
Bb C Am/C C If I wanted to know who you were hanging with while I was gone, I would've asked you Bb C Am/C C It's the kind of cold, fogs up windshield glass, but I felt it when I passed you Bb C Am/C C There's an ache in you, put there by the ache in me Bb C But if it's all the same to you, it's the same to me......
[Chorus]
F
So we could call it even You could call me "babe" for the weekend
F/E Dm7 'Tis the damn season, write this down
I'm stayin' at my parents' house
And the road not taken looks real good now
C D/C And it always leads to you and my hometown
[Verse 2]
Bb C Am/C C I parked my car right between the Methodist, and the school that used to be ours Bb C Am/C C The holidays linger like bad perfume, you can run, but only so far Bb C Am/C C I escaped it too, remember how you watched me leave Bb C But if it's okay with you, it's okay with me
[Chorus]
F
So we could call it even You could call me "babe" for the weekend
F/E Dm7 'Tis the damn season, write this down
I'm stayin' at my parents' house
And the road not taken looks real good now
F Time flies, messy as the mud on your truck tires F/E Dm7 Now I'm missing your smile, hear me out
We could just ride around
And the road not taken looks real good now
C D/C And it always leads to you and my hometown
[Bridge]
F Dm7 Sleep in half the day just for old times' sake C I won't ask you to wait if you don't ask me to stay F So I'll go back to L.A. and the so-called friends
Who'll write books about me if I ever make it
Dm7
And wonder about the only soulWho can tell which smiles I'm fakin'
C Am/C C And the heart I know I'm breakin' is my own Dm C To leave the warmest bed I've ever known
(Transition 1)
F C I don't wanna look at anything else now that I saw you Gm Bb I don't wanna think of anything else now that I thought of you F C I've been sleeping so long in a 20-year dark night Gm Bb And now I see daylight, I only see daylight F C I only see daylight, daylight, daylight, daylight Gm Bb I only see daylight, daylight, daylight, daylight
[Bridge]
F C And I can still see it all in my mind Gm All of you, all of me intertwined Bb I once believed love would be black and white, but it's golden F C And I can still see it all in my head Gm Back and forth from New York sneaking in bed Bb I once believed love would be burning red, but it's golden F C Like daylight, daylight Gm Bb Like daylight, daylight
(Transition 2)
[Chorus]
F We could call it even C You could call me "babe" for the weekend Gm Bb 'Tis the damn season. 'Tis the damn season F So we could call it even C You could call me "babe" for the weekend Gm 'Tis the damn season, write this down
I'm stayin' at my parents' house
Bb And the road not taken looks real good now F C Time flies, messy as the mud on your truck tires Gm Now I'm missing your smile, hear me out
We could just ride around
Bb
And the road not taken looks real good nowBb
F C Cos I only see daylight, daylight Gm Bb I only see daylight, daylight
F
