let my baby stay // mac demarco - cover

it wasn't intentional but the thunderstorm was aptly fitting
* chord progression is Bm7, Bm6, A, and then E7.

[@nikolai9646]

"i was made to love her, been working at it. half of my life, i've been an addict. and she's been good to me." this song in particular really gets me everytime. 5 years ago i met the love of my life. it started off as a simple, short-lived conversation and the rest was history. couple years back i had a rough history with meth and i would constantly lash out on everyone. i've made irrational choices and i don't really blame my girl for leaving me back then - it had to be done and i had to get better. so i went to rehab, opened myself to God and began to forgive myself for my shortcomings. at the end of the day we're all human, we mess up and make mistakes. and although i haven't really forgiven myself completely just yet, i make up through the good deeds i do today, it's cool to be kind and it costs nothing to put a little heart on everything you do. all i did was close my eyes, take a deep breath and let fate do the rest. november of the year 2021, we started talking again. on that month i finally managed to recollect myself, to finally have the guts and apologize for all the things i've done that had affected her in so many levels. that girl took beatings in my name, earned a silent treatment from her mother and was frowned upon for months, i felt so terrible about myself because i know that it should have been me taking all of that. but with that said, by the time of writing this, we're back together and i do my best to become better each day. i compensate every single day, promising her and myself that everything that has happened before will never happen again- that no matter how far i get pushed to the edge, i wouldn't retaliate, but rather make her feel loved and appreciated. God, i love her. this song brought so much memories in my life that are so hard to put to words; i was an addict and she's been good to me despite all of that. i was made to love her, and loving her is all that i'm gonna do no matter what. i love her, so much -- i just do. God, i love her so much. if you're reading this, always remember that i will love you even when the world tells me not to. you will always have me. and forgive me for breaking the rules of life and fate itself, but i adore you so. only death can stop me from loving you, and i hope you don't think ill of me when i say that. you'll always have me. always 🌙

Sadly you missed the 1 beautiful second of her vid

[@mabeel99]

The way she says "I was made to love her" actually feels so personal.

[@KianaOk-zt7rq]

This song really hits me. But your cover really captures the emotions within it. I'm going through a very hard point in my life right now and my girlfriend is fighting leukemia for the second time and we don't know how much longer she has. The lyrics "let my baby stay" capture my exact thoughts hoping she'll be alright and that she'll be able to stay alive. I know the actual song has a different purpose but my life has given it another meaning. Listening to this makes me feel like I'm being comforted over all the unfairness the world offers, even though I know that may not have been the intent of the cover or the song I felt like for once I was understood. Even as weird as that sounds I really appreciate that you made this cover and I listen to it all the time to help me out.

[@aniakowalska9721]

Everything will be alright love

[@mercurialmagictrees]

[@ImAFuckingDuck]

Kylie Bentley She doesn't capture the same emotion at all! Marco's version is very dull compared to her cover. There is a reason why it has been such a popular target of covers.

[@Not_what_it_used_to_be]

on guitar, the easiest way would be E-2 B-3 G-2 D-0 A-2 E-X Playing the high E string is optional, the chord doesnt need a fifth to serve its function but you can do it if you think it sounds good.
