Biography:
Ashley Monroe (born Ashley Lauren Monroe on September 10, 1986, in Knoxville, Tennessee) is an American country music singer-songwriter.
Growing up, her parents played songs by the Eagles and Lynyrd Skynyrd, so her country rock roots started early, and she was already taking piano lesson before she turned seven. At age 11, she won a talent contest in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee (home of Dolly Parton's resort "Dollywood"), singing "I Want to Be a Cowboy's Sweetheart.

This is mostly a piano piece, and Ashley's rhythm guitarist
plays along in E with a capo at the 2nd fret, sticking to
pretty basic chords. You can find my tab of her live acoustic
version at this link:

/a/ashley_monroe/the_blade_-_live_acoustic_crd.htm
For the studio version I've adapted it for a more interesting
acoustic guitar accompaniment with a few more extended chords
like the sus4's and (#11)'s that are suggested by the melody
and keyboards.
CAPO: 4th fret (Sounds in the key of F#)
Chord names and fret positions are relative to the capo:
D = xx0232 A = x02220
Dsus4 = xx0233 Asus4 = x02230

Gadd#11 = 3x0023 Dsus2 = xx0230
