Tuning: E A D G B E
So, In the studio recording they play the same guitar part over and over in the same pattern. The amount of
time the chords take is different. The C and the A# take about half the time G does. And after every single A#
played the stop strumming and he continues singing. Just letting y'all know. Oh and if ya listen to the song
you really can get the rhythm in his voice down.
[Intro]
Oh, Glisten up
Young man, there's a—there's a Cyoung man, he writes stories
BbHe's a writer, a little writer boy
GHe falls in love with a girl, girl already has a boyfriend
GShe kinda loves him back, but not really
They're just really good friends, and that's fine
He understands, it's rational
[Verse 1]
GHi, what's your name? How are you? How’s your life?
COh, you got a man? Are you in A#love? If so, what type?
GIs it just platonic, strictly just as friends
COr the type that ties you two together 'Bbtil tomorrow’s end?
GIf it is, disregard every time I call you pretty
CThough it’s meant sincerely, Bbit’s just my imagination drifting
GBrush me off like the dirt on Jay-Z’s shoulders
CSo I fall to ground, collect myself and Bbget ready to take over your heart
Or at least your spare time
[Chorus]
GAnd I love the thought of being with you
COr maybe it’s the thought of Bbnot being so alone!
GHey, the second one’s way sadder than the first one
CBut I don’t Bbknow
GI love the thought of being with you
COr maybe it’s the thought of Bbnot being so alone!
GThe second one’s way sadder than the first one
CBut I don’t Bbknow
[Verse 2]
GWe should go and get a friggin' cup of coffee
And I’ll act friendly and I Cwon’t pull any stunts
BbBut I’m a little stunt puller from birth
GSo I don’t know what to tell you
If I try to Cconfess my love Bbfor... scones
GI just wanna say something real quick, Bbplease shh, listen
BbI love... these scones
GJust the diversity between the selection they have here
The blueberry, the raspberry, strawberry, pumpkin
Even which is Cbasically a friggin' squash
How they gonna make a Bbscone out of a freaking squash?!
GOh, wow, wow
That shit blows my mind
CThat's Elon Musk just in his Bblittle lab cooking up, Gbaby
But what were you talking about?
Oh yeah, your boyfriend made you mad the other day?
C Bb (No struming until the next chorus)
What was he saying? Oh, what do I think? Hm...
He was being mean at that part—point?
But I'm sure he's gonna turn around at some... point, as well
And
[Chorus]
GI love the thought of being with you
COr maybe it’s the thought of Bbnot being so alone!
GThe second one’s way sadder than the first one
CBut I don’t Bbknow
GI love the thought of being with you, whoa, whoa, whoa
COr maybe it’s the thought of Bbnot being so alone!
GShit, I love being—CI love being loved, Bbbut
Don't like crying on the phone
[Verse 3]
GHi, wassup?
Yeah, what’s going on?
COh yeah, she told me a lot about Bbyou, yeah, uh-huh
GIt’s so great you’re doing all of those things
CYou should keep doing all of them BbI think
GOh yeah, my name’s Hobo Johnson
People like to say I'm a rapper, I'm actually not
CI produced this myself, I'm hella Bbfucking proud of it
GBut yeah, she like—she's so nice
She was so nice and Ccared about me, no one else did
Literally, I don't think I've ever Bbfelt love before that
She's a peach... scone
She's a peach scone, yes
And
[Outro]
GI love the thought of being with her
CI just really hope Bbthat she doesn't get hurt, y'know?
GThey say it takes two years to Ccome back down to Earth
BbFrom that lovely place that you’ve been, GI heard it’s so nice
CGood for you guys, BbI'm—I'm glad (Being so alone!)
GAnd if you find someone who loves you for who you are
CKeep loving 'em, man
Bb'Cause that shit happens like, once in a Glifetime, y'know?
And who am I to get in the way of someone livingC their lifetBbime Y'know?
GAnd I hope you're doing really well, I haven't talked to you in a while
CBut uh, I found someone else who really Bbloves me for who I am
G (No more strumming)
But I don't call them enough, and that's why they moved away
I'm gonna call them right now, she wants me to call her
Okay, bye
