https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Y6UG8lXGF4 has a guitar tutorial by Sondre Lerche, but this is quick and
dirty for uke. Easy chords on uke and such. Ignore 7s and 9s if it helps.
| = dividers indicating equal lengths of time. Useful for gauging rhythm, if'n you need it.
If not needed, ignore it.
Also, fair warning, chords may seem to be placed a tad off sometimes, but that's in an effort to
maintain the syncopation of the lyrics.
[Intro]
|G|G|
[Verse 1]
|Gmaj7 Cmaj7 F9|
You’re not at all who I thought I was before
|Gmaj7 Cmaj7 F9|
So who’s the man standing on your bedroom floor?
|Bm7 Em7
Calmly putting on his shoes
Bm7 B7 Cmaj7|
Softly shutting tight the door
|F9 G F9 Em7|
Crossing an ocean to be by the sea
|Cm Gm Dsus4 D7|
Leaving you behind cause he’s leaving with me
[Chorus 1]
|Gmaj7 Cmaj7 Gmaj7 Cmaj7|
You are not who I thought
|Gmaj7 D Em(7) A7 Cm|
You are not who I thought I was when I met you
|Gmaj7 Cmaj7 Gmaj7 Cmaj7|
So who am I to you now?
|Gmaj7 D Em(7) A9 Cm(maj7)|
Who am I now that I cannot forget you?
|Gmaj7 F9 Gmaj7 Dsus4 D7|
You are not who I thought I was
[Verse 2]
|Gmaj7 Cmaj7 F9|
This guy’s disguise, dressing to repress his core
|Gmaj7 Cmaj7 F9|
Whose are the feet tiptoeing across the floor?
|Bm7 Em7
He’s taking off his shirt and pants
Bm7 B7 Cmaj7|
And sliding underneath the sheets
|F9 G F9 Em7|
Laying down the law of what dreams can be dreamed
|Cm Gm Dsus4 D7|
I’m sound asleep while you’re sleeping with him
[Chorus 2]
|Gmaj7 Cmaj7 Gmaj7 Cmaj7|
You are not who I thought
|Gmaj7 D Em(7) A7 Cm|
You are not who I thought I was when I met you
|Gmaj7 Cmaj7 Gmaj7 Cmaj7|
So who am I to you now?
|Gmaj7 D Em(7) A9 Cm(maj7)|
Who am I now that I cannot forget you?
|Gmaj7 F9 Gmaj7 N.C./D|
You are not who I thought I was
[Outro]
|Gmaj7 Cmaj7 F9|
I was
|Gmaj7 Cmaj7 F9|
[I was] I was
|Gmaj7 Cmaj7 F9|
[I was, I...] I was
|Gmaj7 Cmaj7 F9|
Was Was
|Gmaj7 Cmaj7 F9|
Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh!
|Gmaj7 Cmaj7 F9|
Oh!
|G|
[Other vocal ornamentation in the outro is cool too. If you check the spectacular live version at
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-9bJRTZ_eZ8 you can hear that he mostly leaves it out. This is just a
transcription of what I heard in the official audio at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-9bJRTZ_eZ8)
