You Go Down Smooth by Lake Street Dive
You Go Down Smooth
Tuning: E A D G B E
Tuning: Standard
The little riff the bassist plays is at the bottom, and if you bust it out on guitar it
adds an extra layer of fun. NOTE: I play the first E chord in the "And I..." part barred
on the 4th fret to make a quick transition from C#m, and the following A and E are
played open.
[Intro]
E
[Verse]
E D A E
Would it be true to say that I ordered you
D A E
Or is it you that ordered me?
D A E
I could say you are the only one I see
D A E
But I can't stop at two or three
[Chorus]
A G#m F#m E
And I-I-I am afraid to need you so
D C#m B E
And I-I-I am too sober not to know
Am6 B7
That you may be my problem, not my love
[Verse]
E D A E
Would I be lying if I said you were too sweet
D A E
Though I'm quite sure you've got a bite
D A E
I could say that you were just a special treat
D A E
Though we both know that's not right
[Chorus]
A G#m F#m E
And I-I-I am afraid to need you so
D C#m B E
And I-I-I am too sober not to know
Am6 B7
That you may be my problem, not my love
[Refrain]
(single bass notes until A chord)
E G# C#m F# E A
'Cause you go down smoo-oooo-oooo-oo-oooth
[Verse]
E D A E
Would it be true to say you go to my head
D A E
Or is that sentiment too frank
E D A E
(Ohhh I) I could say you make it sweet to go to bed
E D A E
(Ba da da) But then it's you that breaks the bank
[Chorus]
A G#m F#m E
And I-I-I am afraid to need you so
D C#m B E
And I-I-I am too sober not to know
Am6 B7
That you may be my problem, not my love
[Refrain]
(single bass notes until A chord)
E G# C#m B E A
'Cause you go down smoo-oooo-oooo-oo-oooth
E G# C#m B E A
'Cause you go down smoo-oooo-oooo-ooo-oooth
N.C. A
'Cause you go down smoo-oooo-oooo-ooo-oooth
E G# C#m B E A
'Cause you go down smoo-oooo-oooo-ooo-oooth
[Outro]
