As I Was Saying by Jack Johnson
As I Was Saying
Standard tuning. NOTE: Barre chords sound the BEST here. You can still use the regular
chords but barre chords create that Jack Johnson sound we all love.
Capo 1st fret
[Intro]
F#m
[Verse 1]
A Em
As I was saying
D
Just before you left the room
A
Before I assumed
G D A
That you might not come around
A Em
As I was saying
D
Just after I took my foot from
A G
My mouth and put it back
D A
On the ground
[Chorus]
D E
I don't want to disappoint you
A D
I don't want to disappear
Bm E A
From here or now or you
[Verse 2]
A Em
This is worth saving
D
Because the sum of us is more than us
A
If you add us up
G D A
Then subtract my lack of sleep
A Em
My mind feels crazy
D
When all these thoughts come rushing in
A
Should I be trusting them
G D A
Or only let them be?
[Chorus]
D E
I don't want to disappoint you
A D
I don't want to disappear
Bm E A
From here or now or you
[Bridge]
Bm E
Is it just a matter of time?
Bm C#
Or does it even matter at all?
D A Bm
Because even if this story should fall
D A
From the sky to the sea
A Bm
If I should fall
D F#m
Would you fall down with me?
E
Would you fall?
[Verse 3]
A Em
Found my foundation
D
It was underneath me all along
A
On this path I'm on,
G D A
Now I never walk alone
A Em
I've been erasing
D
Rewrote the second half like this
A
So my protagonist
G D A
Might find his way back home
[Chorus]
D E
I don't want to disappoint you
A D
I don't want to disappear
Bm E A
From here or now or you
Bm E A
No not from here or now or you

version 2
Standard tuning. You can put a capo on the first fret and remove the sharps and play it accordingly,
but Jack likes to play bar chords, so no capo is needed.
