Anyone familiar with Julia Nunes and her work will know that one of her most
used instruments is the Ukulele. This particular album features both Ukulele and
Acoustic Guitar pieces. Here I will clear up how to mimic the Ukulele sound on
an acoustic or classical Guitar, for anyone without a Ukulele instrument.
The best way to immitate the sound of a Ukulele on an acoustic or classical
Guitar
is to place a Capo on the 5th fret. You now have a Ukulele! This works because,
much like the Guitar standard tuning is EADGBe, the Ukulele standard tuning is
GCEA, as there are only four strings. Now by playing just the highest four
strings
(the original xxDGBe strings on the Guitar) this is the easiest and closest way
to
mimic the sound of a standard tuned Ukulele.
This not only means that you have an impromptu Ukulele, but you can now finger
the chords identically as you would if you were actually playing a Ukulele. In
this
online guide, I will show the Ukulele fingerings for each chord used, taking into
consideration the Capo on the 5th fret. If you have a Ukulele, feel free to
follow
along with the same fingerings, only ignore the Guitar Capo. With that said,
enjoy
this little online guide.

VERSE 1:
C Cmaj7
Well, I'm lying here on the floor just like the man on the yellow cone
C7 F
I guess the floor was wet so I'm cold and I'm all alone
C Cmaj7
'Cause I was running down the stairs I didn't think that I could fall
C7 F
But gravity took over me, and I crumpled like a ball
CHORUS 1:
C C/A# F F7
But if you would pick me up I'd be obliged
C C/A# F F7
Dust me off and push my hair aside
VERSE 2:
C Cmaj7
Well, it's later than I thought - and I thought it was pretty late
C7 F
I guess everyone's asleep; wonder why I'm still awake?
C Cmaj7
I could fall asleep right here with my hands under my head
C7 F
There's a body in the stairwell, call the cops; I think she's dead
CHORUS 2:
C C/A# F F7
But if you would pick me up I'd be obliged
C C/A# F F7
Dust me off and push my hair aside

VERSE 2:
C Cmaj7
Well, I can't lie - perhaps I didn't trip
C7 F
I've been having troubles lately, and I got something to admit
C Cmaj7
See, I was standing at the top thinking about the Earth
C7 F N/C
It's been so hard to just keep living, so I thought it might be worth it if...

Dust me off and push my hair aside

VERSE 1:
C Em9
It'd be easy to sit here and wallow in hell
B7 Em
Or I could suck it up and get over myself
C Em9
You see all hearts are broken; it's no big deal
B7 Em
I've been hurt, but I'm sure you all know how that feels
VERSE 2:
C Em9 B7 Em
We all go through, so why we do it again?

Is it even worth the awkward anger of trying to be friends?

CHORUS 1:

It doesn't get easier

That should be me
Em Em9 C Em
It doesn't get easier
C Em9
I'm dying to leave
VERSE 3:
C Em9
I've been feeling surprisingly lonely these days
B7 Em
I guess substitutes have an aftertaste
C Em9 B7 Em
And I hate you for making me feel I could easily be replaced
VERSE 4:
C Em9
They say that the coffin can't confine the soul
B7 Em
I'm burying secrets you should have told

So I'll say, "Fuck your heaven, this is only a goal"
B7 Em
You want to achieve, so you can be whole
BRIDGE:
C Em9 B7 Em
We've yelled, we've lied, and blatantly tried
C Em9 B7 Em
To hurt the other one, that's not fair - but truthfully, I don't care

You cried and apologized, I won't sympathize with you

Winter was always my least favorite season
C Em9
Should I give up? Is it too late to be saved?
B7 Em
Am I forever frozen in this lonely grave?
OUTRO:
C Em9
So if I agree, I'm not trying to be mean
B7 Em
It's just cold, hard facts
C Em9
Spare me your sugar coats
B7 Em
I could have kept you warmer than that...

My ear can't hold a pencil, and my mind can't keep a thought

A Bm11 E7sus4 E5
We've only got a friend to lose - this sucks, I think you know it too
A Bm11 E7sus4 E5
The thrill of the chase caught up with me, they paid me back karmically
A Bm11 E7sus4 E5
Either I can't stand them or they don't want me; what do you think it means?
CHORUS 2:
A Bm11 E7sus4 E5
I'm going out

A Bm11 E7sus4 E5
I knew it had to happen soon, just sucks it had to be with you
A Bm11 E7sus4 E5
The songs that I once sang for you, I still sing them though the meaning's new
A Bm11 E7sus4 E5
Roles reversed and then press play, can't think of any thing to say
A Bm11 E7sus4 E5
But how many times can one heart break?
CHORUS 3:
A Bm11 E7sus4 E5
I'm going out
A Bm11 E7sus4 E5
