Love Song Ukulele by Sara Bareilles

Chords with lyrics

Tuning: G C E A (G C E A)

Difficulty: Intermediate

Verse 1:
Gm     Bb
Head under water
   Dm           F
And they tell me to breathe easy for a while
Gm         Bb      Dm   F
The breathing gets harder, even I know that
Gm      Bb           Dm
Made room for me but it's too soon to see
    F
If I'm happy in your hands
Gm     Bb       Dm   F
I'm unusually hard to hold on to
Gm       Am
Blank stares at blank pages
Bb       Am
No easy way to say this
Gm     Am          Bb
You mean well, but you make this hard on me
Chorus:
             Gm
I'm not gonna write you a love song
     C
Cause you asked for it
     F       Bb
Cause you need one, you see
             Gm
I'm not gonna write you a love song
     C
Cause you tell me it's
    F
Make or break in this
     Bb
If you're on your way
       Gm      F
I'm not gonna write you to stay
  Dm                G
If all you have is leaving I'm gonna need a better
     Bb      C      Gm Bb Dm F
Reason to write you a love song today


Verse 2:
Gm      Bb
I learned the hard way
     Dm   F
That they all say things you want to hear
Gm      Bb     Dm    F
And my heavy heart sinks deep down under you and
  Gm
Your twisted words
Bb
Your help just hurts
Dm   F            Gm
You are not what I thought you were
Bb    Dm    F
Hello to high and dry
Gm     Am
Convinced me to please you
Bb      Am
Made me think that I need this too
Gm     Am     Bb
I'm trying to let you hear me as I am
Chorus:
             Gm
             Gm
I'm not gonna write you a love song
     C
Cause you asked for it
     F       Bb
Cause you need one, you see
             Gm
I'm not gonna write you a love song
     C
Cause you tell me it's
    F
Make or break in this
     Bb
If you're on your way
       Gm      F
I'm not gonna write you to stay
  Dm                G
If all you have is leaving I'm gonna need a better
     Bb      C      Gm Bb Dm F
Reason to write you a love song today

Bridge:
Dm Am Bb   F           C
  Promise me that you'll leave the light on
Dm Am   Bb  F         C
  To help me see with daylight, my guide, gone
Dm    A        Bb     C
Cause I believe there's a way you can love me

Because I say


Chorus:
          Gm
I won't write you a love song
     C
Cause you asked for it
     F       Bb
Cause you need one, you see
             Gm
I'm not gonna write you a love song
     C          F
Cause you tell me it's make or break in this
  Bb          Gm
Is that why you wanted a love song
     C
Cause you asked for it
     F       Bb
Cause you need one, you see
             Gm
I'm not gonna write you a love song
     C          F
Cause you tell me it's make or break in this
     Bb
If you're on your way
       Gm      F
I'm not gonna write you to stay
    Dm
If your heart is nowhere in it
    C
I don't want it for a minute
      Dm             G
Babe, I'll walk the seven seas when I believe that

There's a reason to
Bb     C      Gm Bb Dm F
Write you a love song today
