A Better Version taby ukulele według 36 questions (Chwyty barytonu)

Eb
My life started when I went for jog
Eb
And spotted you in the park
Eb
Sitting with a dog
Eb    Ab                                     Eb
So I stopped and asked, "can I pet your dog?"
 
Eb
And so there we were, me and this golden retriever, basking in the abundance of sun Austin provides.
Eb
And suddenly, you blurted out
 
G              Ab
"This isn't my dog, actually
G           Ab
It's my friend's dog, Sheila
G                        Ab
I'm taking care of her while he's away
G           Ab           Eb
She's on a lot of medication"
 
Eb
And I laughed, and you laughed
Eb
Saying you didn't wanna be found out when you asked me to coffee
Eb
That there was no dog
Ab         Eb
I said yes and you said, "I'm Jase. What's your name?"
 
Eb
And I heard the perfect opportunity
Eb
To be someone else entirely
Eb
Free from my history
Eb
For one single cup of coffee
G       Ab      Eb
I would be Natalie
 
Eb
Obviously that's not how it went down.
Eb
One cup of coffee turned into two bottles of wine,
Eb
three desserts and staying up talking until four in the morning.
Eb
Too late to backpedal. Too good not to keep going
 
 
[CHORUS]
Eb           Ab
It felt like my life, but a better version
Eb           Db   Ab
With you in my life, I was a better person
Eb
I heard music in the words you were saying
                       Ab
Melodies with no band playing
                              Eb
For the first time, I was in love
        Ab                  Eb
And I loved who I was with you
 
 
[VERSE]
Eb
All the mundane shit I used to hate
Eb
Like recycling plastic and flossing every day
Eb
Making breakfast, paying bills
Eb
Watering the plants on our window sill
      Ab                                  Eb
Was invigorated with your sense of wonder
 
Eb
Pillow talk, afternoon walks
Eb
Holding hands in the parking lot of Home Depot
Eb
Dealing with inevitable misfortunes that were barely manageable
Eb          Ab                                            Eb
Like that time we accidentally hit a squirrel with your car
 
Eb
That was an unfortunate anecdote
Eb
Do you know what I mean?
 
 
[CHORUS]
Eb              Ab
It felt like my life, but a better version
Eb               Ab
With you in my life, I was a better person
         Eb
I heard music in the words you were saying
Eb
Melodies with no band playing
Ab                             Eb
For the first time, I was in love
        Ab                  Eb
And I loved who I was with you
 
Eb
My parents finally tracked me down
Eb
After years of jumping from town to town
      G  Ab         Eb
They found you and me
 
Eb
Men in suits at our front door
Eb
Asking you about Judith Ford
       G  Ab         Eb
And I knew, instantly
 
Ab                   G
They say before you die
                  Ab                      G
Your whole life flashes before your very eyes
          Ab
Well, it didn't the first time
     Eb          Ab
But this time I heard each and every lie
 
Ab
I'd ever told you
    G                                    Ab
I tried to cling to the life I'd made together with you
                    G
So I did the only thing I knew how to
                Ab
I denied who I was, because
 
Eb                Ab
I wanted to keep my life
N.C
But the better version
Eb             F Ab
Natalie, your wife
N.C
She was a better person
 
Eb
I memorized your voice
Eb
And how you say goodbye
          Ab
But you never said goodbye
Ab
You never said goodbye
       Eb    Ebmaj7    Ab
And I held on to our life
                    Eb
And who I was with you
Eb
Who I was with you
Eb
Who I was with you
