Intro: Cmaj7Cm G Verse: Cmaj7 Cm G Cmaj7 Often I am upset that I cannot fall in love but I guess Cm G This avoids the stress of falling out of it Cmaj7 Cm G Cmaj7 Are you tired of me yet? I'm a little sick right now but I swear Cm G When I'm ready I will fly us out of here Chorus: Em C G Ooo oo oo, I'll cut my hair Em C G Ooo oo oo, To make you stare Em C G Ooo oo oo I'll hide my chest Em Cm G And I'll figure out a way to get us out of here Em C G Ooo oo oo x4 Verse: Cmaj7 Cm G Cmaj7 Turn off your porcelain face, I can't really think right now and this place Cm G Has too many colours enough to drive all of us insane Cmaj7 Cm G Are you dead? Sometimes I think I'm dead Cmaj7 Cause I can feel ghosts and ghouls wrapping my head Cm G But I don't wanna fall asleep just yet Chorus: Em C G Ooo oo oo My eyes went dark Em C G Ooo oo oo I don't know where Em C G Ooo oo oo, My pupils are Em Cm G But I'll figure out a way to get us out of here Bridge: Em Get a load of this monster A He doesn't know how to communicate C His mind is in a different place G Bm7 Will everybody please give him a little bit of space Em Get a load of this train wreck A C His hair's a mess and he doesn't know who he is yet Cmaj7 But little do we know, the stars G Welcome him with open arms Chorus: Em C G Ooo oo oo, Time is Em C G Ooo oo oo, Slowly Em C G Ooo oo oo, Tracing his face Em Cm G But strangely he feels at home in this place

Please do not ask for strumming patterns. Sharing online how to literally play a song (i.e. strumming, rhythm and tempo) is not allowed by the MPA (Music Publishers Association) because of copyright issues.
Carefully listen to the song and try to really "feel" the rhythm. Once you get the basics of strumming, I can assure you it'll go real quick. Maybe the strumming guide can help you on your way.

oof i messed up. what i ment was:
cmaj7: D DDU cm: D DDU g: DDU UDU UDU UDU
the strumming pattern i used was DDU UDU
this is such a cute song
I just used down for the entire thing and it worked out pretty well. For the last chorus though I used only 1 down for each note and then at tracing his face and that last line I plucked each string, sounded pretty good.
This song always makes me cry.
best:
Cmaj7: DDDU Cm: DDDU G: DDUDUDDDU over and over
i used dddupu for the strumming <3 and tuned up half a step
for the strumming pattern, I just try my best as possible to make it sound exactly like Robbie’s pattern. this probably didn’t help much, but just go with the flow
for the OOO OOO OOO i use DD DD DD (for the strumming pattern
I use DDUD as the strumming pattern
The strum pattern I use is DDDUD
I use D DDU. It’s the same one that he uses.
what about strumming pattern? im new to playing ukulele lol.
DDUUD
that’s what I use
i use DDUDU
I would listen to the song and listen to how your playing. Then figure out if you need to strum up or down!
i just use down and it sounds like what Robin uses
I personally use DDUUDU
for C use Cmaj7 use DDD-U , for Cm use DDD-U, G use DD-UD-UD-DDU and repeat
IN THE BEGINNING OF THE SONG ON CMAJ DO DD-U, ON CM DO DDD-U, ON G DO DD-UD-UD-DDU.
AFTER THE BEGINNING JUST DO DDD-U, DDD-U, DD-UD-UD-DDU
D-DOWN
U-UP
– IS A SHORT PAUSE BETWEEN
I played both DDUUD and DDUDU and I think it sounds better DDUDU
so..use
DDUDU
I do down the whole time XD
I use DDDUDDDUDDDUUDUUDU for the intro
i use DD UDU
best strumming pattern would be D DDU
i transposed it -2 :) sounds hella good too!
Do the verse chords as cmaj7 cm g
i dont know whats up w this and how they put the chords but it sounds MUcH better if the verse chords played were -cmaj7 cm g- instead of -dbmaj7 dbm ab- sounds more original than the single version
that’s what it’s written as. maybe you transposed it down a half step by accident but the chords written are Cmaj, Cm, G
-2 is easiest chords.
I think he just pitched it down two half steps but it’s a lot more difficult that way lol. But I guess he was compensating for his much lower voice.
Just go to -2 and play Dm, Bb, and F, and for the Bridge, try figuring that on your own
In case anyone wants to sing in Cavetown’s original version, all you can do is go to -2 and play Dm, Bb, and F, and then for the bridge just try to follow along with that
