Intro: Eb F Bb Being in this space has made me feel Eb F Bb a bit more small and I'm not quite sure where I'm goin' next Eb F Bb I'll try to use a map but with directions I tend to be bad so Eb F Bb I'll use GPS and pray for the best Verse 1: Eb F Bb Eb I've got so many years to flesh this out and be what I wanna be F Bb But it's confusing to say the least Eb F Bb No perception of time or space or distance or weight Eb And I think I'm going insane F Bb Doomed to graduate and remain a beast Chorus: Eb F F And oh, whoa I just want you to know, whoa Eb F I feel so brain dead next to you Bb Bb It's not like you intended to Eb F Bb Hurt me or make me feel that way Eb F And I'm not tryin' to complain Bb Bb Eb But it just sucks to try and explain F Bb Why I feel like this every day Bridge: 1 2 3 4! Eb F Bb (x2) Eb F Bb Sleepin' through your days and skippin' meals Bb Must sound so unappealing Eb F Bb But I guess it's different when it's the norm Eb F Bb Sinking deeper into whatever this is without a hint of reflection Eb F Bb Can't tell if this is the calm or if this is the storm Verse 2: Eb F Giving everything I've got Bb Eb Equates to about a shower and wakin' up late F Bb When I'm faced with anything I tend to flee Eb F Bb So when I'm thrown into the adult world Eb Where they do things that I never learned how to do F Bb I guess I'll live in a swamp or a tree Chorus: Eb F And oh, I just hope you all know, whoa Eb F Bb I feel so brain dead next to you Bb It's not like you intended to Eb F Bb Hurt me or make me feel that way Eb F And I'm not tryin' to complain Bb Eb But it just sucks to try and explain F Bb Why I feel like this every day Outro: Eb F My brain is surrounded by school kids Bb Who all got their valedictorian cords Eb F Bb While I can't care enough about my 3.8 Bb No matter how hard I try Bb Bb Bb I'm still not trying hard enough to be... great Eb Bb This arrangement is its contributor’s own interpretation, shared for private study, education and non-commercial use.

3 ukulele chords used in "Bugbear" by chloe moriondo: Bb, Eb and F



















Hi ! First off this is one of my favorite songs ever and I was so heckin excited to learn how to play it so THANK U FOR BLESSING MY SOUL :D. Secondly, I found too much space in the parts where you don’t sing while strumming (like after the “1234!” and whatnot) and the first part of the chorus (“I feel so braindead next to you–why I feel like this every day”) and so I put my index on the 1st string 1st fret, middle and ring fingers on 3rd + 4th strings 1st fret, and pinkie on 2nd string 2nd fret. It comes after the Bb. I’ve played it a million times and still can’t get the transition right, but that’s because I’ve been playing for a month haha. But I think it sounds nice ! I just wanted to share it. Hope y’all are having a wonderful day :^)
+2 or -3 for an easier song! i think strumming is dduudu
🙂
Anyone come up with a strum pattern yet?
strum pattern: DU *chunk*, DU *chunk* and for every other stanza for the verse I like to go 1-3-5-3-1 on the A string. Also, Chloe also used the chords “F G C” in her livestream so if you’re having trouble with any chords you can use F instead of Eb, G instead of F, and C instead of Bb 🙂 sensei chloe
For that little riff, I like to do:
-1–3–5–3–1—-
———————–
———————–
———————–
Uh yeah that’s about it- it’s easy once you get used to it 🙂
1. i’m so glad this is on here 2. i’m pretty sure it’s “due to graduate and remain a beast” not “doomed to graduate and remain a beast”
I strum like DU Hold DU hold for the whole thing except for the transition after the chorus into the verse
This sounds great! 😀 good rendition
(string order from closest to you) Eb (E): 4442 F:6664 Bb (b): 4322 C#M: 6544 Em:0432
At “I’m Still not trying hard enough to be great” play C#M, E, Em, and then wait about four seconds and play E
For the chorus I like to do a lil
DD DD DD
Eb F Bb
And I’m not trying to complain
DD DD DD
Eb F Bb
But it just sucks to try and explain
DD DD DDUUDUUDU
Eb F Bb
Why I feel like this every day
(mute)
1234!
i personally do C D G Em C D G. i think it sounds better if you’re singing with it
+1 with the barre chords is the one chloe made on youtube
For the bits with fingerstyle:
A ————————————-
E –3-3—6-6—7-7—7-9-11-9-7
G ————————————-
C ————————————-
In her video she does ddu
could also be Eb F Bb then
1I—1–3–5–3–1
2I—————–
3I—————–
4I—————–
so the end bit in the song sounds better
this is my crushes favorite song I wanna learn it for her but she has a boyfriend. I wanna tell her I like her but she seems so happy I don’t wanna ruin anything for her. what do I do?
