Intro: Gb B Ebm B Gb Stuck in the jet wash B Bad trip I couldn't get off Ebm And maybe I bit off more than I could chew B And overhead of the aqua blue Gb Fall to your knees bring on the rapture B Blessed be the boys time can't capture Ebm On film or between the sheets B I always fall from your window to the pitch black streets B And with the black banners raised Ebm As the crooked smiles fade B Ebm Former heroes who quit too late B Ebm Db Just wanna fill up the trophy case again Chorus: Gb B And in the end, I'd do it all again Ebm I think you're my best friend B Don't you know that the kids aren't all, kids aren't alright Gb B I'll be yours, when it rains it pours Ebm Stay thirsty I'll be fine B Don't you know that the kids aren't all, kids aren't alright Gb I'm not passive but aggressive B Take note, it's not impressive Ebm Empty your sadness like you're dumping your purse B On my bedroom floor, we put your curse in reverse Gb And it's our time now if you want to to be B More the war like the carnival bears set free Ebm And your love is anemic and I can't believe B That you couldn't see it coming from me B Ebm And I still feel that rush in my veins B Ebm It twists my head just a bit too thin B Ebm Db All those people in those old photographs I've seen are dead Chorus: Gb B And in the end, I'd do it all again Ebm I think you're my best friend B Don't you know that the kids aren't all, kids aren't alright Gb B I'll be yours, when it rains it pours Ebm Stay thirsty I'll be fine B Don't you know that the kids aren't all, kids aren't alright Ebm Gb B And sometimes I just want to sit around, and gaze at my shoes yeah Ebm Gb B And let your dirty sadness fill me up, just like a balloon Chorus: Gb B And in the end, I'd do it all again Ebm I think you're my best friend B Don't you know that the kids aren't all, kids aren't alright Gb B I'll be yours, when it rains it pours Ebm Stay thirsty I'll be fine B Don't you know that the kids aren't all, kids aren't alright This arrangement is its contributor’s own interpretation, shared for private study, education and non-commercial use.

4 ukulele chords used in "The Kids Aren’t Alright" by Fall Out Boy: B, Db, Ebm and Gb
Hey just letting you guys know that it’s “Stay thirsty like before” not “Stay thirsty I’ll be fine.” (:
this is just one of those songs that isn’t sad but you cry because it’s just so good
-6 is easier to sing along to and play
C h e s t p a i n
Really easy alternative: capo the first fret, and play Bb, C, Dm, and F.
For instance, the chorus will be:
F Bb
And in the end, I’d do it all again
Dm
I think you’re my best friend
Bb
Don’t you know that the kids aren’t all, kids aren’t alright
F Bb
I’ll be yours, when it rains it pours
Dm
Stay thirsty I’ll be fine
Bb
Don’t you know that the kids aren’t all, kids aren’t alright
@CSProfoundDino try using the stumming pattern:
DD UUDU UDU UDU (not fast but quickly)
my vocal chords are ripped but i enjoyed playing it anyway lmao
The correct lyrics are “And I’ll be yours.
When it rains it pours.
Stay thirsty like before.”, thank you for the chords 🙂
for a really comfortable low-ish high-ish mix, i go with -5. it’s definitely not the easiest chord wise, but it’s very easy going on the voice. 🙂
Does someone know the proper strum pattern? I use DD UUDU and it works fine, but it doesn’t sound completely right.
-4
Love this song! but much better at +1
much easier at +1
for an easier version put a capo on the first fret and Bb C Dm F instead of B Db Ebm Gb
I used it 4 half steps down, it’s much easier like that. Also in the chorus, the lyrics are “I’m yours, when it rains it pours, stay thirsty like before”
lyrics in the second verse are “Maul the world like carnival bear set free”
these are great! thanks 😀
If you’re going up a step, I like to end on G.
Down a half step is much easier.
Go up +1 and it is much easier to play and to sing!
Thanks so much! Been waiting for more ABAP arrangements!
