Intro: D G E A ( stop ) D G E You text at three in the morning A D And you misspell my name G E You slept with half my friends on Facebook A D And most of them think you are lame G E You say that with me it's different A D And your not that big of a xxxx G E When you disappear it's cause you're busy A Bm Not 'cause your with some other chick Gbm Bm I know that this may be uncool Gbm A But I want to tell you the truth Chorus: D G My self-esteem's not low enough to date you E A It's close but not quite there D G E Need time to get a little more rejected A D G E Then you and I could make an awesome pair A D G E A ( stop ) A totally awesome pair D G E I seem like your perfect target A D Like I've been lonely for too long G E You think I haven't had xxx in forever A D And I'll admit that you're not wrong G E But I would rather have nothing A D Than this crap, let me reaffirm G E I wouldn't touch your xxxx if I was poisoned A Bm And the antidote was in your sperm Gbm Bm I know that this may be uncool Gbm A But I want to tell you the truth D G My self-esteem's not low enough to date you E A It's pretty close but not quite there D G E Need time to get a little more desperate A D G E Then you and I could make an awesome pair A D G E A ( stop ) A totally awesome pair Bridge: Bm Gbm We could last forever G D You just have to give me time Bm D To learn to deal with xxxxxxxx G A And blatant lies D A But for now... for now D G My self-esteem's not low enough to date you E A It's so close but not quite there D G E Need time to get a little more wasted A D G E Then you and I could make an awesome pair A D G E A ( stop ) A totally awesome pair This arrangement is its contributor’s own interpretation, shared for private study, education and non-commercial use.

6 ukulele chords used in "Self Esteem" by Garfunkel and Oates: A, Bm, D, E, Gbm and G
There are a lot of lyrics wrong + spelling mistakes o.o
“You’ve slept with half […}”
“And you’re not […]”
“And if you disappear it’s ’cause you’re busy
Not ’cause you’re with some other chick”
“I know that this might be uncouth
But I decided to tell you the truth”
-2 is easier and sounds closer to the original to me 🙂
uh most of the lyrics are wrong I think, like when it says need time to get a little more desperate its GIVE ME time to get a little more desperate.
thank you so much for doing this song!!
