Gm Eb Distant flickering, greener scenery. Gm Dm This weather's bringing it all back again. Gm Eb Great adventures, faces and condensation. Gm Dm I'm going outside to take it all in. Gm Eb You say too late to start, got your heart in a headlock, Gm Dm I don't believe any of it. Gm Eb You say too late to start, with your heart in a headlock, Gm Dm You know you're better than this. Gm We're a different pair, do something out of step. Eb Dm Throw a stranger an unexpected smile Gm With big intentions Still posted at your station. Eb Dm Always on about the day it should have flied. Gm Eb You say too late to start, got your heart in a headlock, Gm Dm I don't believe any of it. Gm Eb You say too late to start, with your heart in a headlock, Gm Dm You know you're better than this. Gm Eb Afraid to start, got your heart in a headlock, Gm Dm I don't believe any of it. Gm Eb You say too late to start, with your heart in a headlock, Gm Dm You know you're better than this. Gm Been walking, you've been hiding, Eb Dm And you look half dead half the time. Gm Monitoring you, like machines do, Eb Dm You've still got it, I'm just keeping an eye Gm Been walking, you've been hiding, Eb Dm And you look half dead half the time. Gm Monitoring you, like machines do, Eb Dm You've still got it, I'm just keeping an eye Gm Gm Eb Gm Dm Gm Eb Gm Dm You know you're better than this Gm Eb You say too late to start, got your heart in a headlock, Gm Dm I don't believe any of it. Gm Eb You say too late to start, with your heart in a headlock, Gm Dm You know you're better than this. Gm Eb Afraid to start, got your heart in a headlock, Gm Dm I don't believe any of it. Gm Eb You say too late to start, with your heart in a headlock, Gm Dm You know you're better than this.

How to play Headlock on ukulele
It runs d u d u. It rolls along at a medium pace of around 120 bpm. This arrangement is in G minor. The chords stay at the rookie level, nothing tricky in there. For easier shapes, shift it down 3 half-steps with the transposer and clip a capo on fret 3 to land back in the same key. Drive straight down-up eighths to match the pulsing synth groove.
