Intro: Bb F Gm Eb Verse: Bb I met you in the dark F You lit me up Gm You made me feel as though Eb I was enough Bb We danced the night away F We drank too much Gm I held your hair back when Eb You were throwing up Pre-chorus: Bb Then you smiled over your shoulder F For a minute, I was stone cold sober Gm Eb I pulled you closer to my chest Bb And you asked me to stay over F I said, I already told ya Gm Eb I think that you should get some rest Chorus: Bb I knew I loved you then F But you'd never know Gm Cause I played it cool when I was Eb Scared of letting go Bb I know I needed you F But I never showed Gm But I wanna stay with you Eb Until we're grey and old Bb F Just say you won't let go Gm Eb Just say you won't let go Verse: Bb I wake you up with some F Breakfast in bed Gm I'll bring you coffee Eb With a kiss on your head Bb And I'll take the kids to school F Wave them goodbye Gm And I'll thank my lucky stars for Eb That night Pre-chorus: Bb When you looked over your shoulder F For a minute, I forget that I'm older Gm Eb I wanna dance with you right now, oh Bb And you look as beautiful as ever F And I swear that everyday you'll get better Gm Eb You make me feel this way somehow Chorus: Bb I'm so in love with you F And I hope you know Gm Darling your love is more than worth its Eb Weight in gold Bb We've come so far my dear F Look how we've grown Gm And I wanna stay with you Eb Until we're grey and old Bb F Just say you won't let go Gm Eb Just say you won't let go Verse: Bb I wanna live with you F Even when we're ghosts Gm Cause you were always there for me Eb When I needed you most Chorus: Bb I'm gonna love you till F My lungs give out Gm I promise till death we part Eb Like in our vows Bb So I wrote this song for you F Now everybody knows Gm Cause it's just you and me Eb Until we're grey and old Outro: Bb F Just say you won't let go Gm Eb Just say you won't let go Bb F Just say you won't let go Gm Eb Oh, just say you won't let go This arrangement is its contributor’s own interpretation, shared for private study, education and non-commercial use.

4 ukulele chords used in "Say You Won’t Let Go" by James Arthur: Bb, Eb, F and Gm
I love playing this even though my dad started hyperventilating on his harmonica
+2 sounds really good if you tune the ukulele a whole step down (F A# D G)
What’s the best strumming pattern for this song?
I play it in +2 so for the intro it’s
__________________________________
_________0___________0___________
___0________0_0__________0______
______0__________0_______________
for the intro and then straight into the C chord.
And I use D D D DU for each chord throughout the whole song.
I also like (idk the correct term) sliding my finger after the Eb to Gm (in one strum)
Like:
Gm Eb-Gm
A——1———1————
E——3———3————
C——2———3/2———
G——————————
There’s a plucking pattern (that’s all on the A string) that’s one octave higher than it is in the song, but here it is (your fingers need to be able to reach far)
A – 1 8 5 – 1 1 8 5 – 1 1 8 5 – 6 6 3 – 53
