C
I never knew perfection till
  C  
I heard you speak, and now it kills me
F
Just to hear you say the simple things
    C
Now waking up is hard to do
     C  
And sleeping is impossible too
F                             Bb
Everything is reminding me of you
Bb
What can I do?

C               C  
It’s not right, not OK
Am      Am7            D7 
Say the words that you say
            F
Maybe we’re better off this way?
C            C        
I’m not fine, I’m in pain
Am          Am7     D7
It’s harder everyday
             F
Maybe we’re better off this way?
It’s better that we break…

   C 
a fool to let you slip away
   C  
I chase you just to hear you say
       F
You’re scared and that you think that I’m insane

     C
The city look so nice from here
C  
Pity I can’t see it clearly
F                                    Bb
While you’re standing there, it disappears
It disappears

C               C  
It’s not right, not OK
Am      Am7            D7 
Say the words that you say
            F
Maybe we’re better off this way?
C            C        
I’m not fine, I’m in pain
Am          Am7     D7
It’s harder everyday
             F
Maybe we’re better off this way?
It’s better that we break…

F                     G
Saw you sitting all alone
         F                 G  
You’re fragile and you’re cold, but that’s all right
F
Life these days is getting rough
         G
They’ve knocked you down and beat you up
          Am                   G
But it’s just a rollercoaster anyway, yeah

C               C  
It’s not right, not OK
Am      Am7            D7 
Say the words that you say
            F
Maybe we’re better off this way?
C            C        
I’m not fine, I’m in pain
Am          Am7     D7
It’s harder everyday
             F
Maybe we’re better off this way?

C               C  
It’s not right, not OK
Am      Am7            D7 
Say the words that you say
            F
Maybe we’re better off this way?
C            C        
I’m not fine, I’m in pain
Am          Am7     D7
It’s harder everyday
             F
Maybe we’re better off this way?
It’s better that we break…baby

I think it sounds better if when switching between the Em7 and Edim7 you only move the finger on the C string.

Love this song! It sounds great

Blue Ukulele

God I love the Beatles! They were a truly great band. No one can replace music like that, no matter how good they are…
(Yes, my music choices are firmly stuck in the 60s/70s and I am proud of that)

Stacey

What’s the best strum pattern for this

richreuku

faithybb

I literally made an entire arrangement for myself and i’ll probably never preform it 🙁

Alison

I like +3 because I can’t reach all the low notes lol

john

change the Edim7 to an Em6, and the C in the chorus to a Cmaj7.
