Intro: Am Am Dm E7 Am She paints her fingers with a close precision Am He starts to notice empty bottles of gin Dm E7 And takes a moment to assess the sin Am She's paid for Am a lonely speaker in a conversation Am Her words are spinning through his ears again Dm E7 Am There's nothing wrong with just a taste of what you've paid for F C Say what you mean E7 Tell me I'm right Am G F And let the sun rain down on me C Give me a sign E7 I want to believe F Woah, Mona Lisa, Am G You're guaranteed to run this town F Dm Woah, Mona Lisa, Am E7 I'd pay to see you frown Am Am Dm E7 Am He senses something, call it desperation Am Another dollar, another day Dm E7 And if she had the proper words to say, Am She would tell him But she'd have nothing left to sell him Am F C Say what you mean E7 Tell me I'm right Am G F And let the sun rain down on me C Give me a sign E7 I want to believe F Woah, Mona Lisa, Am G You're guaranteed to run this town F Dm Woah, Mona Lisa, Am E7 I'd pay to see you frown Bridge: Am C E7 Mona Lisa, wear me out Am C E7 Pleased to please Ya Am C E7 Mona Lisa, wear me out ( Strum only once ) F C Say what you mean E7 Tell me I'm right Am G F And let the sun rain down on me C Give me a sign E7 I want to believe F Woah, Mona Lisa, Am G You're guaranteed to run this town F Dm Woah, Mona Lisa, Am E7 I'd pay to see you frown F Say what you mean Am Tell me I'm right G F And let the sun rain down on me C Give me a sign E7 I want to believe Am Am Dm E7 Am There's nothing wrong with just a taste of what you've paid for This arrangement is its contributor’s own interpretation, shared for private study, education and non-commercial use.

6 ukulele chords used in "The Ballad Of Mona Lisa" by Panic! at the Disco: Am, C, Dm, E7, F and G
this is off-topic but how i remember the strings are “Gray Cats Eat Ass”
hiya emo pals! i used -duu-duu-ddu- the whole song except for single down strums and then i did the original transposion and i just put a capo on the first fret
after “i’d pay to see you frown” you can strum open and it sounds like the brendon does at the end of the line
mary did it
on the last mona lisa wear me out I like to add a c It sounds very nice
I’ve looked on other websites and so far this one is the best sounding for any of you who are curious 🙂
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH <33333
It sounds really dark and cool a half step down (I actually tuned my ukulele, I didn’t transpose, but the concept fits)
PSA
instead of “-spinning through his ears again”, it’s actually “-swimming through his ears again”
I’m the second line of the verse id suggest playing Fmaj rather than a second line of Am7
after the am at the end of the verses, if you strum down on e7 three times it sounds right
I personally like to use DDDU instead of DDU UDU.
After “I’d pay to see you frown” you can pluck the 4th string while holding a C chord and it sounds really cool
After the crescendo of the Am before the pre chorus, i usually strum Am7 twice because it sounds like the song 🙂
-5 but B7 I change to CM
For the strumming pattern I use ‘DDU UDU’
what’s the strumming pattern for it?
Awesome song!!! It’s very easy to learn!!!
+5 is easiest! Hope that helps
