Verse:
Db               Fm               Eb
Waiting for the time to pass you by
Db                 Fm                      Eb
Hope the winds of change will change your mind
Db              Fm               Eb
I could give a thousand reasons why

And I know you, and you've got to

Pre-Chorus:
Db                        Fm
Make it on your own, but we don't have to grow up
Eb                   Ab
We can stay forever young
Db                  Fm
Living on my sofa, drinking rum and cola
Eb                     Ab
Underneath the rising sun
Db              Fm               Eb   Ab
I could give a thousand reasons why
           Db    Fm          Eb
But you're going, and you know that

Chorus:
Ab                     Db      Fm
All you have to do is stay a minute
     Eb          Ab
Just take your time
    Db        Fm           Eb
The clock is ticking, so stay
Ab                  Db      Fm
All you have to is wait a second
     Eb        Ab
Your hands on mine
    Db        Fm          Eb
The clock is ticking, so stay

Post-Chorus:
Db Fm Eb Ab

Db Fm Eb Ab
       All you have to do is
Db Fm Eb Ab

Db Fm Eb Ab
       All you have to do is stay

Verse 2:
Db                Fm        Eb
Won't admit what I already know
     Db              Fm              Eb
I've never been the best at letting go
Db             Fm               Eb
I don't wanna spend the night alone
          Db     Fm      Eb
Guess I need you, and I need to

Pre-Chorus:
Db                      Fm
Make it on my own, but I don't wanna grow up
Eb                   Ab
We can stay forever young
Db                  Fm
Living on my sofa, drinking rum and cola
Eb                     Ab
Underneath the rising sun
Db              Fm              Eb     Ab
I could give a million reasons why
           Db    Fm          Eb
But you're going, and you know that

Chorus:
Ab                     Db      Fm
All you have to do is stay a minute

    Db        Fm           Eb
The clock is ticking, so stay
Ab                  Db      Fm
All you have to is wait a second
     Eb        Ab
Your hands on mine
    Db        Fm          Eb
The clock is ticking, so stay

Yeah, the chords should be lined up with the lyrics…

i like to play the uke

Jay the frying pan

hi

Nickname

Hey

Blop

What I do is for the C-G7-C part I go DUUUDU in C then two down strums of G7 and then one down strum of C, also for the chorus I do the DUUUDU for each chord

Jessica

The strumming pattern I use is D D U-U D-U

twenty-one-phans

yeah i use ddu, ud, u

SomeDude

In the chorus where it goes from Am to D7 to F, I like to play the Am as 2-0-0-3, then I just keep my pinky on that third fret and bar the second fret with my middle finger for the D7, then for the F, I play it as 2-0-1-3 chord. It sounds a lot better, but will take some practice. Hope this helps!

Churro

It sounds good if you transpose it to -3 and instead of g7 play e7. Just my opinion though.
