Intro: Gb Ebm Gb B Gb

Verse 1:
 Gb
Both my parents knew you weren't the one
    Ebm
And yeah, we tried our best to prove them wrong
      Gb
But I think that they were right
                                          B      Gb
We were two kids in this life just having fun
Gb
Why'd it take ten months to see it clear?
Ebm
If I'd saw it coming, I would have disappeared
         Gb
I'm just thinking to myself, thought our path led somewhere else
                    B   Gb
But now we're here

Pre-Chorus:
        B
If it's perfect on paper
     Db
Then why do I feel like?

Chorus:
Gb
I love the idea of you more than I love you
           Ebm                       Bm
And that's hard, so hard to hear
   Db
We checked off all the boxes
Gb
But that's not what love is
           B                  Db
And that's hard, it's hard to hear

Post-Chorus:
               Gb   Bbm    Ebm
Even harder to say
Gbm       Abm
harder to say
           B                    Gb
So hard to say, it's so hard to say

Verse 2:
Gb
I know you're confused, I feel the same
Ebm
You're still in the dark and I'm the blame
            Db
And I can't stand to see you cry
                                          B       Db
If you don't wanna say goodbye then look away
    Gb
But someday you'll be in another's arms
    Ebm
And you'll be happy that I broke your heart
       Db
Maybe then you might forgive me
                                   B        Db
For not taking you with me, it's a start

Pre-Chorus:
        B
If it's perfect on paper
     Db
Then why do I feel like?

Chorus:
Gb
I love the idea of you more than I love you
           Ebm                       Bm
And that's hard, so hard to hear
   Db
We checked off all the boxes
Gb
But that's not what love is
           B                  Db
And that's hard, it's hard to hear

Post-Chorus:
               Gb   Bbm    Ebm
Even harder to say
Gbm       Abm
harder to say
           B                    Gb
So hard to say, it's so hard to say

Use D and A use the strumming pattern DUDU

SMILE

Oh my gosh! this is such a good song:) i found that using D instead of Dsus2 and A instead of Asus2 sounds really good:) Have a good day!

sunsunsun

keep the transpose on 0 and it sounds great but for a more unique and much lower pitched sound, try -4 with no capo! has a really cool sound that I loved, makes it more dark sounding!

Gabbi

Use D and A For the verses use DUDU and for the chorus use DDU UDU

Anna Banu

Is it just me, or does this just not sound right at all?

Gabbi

do DDU UDU it sounds super cool!

Clnnkoie

I use D and Am instead of Dsus2 and Asus2. They are easier to use and it sounds better in my opinion. Also, I use a pick pattern of 2-3-4-3. Hope this helps anyone!!! <3
