Alternative, maybe easier, version:
  • Transpose the chords 3 half steps down [ -3 ]
  • Put a capo on fret 3 to stay in the same key

UKULELE CHORDS

Intro: Eb Eb
 
Eb
Forgotten what I used to be
 
But I think I'm happier now
        Cm
Somehow
 
Though I'm still far from home
          Ab
I'm making a new one just on my own
    Eb
And
 
Think I've been thinking too much
 
About what I miss and the things that I've lost
    Cm
But
 
Now if I'm down on my luck
 
It's only a phone call to get back up
    Eb
But
 
Maybe I'm better this way
 
I've never replaced all the things you'd say
    Cm
But
               Fm
Sometimes I'm feeling the same
     Abm
I wish I could see someone else's face
    Eb
So
 
When you're just stuck on my mind
 
I picture you o-nc-e and then move on and smile
    Cm
But
 
Lately, it's harder to find
                         Ab
Will this ever be alright?
Eb          Eb
I still get butterflies
                        Ab
When you're inside my mind
              Ab
And I only wonder if you get the same
 
Or if it's only mine
        Eb
'Cause I still get butterflies
Eb                 Cm
Almost all of the time
 
But I think it's alright
   -nc- 
'Cause you love butterflies
   -nc- 
Right?
 Eb
Sometimes I see a reminder again
 
I try not to dwell but it's hard when you miss
     Ab
them
 
And yeah, I know that will fade
 
It hurts to think I just don't know the date
    Eb
And
 
When I can finally be fine
 
And not have you round in my head or my life
   Ab
I
 
Won't try to change it or cry
          -nc- 
I'll remember of the time
 
Eb
I still get butterflies
                           Ab
When you're inside my mind
 
And I only wonder if you get the same
 
Or if it's only mine
        Eb
'Cause I still get butterflies
                      Ab
Almost all of the time
 
But I think it's alright
    -nc- 
'Cause you love butterflies
       Eb
Right?
                                   Ab
Butterflies
                                   Ab
Butterflies
 
You love butterflies
       Eb
Right?
                           Eb
Butterflies
                          Eb
Butterflies
Eb
Though I could be wrong
      Ab
It feels so good to believe
        Eb
And though I'm not in love
     Ab                Gb
I wish you'd fly to me
 
Outro:
   Bb  Eb

Soph C.

Try to watch the ukulele teacher’s tutorial of this on YouTube, it’s way easier. He used the chords C-Bb-F-C for the verses and G-Bb-C for the chorus. Also, the strumming pattern he used was DDUUD 2x for each chord (for the verse) but for the chorus the chord C will only be the one repeated twice.

Samuel

Just for anyone wondering, the riff is not in the same key as the chords. To fix this transpose it to -2 🙂

Midabsentia

If you want to play the song in the default chords, I think I may have figured out the beginning of an appropriate riff. Please correct me if I’m wrong.

xA|—-0——10—9—-|
xE|———2———|
xC|–2———9—–9-|
xG|——0————-|

bella

do -2 to match the chords with the riff, works better for singing 🙂

Stranger things rules

I LOVE THIS SONG

Izzy

Beautiful, thank you very much. I only started playing a month ago and I sound amazing already with this!

nadie

thanks the song transposed to -2 sounds even better <3

bayeeejay

playing G F C instead of G Bb C in -2 sounds better to me.

Jelle

If you want it to sound like exactly the same you have to transpose it down -2 and put a capo on the first fret

Sweetchild fan

Do you put the kapo in -2 or just playin like this ?

thanks 😉
