Intro: Cadd9 G D Cadd9 You should've been there, G Should've burst through the door D With that "Baby I'm right here" smile Cadd9 And it would've felt like G D a million little shining stars had just aligned Cadd9 G D And I would've been so happy Cadd9 Christmas lights glisten G I've got my eye on the door D Just waiting for you to walk in Cadd9 But the time is ticking G People ask me how I've been, as I D Comb back through my memory Cadd9 G D How you said you'd be here Cadd9 G D You said you'd, be here Cadd9 G And it was like slow motion D Standing there in my party dress Cadd9 G In red lipstick D With no-one to impress Cadd9 G And they're all laughing D As I'm looking around the room Cadd9 G But there was one thing missing D -once And that was the moment I knew Interlude: Cadd9 G D Cadd9 G D Cadd9 And the hours pass by, G Now I just want to be alone, D But your close friends always seem to know Cadd9 When there's something really wrong G D So they follow me down the hall Cadd9 And there in the bathroom G I try not to fall apart D And the sinking feeling starts Cadd9 G D As I say hopelessly "He said he'd be here" Cadd9 G And it was like slow motion D Standing there in my party dress Cadd9 G In red lipstick D With no-one to impress Cadd9 G And they're all laughing D And asking me about you Cadd9 G But there was one thing missing D And that was the moment I knew Cadd9 What do you say when tears are G Streaming down your face in front of D Everyone you know? Cadd9 And what do you do G When the one who means the most to you D -once Is the one who didn't show? Interlude: Cadd9 G D Cadd9 G D You should've been here, Cadd9 G D And I would've been so happy Cadd9 G And it was like slow motion D Standing there in my party dress Cadd9 G In red lipstick D With no-one to impress Cadd9 G And they're all sitting around me singing D "Happy Birthday To You" Cadd9 G But there was one thing missing D And that was the moment I knew Cadd9 G D Oh, ohh, ohh, ohh, I knew Cadd9 G D Oh, ohh, ohh, ohh, Cadd9 You called me later G And said, "I'm sorry I didn't make it" D And I said, "I'm sorry too" Cadd9 G D.....

3 ukulele chords used in "The Moment I Knew" by Taylor Swift: Cadd9, D and G




















This is a song about me failing my MCA math test. Hope you like it!
I should’ve succeeded
Should’ve burst through the door
With that “guess how I did” smile
And it would’ve felt like
A million little shining stars had just aligned
And I would’ve been so happy
School lights glisten
I’ve got my eye on the door
Just waiting for my score
But the time is ticking
People ask me how I did
As I comb back through my memory
How I promised I could succeed it
I could succeed it
And it was like slow motion
Sitting there with my best friends
In red rain boots
I started to get stressed
And they’re all laughing
Saying look how far I’ve gone
But there was one thing missing
And that was the moment I knew
And the minutes pass by
Now I just wanna be alone
But my close friends always seem to know
When there’s something really wrong
So they follow me down the hall
And there in the bathroom
I try not to fall apart
And the sinking feeling starts
As I say hopelessly
“I thought I could do it”
And it was like slow motion
Sitting there with my best friends
In red rain boots
I started to get stressed
And they’re all laughing
Saying look how far I’ve gone
But there was one thing missing
And that was the moment I knew
What do you say, when tears are streaming down your face
In front of everyone you know?
And what do you do when the grade that means the most to you doesn’t glow?
It should have worked out
And I would’ve been so happy
And it was like slow motion
Sitting there with my best friends
In red rain boots
I started to get stressed
And they’re all standing around me
Singing look how far I’ve gone
But there was one thing missing
And that was the moment I knew
You called me later
And said, “I’m sorry your test was bad ”
And I said, “I’m sorry too”
And that was the moment I knew

+5 is very easy for beginners!
Hey guys! Thank you for loving this song…..i worked really hard in the making of it. For strumming, i really just strum how i feel it should sound! What helps is to make up your own pattern so it can sound like YOU. Hope to see y’all at the rep tour!
-Taylor <3
Does anyone know the strumming pattern I love this song and this chord sheet thing but I can never find out what the flipping strumming pattern is
+5 is easier
Haha
Why did you change this? I honestly liked it better when it was “F C G” please change it back!
