#I had already heard Edith Piaf's original version in french, but I never realized 
how beautiful it would sound on the ukulele until I heard it on HIMYM! The chords 
I would find online just weren't doing it for me, I found this way that I think 
sounds a bit nicer. Hope you enjoy! :)


When you press me to your heart,
                G6 (or Em)
I'm in a world apart,
                        G7        C

G                                         Gmaj7

Baby really hurt me
                Am 
crying in the taxi
                Dm
He dont wanna know me
                         Am                     A#     Dm
says you make the big mistake of dancing in my store 
Gm                  C
   Says it was poison
                 F
So I guess I go home 
          Am                     Dm
into the arms of the girl that I love
                Am 
the only love I havent screwed up
A#                  Dm
   She's so hard to please
             Gm      C  
but shes a forest fire
        F               
I do my best to meet her demands
Am

but all that a stranger would see
        Dm           Gm               C     
is one girl swaying alone stroking her cheek

[Chorus]

      F         Am            Dm 
They say, "you're a little much for me
         Am     A#

And then they are bored of me
             
                    F
I know that its exciting
                     Am
running through the night but
              Dm                Am

[Chorus]

      F         Am            Dm 
They say, "you're a little much for me
         Am     A# 
You're a liability

You're all gonna watch me disappear into the sun

Why Cry

Intro  D     Bm7   G     A     x2


Verse 1
    D                              Bm7
We never spoke a word, but every thought she had 
                         G     A Asus A
I heard from across the room 
             D                               Bm7
If we were standin' face to face I couldn't find the words 
               G               A Asus A
To say give me one more move 
        G              A             G                   A
I don't even know her name, I guess foolish pride's to blame


Chorus 
          D                        D7
Now, I'm fallin' in love as she's walkin' away
        Bm7                 F#              G                    A
And my heart won't tell my mind to tell my mouth what it should say
 D                                  D7
May have lost this battle, live to fight another day
        Bm7 A   G                              Gm
Now I'm fallin' in love as she's walkin' away


Interlude   D     Bm7   G     A     x2


Verse 2
          D                           Bm7
Wise man next to me did say 'bout the one that got away
        G                    A
Son, I missed my chance 
           D                            Bm7
Don't you let regret take place of the dreams you have to chase
     G               A
Ask her to dance, go on, son

C#m          E       B      A                     C#m   E    B   A 
I’m going away to be alone I’m coming back with answers
C#m           E            B    A            C#m   E   B   A
Don’t try to call my telephone it’s disconnected
C#m           E          B       A               C#m   E   B   A
And I don’t know where I’m going but can you guide me
C#m              E        B        A              C#m   E   B   A
But if I find love where I’m going will it survive me


PRE-CHORUS 1:

C#m            B   A                         C#m         A   B
‘Cause in your own space you’re disconnected and in your own mind you’re not affected
C#m         B   A                           C#m         A   B
And in your own time you’re still attracted but in your own life


CHORUS:

A                                 C#m            B
This heart attack I’ve gotta get away not coming back
A                                 C#m                     B
I want some downtime so call me when you can and I’ll be fine


VERSE 2: [same chords as VERSE1]
I’ve found the time to be alone I don’t know what you’re asking
I’m waiting by the telephone and you’re still barking
My heart stops it isn’t… going could you revive me
I think I’m lost without knowing so come and find me


PRE-CHORUS 2:  [same chords as PRE-CHORUS1]
‘Cause in the same space we’re disconnected and in your own mind you’re not attracted
But in your own life over reacted and in your own time


{CHORUS x2}


Sometimes if we don’t go sometimes you don’t know
You don’t go I don’t go I don’t go you don’t go

C#5  B5  A5                      C#5  A5  B5
            I’ve got your back              but you don’t got mine
C#5  E5  A5                    C#5  A5  B5
            This heart attack              then I’m feeling fine


CHORUS x2

C#m          E       B    A 
I’m going away to be alone
C#m          E       B    A 
I'm going away to be alone ...............

                                   A                  E
Now this romantic duel is into the streets. Bon appetit.

Come Together

Intro: F

F
Under your wheels, the hope of spring
  Am
Mirage of loss, a few more things
    Dm
You left your sorrow dangling
   Bb                  C
It hangs in air like a school cheer

F
Complex notes inside the chords
    Am
On every wall inflections carved
Dm
Deep as lakes and dark as stars 
  Bb                 C         
Remember we were the volunteers.        
 
 Bb      Am                   Bb
(Oooooo) Courts knew this and nothing more
          Am                 Bb                F
(Oooooo) Now it's my rights versus yours

F
Under your wheels, your hopeless reign
Am
You fall too hard, we're up too late
   Dm
We hang suspended from the heights
  Bb                C
Until it's safer to walk here

F
Under your wheels, your chance is with
    Am
The easy call, the called-off search
    Dm
The medicine, it still won't work
            Bb                  C      
But there's dangerous levels of it here

 Bb      Am                Bb
(Oooooo) Same thing as the other time
         Am                       Gm
(Oooooo) But now it's your rights versus mine

    Bb                     F           Gm
The truth in one free afternoon
    Bb                     F   
The truth in one free afternoon

C                   Dm
Under my wheels the chance is held
Am                 Bb
Gave me to save me from myself
C                  Dm              Bb                     
Spectacles painted with my shaking hand

C                     Dm
Fingers in paints, in paints we brought
Am                       Bb
Thinking we'd leave them when we're not
C                   Dm             Bb
Flying the flags of new empires in rags

                  Gm
The new empire in rags
    Bb                F
The truth in one free afternoon
                Gm
A new empire in rags
    Bb                F
The truth in one free afternoon
                Gm
A new empire in rags
    Bb                F
The truth in one free afternoon
                Gm
A new empire in rags
    Bb                F
The truth in one free afternoon

F                       
Under your wheels, the fits and starts
    Am
The time to dabble in the arts
   Dm
To tease the packs of dogs in charge
    Bb                     C          
But kid it's all wasted on me

F
Under your wheels, the hope of spring
   Am
Mirage of loss, a few more things
    Dm
The medicine it still won't sing
    Bb                          C
But there's dangerous levels of it here

F              Am
Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Your rights over my rights now

We came to the right place.

when you're falling through your clothes 


run run run deep breath then jump 
roll with your vertigo stomp 
now you're clear but gone down 
you've been cleared of every charge understand 

you've turned into someone that you only know 
when you're falling through your clothes
