Strumming
Tuning: G C E A
This tab is inspired by Tyler's ukulele version, found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YmemeE9vh7Y
Note: when the Am is played, you slide from the third fret
to the second fret (the second fret being the Am chord)
Another note: at the second bridge, instead of strumming, you pluck only the E and C strings.
There is a different version of Am used in this song - I will note it by calling it "Am2".
Am2 = 5400
A|--0---|
E|--0---|
C|--4---|
G|--5---|
Another version of Am is used again - I will note this one by calling it "Am3".
A|--3---|
E|--0---|
C|--0---|
G|--2---|
The E chord is also alternative to what I usually use; below is what Tyler uses.
A|--7---|
E|--4---|
C|--4---|
G|--4---|
On the very last line of the song, Tyler plays a little riff on the A string. It goes like this:
A|--3-3-5-3-3-2-|
E|--------------|
C|--------------|
G|--------------|
[Intro]
F Dm Am Am2
[Verse 1]
FI wish I found some better Dmsounds no one’s ever heard,
AmI wish I had a better Am2voice that sang some better words.
FI wish I found some chords Dmin an order that is new,
AmI wish I didn't have to rhyme every time I sang.
FI was told when I get olderDm all my fears would shrink,
AmBut now I’m insecure and I care what people think.
[Pre-Chorus]
My name’s F‘Blurryface’ and DmI care what you Amthink. Am2
My name’s F‘Blurryface’ and DmI care what you Amthink. Am2
[Chorus]
FWish we could Gturn back timeC, to the Egood ol’ daysAm,
GWhen our momma sang Cus to sleep but nEow we’re stressed out.
AmWish we could Gturn back timeC, to the Egood ol’ daysAm,
GWhen our momma sang Cus to sleep but nEow we’re stressed out. F Dm Am
Am2We’re stressed out.
[Verse 2]
F Dm Am Am2
AmSometimes a certain smell will Gtake me back to when I was young,
FHow come I’m never Fadd9able to Cidentify where Am3it’s coming from?
AmI’d make a candle out of it Gif I ever found it,
FTry to sell it, never sell out of it, CI’d probably only Am3sell one.
AmIt’d be to my brother, G‘cause we have the same nose,
FSame clothes homegrown a Fadd9stone’s Cthrow from a Am3creek we used to roam.
FBut it would remind us of when Dmnothing really mattered,
Out of student Amloans and treehouse homes we Am2all would take the latter.
[Pre-Chorus]
My name’s F‘Blurryface’ and DmI care what you Amthink. Am2
My name’s F‘Blurryface’ and DmI care what you Amthink. Am2
[Chorus]
FWish we could Gturn back timeAm, to the Ggood ol’ days,
AmWhen our Gmomma sang Cus to sleep but Enow we’re stressed out.
AmWish we could Gturn back timeAm, to the Ggood ol’ days,
AmWhen our Gmomma sang Cus to sleep but Enow we’re stressed out.
[Bridge]
FWe used to play pretend, Ggive each other different names,
CWe would build a rocket ship and then Ewe’d fly it far away.
AmUsed to dream of outer space but now they’re Glaughing at our face,
Saying, C“wake up, you need to make Emoney", yeah.
AmWe used to play pretend, Ggive each other different names,
CWe would build a rocket ship and then Ewe’d fly it far away.
AmUsed to dream of outer space but now they’re Glaughing at our face,
ESaying, “wake up, you need to make money", yeah.
[Chorus: strum once for each chord on the first line]
FWish we could Gturn back timeAm, to the Ggood ol’ days,
AmWhen our Gmomma sang Cus to sleep but En
