                   G
I've been spending way too long checking my tongue in the mirror
    D
And bending over backwards just to try to see it clearer
    Em
But my breath fogged up the glass
         C
And so I drew a new face and I laughed
  G
I guess what I'll be saying is there ain't no better reason
   D
To rid yourself of vanities and just go with the seasons
   Em
It's what we aim to do
    C
Our name is our virtue

No more, no more

It cannot wait; I'm yours
                                     D
Well, open up your mind and see like me
                                    Em
Open up your plans and damn you're free
                                         C
Look into your heart and you'll find that the sky is yours
   G
So please don't, please don't, please don't
           D        Dsus4
There's no need to complicate
           Em
'Cause our time is short
                              C
This oh, this oh, this is our fate
       A7
I'm yours
 
[Outro]

How to play "I'm Yours" on guitar

Introduction: The intro of "I'm Yours" is in a laid-back strumming pattern
with a smooth, flowing rhythm. The used chords are G, D, Em, and C.
Start with the G chord using a gentle down-up strumming pattern. Slide
into the D chord smoothly while keeping the rhythm relaxed. Move to
Em and C with the same strumming pattern. Pay attention to keeping
the transitions clean and the rhythm steady.

Verse 1: We continue with the same chord progression and similar
strumming pattern, all the way to the verse. Feel relaxed and easygoing
with the vibe. Begin with the G chord and strum through with a steady
down-up pattern. Change to the D chord—always mind those nice,
smooth transitions. Move to Em, and then to C, making sure that you
hold a nice, steady rhythm throughout. Make sure to get the chords
to ring out clearly.

Chorus: The chorus speeds up a little, but it's always very laid-back and
mellow. Start again with the G chord and then go to D, Em, C.
Use a down-up strumming pattern—just remember, on these downstrokes,
I kind of focus a little more than usual to give this section a little more
energy. But otherwise just keep your strumming relaxed. Be really careful
with your timing when you're moving between the Dsus4 and D chords.
Just keep that strumming nice and even and relaxed.

Chorus 2: Same chord changes but add a little variation in your strumming.
Keep it loose with the strums on G, D, Em, C. Add emphasis to the groove
by loosening up your strum pattern. Make sure to really keep an eye out
for the syncopation - it keeps this verse really lively.

Bridge: Play that interlude using the same G, D, Em, C chords, just drop
the rhythm back a bit and get a little playful. Strum a little harder and
bouncier on that A7 to keep it light, fun, and swinging in relation to what
the lyrics are saying.

Verse 3: This third verse will go back to our original chord progression
and strumming pattern while taking on a slightly more introspective feel.
To start, play a G, D, Em, and C. Strum softly, paying close attention to
the lyrics and letting the melody guide you through. Keep your transitions
nice and smooth, and let the chords ring out clearly to match the reflective
tone of these lyrics.

Chorus & Outro: The final chorus and outro fades the song out gently.
Use the same G, D, Em, C progression. Strum with a laid back and
flowing rhythm. As the song fades out keep strumming lightly,
letting the chords ring and fade naturally.

Common Mistakes:
- Rushing the Strumming: Keep the strumming pattern relaxed and
steady. It's important to maintain the song's laid-back feel.
- Smooth Transitions: Work on transitioning smoothly between the chords,
especially moving from D to Dsus4 and back to D.
- Overcomplicating the Strumming: This song is simple. Do not overdo it
with many changes in the strumming that the actual song structure will
be completely off.
