(ver. 1)
Taylor Swift
[Intro]
Am F E
Am F E

[Verse 1]
Am        Dm               Am
I don't like your little games
       Dm              Am
Don't like your titled stage
    Dm                Am
The role you made me play
                    E
Of the fool, no, I don't like you

Am      Dm                  Am
I don't like your perfect crime
    Dm                  Am
How you laugh when you lie
     Dm               Am
You said the gun was mine
                   E
Isn't cool, no, I don't like you

[Pre-Chorus]
Am
But I got smarter, I got harder in the nick of time
Dm                                       E
Honey, I rose up from the dead, I do it all the time
Am
I've got a list of names and yours is in red underlined
Dm                         E
I check it once, then I check it twice

[Chorus]
Am                         Am
Ohh, look what you made me do
                      Dm
Look what you made me do
                         E
Look what you just made me do
                           Am
Look what you just made me do
Am                         Am
Ohh, look what you made me do
                      Dm
Look what you made me do
                         E
Look what you just made me do
                           Am
Look what you just made me do

[Verse 2]
Am       Dm                Am
I don't like your kingdom keys
      Dm              Am
They once belonged to me
      Dm                      Am
You asked me for a place to sleep
                    E
Locked me out and threw a feast (what?)

Am
The world goes on, another day, another drama-drama
Dm                           E
But not for me, not for me, all I think about is karma
Am
And then the world moves on but one thing's for sure
Dm                           E
Maybe I got mine, but you'll all get yours

[Pre-Chorus]
Am
But I got smarter, I got harder in the nick of time
Dm                                       E
Honey, I rose up from the dead, I do it all the time
Am
I've got a list of names and yours is in red underlined
Dm                         E
I check it once, then I check it twice

[Chorus]
Am                         Am
Ohh, look what you made me do
                      Dm
Look what you made me do
                         E
Look what you just made me do
                           Am
Look what you just made me do
Am                         Am
Ohh, look what you made me do
                      Dm
Look what you made me do
                         E
Look what you just made me do
                           Am
Look what you just made me do

Am
I don't trust nobody and nobody trust me
F                      E
I'll be the actress, starring in your bad dreams
Am
I don't trust nobody and nobody trust me
F                      E
I'll be the actress, starring in your bad dreams

I don't trust nobody and nobody trust me

I'll be the actress, starring in your bad dreams

I'll be the actress, starring in your bad dreams

I'm sorry,
          Dm
The old Taylor can't come to the phone right now
  F
Why?
 E
Oh!'Cause she's dead!

[Chorus] 
Am                         Am
Ohh, look what you made me do
                      Dm
Look what you made me do
                         E
Look what you just made me do
                           Am
Look what you just made me do
Am                         Am
Ohh, look what you made me do

Look what you just made me do





How to play "Look What You Made Me Do" on guitar

- Chord Progression: The song primarily revolves around the chords Am, Dm, F,
  and E. The progression has a dark, moody vibe fitting the song's theme.

- Intro & Verses: Start with the intro and verse progression Am, F, E, 
  repeating twice for the intro and continuing with a similar pattern in the 
  verses. Strum with a steady, punchy rhythm to match the song's edgy tone.

- Strumming Pattern: For the verses, use a more percussive down-strum to keep 
  the tension high. This pattern helps drive the narrative and keeps the 
  arrangement dynamic.

- Pre-Chorus & Chorus: The pre-chorus builds up with Am, Dm, and E. Increase
  your strumming intensity here to build up to the chorus. The chorus should
  be powerful and defiant, using strong downstrokes to emphasize the beat.

- Bridge: The bridge shifts to a more ominous tone with the chords Am, F, E.
  Strum lightly here to create a contrast with the more aggressive chorus. This 
  part should feel like a sinister whisper compared to the shouting chorus.

- Common Mistakes:
  - Not maintaining a consistent strumming pattern, which can weaken the song's 
    impact.
  - Rushing the tempo, especially in the chorus. Keep it steady and forceful.
  - Overstrumming in the bridge, which can overpower the vocals.

General Tips:
- Practice the chord changes slowly at first to ensure clarity and precision, 
  then increase your speed as you become more comfortable.
- Pay attention to the dynamics of your playing; the song demands a range of 
  emotions, from whispering verses to a roaring chorus.
- Listen to the original track to get a feel for the tempo and dynamics.

Lyrics Meaning:
"Look What You Made Me Do" reflects a theme of transformation and revenge,
expressing a narrative of betrayal and the subsequent reclaiming of one's
power. The song uses sharp, direct language to convey a sense of empowerment
and defiance against past grievances.
