Flake Ukulele

(ver. 1)
Jack Johnson
Hey, so the difference between the Version that is already posted is the
different Bb that is played with a Barre. I think this one fits better. But 
try it yourself.

Intro

||:Dm   |F   |Bb   |F   :||


Verse 1

Dm                       F
I know she said, it's al - right,

Bb                        F
  You can make it up next time.

Dm                       F
I know she knows it's not right,

Bb                      F
  There ain't no use in lying.


Verse 2

Dm                     F
Maybe she thinks I know something,
 
           Bb                      F
Maybe, may-be she thinks it's fine.

Dm                        F  
Maybe she knows something   I don't,

        Bb
I'm so, I'm so tired,

C
 I'm so tired of trying.


Chorus:

F                        C
 It seems to me that may - be,

Dm                        A
 It pretty much always means no,

     Bb              C                    F  C
So don't tell me you might just let it go.

F                         C
 And often times we're la - zy,

Dm                     A
 It seems to stand in my way

     Bb               C                         F C
'Cos no-one, no not no-one likes to be let down.


Verse 3

Dm                   F
I know she loves the sunrise,

Bb                           F
  No longer sees it wiht her sleeping eyes,

   Dm                                F
And  I know that when she said she's gonna try,

                  Bb                  F
Well, it might be not work because of other ties.

   Dm                            F
And  I know she usually has some other ties,

   Bb
And  I wouldn't wanna break 'em, nah,

F
 I wouldn't wanna break them.

Dm                    F
 Maybe she'll help me to untie this but

Bb                C
 Until then, well,  I'm gonna have to lie too.


Chorus 2

F                    C
 It seems to me that maybe,

Dm                        A
 It pretty much always means no, 

       Bb                 C                F  C
So don't tell me you just might let it go.

F                         C
 And often times we're la - zy,

Dm                      A
 It seems to stand in my way.

     Bb               C                         F  C
'Cos no-one, no not no-one likes to be let down.

F                        C
 It seems to me that may - be,

Dm                           A
 It pretty much alweays means no,

   Bb                C                    F  C
So don't tell me you might just let it go.
