Whatever It Takes Ukulele

(ver. 1)
Ron Pope
I play this song in a different key, solely because of my vocal range being
higher than Ron Pope's. These chords work for playing the song in the keys
of G - C (placing a capo on frets 1 through 5 will give the song in keys G#
through C - a capo much higher than that will make it difficult to play). 
The song is originally in F, so if you wanted to, you could tune the strings
down two semitones and play these chords so it will be in the original key.



Intro: G  Cadd9  G  Em D Cadd9 x2

Verse 1:
      G   Cadd9     G    Em D
It is late and I am cold
          G   Cadd9         G   Em D
Nothing's changed except for the snow
          G
I've been waiting on an answer,
Cadd9                    G    Em D
Hoping I could call your bluff
          G
I've been giving second chances
Cadd9                G         Em D Cadd9
Thinking maybe I gave too much


Bridge:
         Em
What you want from me
         D                              G
It's not something I could give you for free
    D     Em           Cadd9       D
And all I know in this life is you can't stop breathing


Chorus:
Cadd9        G
Whatever it takes
                    D         Em D Cadd9
Just tell me you'll stay with me forever
           G
Don't turn away
                    D
Just tell me you'll stay
       Em           D      Cadd9 Em              D
'Cause when we're together I see stars above the headlights
               Em      D       Cadd9
And they don't seem so far away
            G
Whatever it takes
                     D
Just tell me you'll stay
Whatever it takes
Whatever it takes

Intro: G   Cadd9   G   Em D


Verse 2:
     G   Cadd9         G   Em D
I am shamed and you are lost
        G  Cadd9                G   Em D
We both ache for things we ain't got
      G
I was praying that you'd find me
Cadd9                      G   Em D
Teach me something I don't know
      G
I was praying that you'd find me
Cadd9                      G   Em D Cadd9
Praying that you'd guide me home


Bridge:
         Em
What you want from me
         D                              G
It's not something I could give you for free
    D      Em           Cadd9      D
And all I know in this life is you can't stop breathing


Chorus:
Cadd9        G
Whatever it takes
                    D         Em D Cadd9
Just tell me you'll stay with me forever
           G
Don't turn away
                    D
Just tell me you'll stay
       Em           D      Cadd9  Em             D
'Cause when we're together I see stars above the headlights
               Em      D       Cadd9
And they don't seem so far away
            G
Whatever it takes
                     D
Just tell me you'll stay
Whatever it takes
            Cadd9
Whatever it takes

Verse 3:
      G Cadd9               G   D   Em
I'm afraid of things I don't know
               G Cadd9             G   Em D
And I miss your face whenever you're gone


Chorus:
Cadd9        G
Whatever it takes
                    D         Em D Cadd9
Just tell me you'll stay with me forever

'Cause when we're together I see stars above the headlights
               Em      D       Cadd9
And they don't seem so far away
            G
Whatever it takes
                     D
Just tell me you'll stay
Whatever it takes
            G   Cadd9
Whatever it takes
           G      Em D Cadd9
Whatever it takes
