Capo 2nd Fret
The pattern throughout the song is to pluck a single note on the downbeat of
each measure and then strum the chord for the rest of the measure. The pattern
is pretty easy to pick up just listening to the song. Here are the picked notes:
G - Low E String
C - A String
D - D String
Em - D String
Intro - G
Verse
G C
woke up at 7 rode the bus until 11
G D
called ex-lovers and my brother hoping someone was awake
Em C
circled 'round the campus in a t-shirt and pajamas
G D
as i stared out of the window and my heart began to break
Chorus
C G Em D
cause it's all good cause i'm no good and believe me you dont need me
C G Em
it's a big world and i'm old news to you
Verse
G C
i started healing soon as i regained the feeling
G D
in my fingers pressed so hard against that steel the night before
Em C
I wrote another love song but my heart it wouldnt sing along
G D
my head agreed it didnt need to try to right the wrong
Chorus
C G Em D
but it's all good cause i'm no good and believe me you dont need me
C G D
it's a big world and i'm old news to you
