Flake

Song composer: Jack Johnson

Lyrics author: Jack Johnson

(intro)

Dm F Bb F

Dm F

I know she said it’s alright

Bb F

But 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

Dm F

Maybe she thinks I know something

Bb F

Maybe maybe she thinks its fine

Dm F

Maybe she knows something I don’t

Bb C

I’m so, I’m so tired, I’m so tired of trying

(chorus)

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 might just let it go

F C

And often times we’re lazy

Dm A

It seems to stand in my way

Bb C

Cause no one no not no one

F C

Likes to be let down

(this verse is just single strums of each chord)

Dm F

I know she loves the sunrise

Bb F

No longer sees it with her sleeping eyes

Dm F

And I know that when she said she’s gonna try

Bb F

Well it might not work because of other ties and

Dm F

I know she usually has some other ties

Bb F

And I wouldn’t want to break ’em, nah, I wouldn’t want to break ’em

Dm F

Maybe she’ll help me to untie this but

Bb C

Until then well, I’m gonna have to lie to you

(you know this bit already..)

(chorus x1.5)

It seems to me that maybe

It pretty much always means no

So don’t tell me you might just let it go

And often times we’re lazy

It seems to stand in my way

Cause no one no not no one

Likes to be let down

It seems to me that maybe

It pretty much always means no

So don’t tell me you might just let it go

(while Ben Solo’s it’s just F barre chords on the upbeat only..)

(then the whole next verse is all just chords on the up-beats and a

couple of percussive strums on the down..)

F Bb

The harder that you try baby, the further you’ll fall

F C

Even with all your money in the whole wide world

Please please please don’t pass me

F c F

Please please please don’t pass me by

(same for these next bits...)

Everything you know about me now baby you gonna have to change

You goin to call it by a brand new name

Please please please don’t drag me

Please please please don’t drag me down

Just like your tree down by the water baby I shall not move

Even after all your silly things you do-oo

Please please please don’t drag me

Please please please don’t drag me down

Go back
