New Tattoo ukulele

New Tattoo

• C#

This is one of my favourite songs by James Arthur and because there was no version online, 
I decided to try to make my own. If you haven't bought his CD yet: go and buy it! ;)

Enjoy!

(intro bass: C#, B, G#, C, C)

VERSE 1
C#m           A           G#               A
Under my skin, beneath my fingertips, you slip and slide away
C#m        A          G#                   A
Let me begin to understand how you operate in such a calculated way

PRE-CHORUS
A           B           C#m                      B
Before today, I didn't know if I'd make it, but now it's all making sense
A     G#
Oh, ohh

CHORUS
C#m 
I wear you like a new tattoo
       A                                     
The design, the desire, I don't wanna remove
G#                                             A
You're the kind of thing, that I could love forever
C#m 
I wear you like a new tattoo
    A 
And I'll be so happy, that I'm stuck with you
G#                           A
And we cannot deface in any weather, ooohh

(strum once)
C#m                   A    
Daa da, da daa da, da da daa, daa da daa

C#m            A                       G#                  A
I've been that boy for what feels like 500 years, now I'm finally finding me

Before today, I didn't know if I'd make it, but now it's all making sense

Daa da, da daa da, da da daa, daa da daa

Daa da, da daa da, da da daa, yeahh

BRIDGE (arpeggio or improvise)
A               B                C#m                         B
And I was so lost, and I was so lost in this world with no place and no purpose
        A                                      G#
Now I'm blowing up and will get bigger, never hide from a fight, got the heart of a winner

CHORUS

I wear you like a new tattoo
