Overexposed ukulele

Overexposed

• C

Tuning: Standard 

First chords tab, for this addicting but simple song :D 

The confusing part about this song's chords is that the progression goes C-Am-Em- 
F, in two different directions at different times. So for bass, I'll label it Bass1 and Bass2.  
The arpeggio usually follows the second. The chords otherwise match with each other. 

Bass1 chords: C-Am-Em-F (Each chord lower than one before) 
Synth Arpeggio, Bass2 chords: C-A-E-F (Go down from C-A  then go up to E then F) 
Synth Solo notes: E-C-E-C-G-C-E-C/E-C-E-C-A-C-E-C 
Chorus Ohhs notes: E D E G  E D C A C D E C / E D E G  E D C D C A C 
E D E G  E D C A C D E C / E D E G  E D G E D E D C 

Intro: 
Bass2 x4 (drums start on the third) with Synth Solo  

Verse: 
Bass1 
Arpeggio 

C 
Middle seat 
Am        Em 
12-hour all-night drive 
F            C 
Pins and needles they break 
Am            Em 
Actions make more of a mess 
F 
Than words can make 

PreChorus: 
Arpeggio 
C       Am 
Like a picture 
Em        F 
I was overexposed 
C       Am 
Believe me 
  Em             F 
I saw it with my eyes closed 

Chorus: 
Ohhhs and Bass1 x4 

then  
AfterChorus: 
Bass2 x2 with Synth Solo 

verse 2: 
Bass2 and Arpeggio 
C 
A waxed ledge 
Am             Em  
Darkened from dirt and grinds 
F               C 
Break all your bones 
        Am 
Before they're grown 
       Em 
You'll never pay off 
F 
All of your loans 

PreChorus: (see above) 
Like a picture 
I was overexposed 
Believe me 
I saw it with my eyes closed 

Chorus: (see above, but no synth solo after) 
Ohhhs 

Bridge:  
Bass1 x2 alone, then Bass1 x2 with arpeggio 


then both Bass1 and Arpeggio with lyrics 
C 
Let's wake the world 
Am            Em 
And sing them back to sleep 
F          C 
But people don't listen  
Am              Em 
So we'll scream and shout 
        F 
As if these words are cheap 

PreChorus (see above)  
Like a picture 
I was overexposed 
Believe me 
I still see it with my eyes closed 

Chorus (see above, again without afterChorus) 
Ohhh 

~Enjoy!
