Ukulele Chords TAKE IT BACK By ED SHEERAN

Ukulele Chords TAKE IT BACK By ED SHEERAN

  VERSION 1  

Verse 1 :
Ebm
I'm not a rapper, I'm a singer with a flow
I've got a habit of spitting
quicker lyrics you know
             B
You found me ripping the writtens
out of the pages they sit in
          Db
And never once I get bitten,
           Bb7/D
cause plagiarism is hidden
              Ebm
Which I would sit on the rhythm,
prisoner with a vision
Signs of a label, but didn't listen to any criticism
            B
Thought you knew but you didn't
Perk your ears up and listen
Db
Studio with a system
                          Bb7/D
And you could say that I'm driven
             Ebm
And now it's on to the next saga,
we drink the best lager
I never tried to win you over
like your stepfather
B
I do my own thing now, and get respect after
Db                      Bb7/D
And I'm avoiding cocaine like it was Get Carter
Ebm
For four years I never had a place to stay
but it's safe to say that it kept me grounded like a paperweight
   B
At 16 years old yeah I moved out of my home
      Db                         Bb7/D
I was Macy Gray I tried to say goodbye and
I choked
           Ebm
And we've been sleeping at the subway station, sleeping with a movie star and adding to the population
             B
Not my imagination, I don't want to relax
                            Bb
But would it hurt your reputation,
                Bb *
if I put it on wax?
I take it back now

Chorus :
Ebm
Mmh Mmh Mmh Mmh
                            B
Come on and take it back now
     Db              Bb7/D         Ebm
Come on and take it back for us
Ebm                              B  
Don't you fade into the back love,  
  Db    Bb7/D
nooooohh

Verse 2 :
                        Ebm
Take it back with the rhythm and blues
and my rap pack I'll be singing the news,
trying to act like Jack Black when I repeat the school
B
I'll make a beat with my feet by just singing a loop,
Db                        Bb7/D
bringing the lyrics to prove that I can fit in these shoes
Ebm
And keeping the truth through the vocal booth,
stars burst out on the scene like an opal fruit,
            B
they try to take aim like beckham when he goes to shoot,
         Db
but then again that's what they're supposed to do,
Bb7/D
and I'm supposed to be calm,
      Ebm
I tattooed the lyrics onto my arm, whispering everything that happens is from now on,
        B
I'll be willing to start again by the end of the song,
              Db                           Bb7/D
still they're claiming that I handled it wrong,
                         Ebm
but then I never had an enemy, except the Nme,
but I'll be selling twice as many copies as the magazines will ever be,
B
with only spectacles ahead of me on festival fees,
Db                    Bb7/D
healthier than a Dalmatian, no pedigree,
Ebm
singing for the masses,
rubber dinghy rapids,
I keep this rapping a habit
and keep on passioning magic,
B
I'm battling with respect,
                        Db
I don't know if I'll have it,
                      Bb
this songs from the heart,
cover the plaque
I'll take it back now

Chorus :
Ebm
Mmh Mmh
                           B
Come on and take it back now
     Db              Bb7/D         Ebm
Come on and take it back for us
Ebm                               B  
Don't you fade into the back love,  
  Db    Bb7/D
nooooohh

Verse 3 :

Take it back now
Ebm
I don't ever wanna be perfect,
Cause I'm a singer that you
never wanna see shirtless
    B
I accept the fact that someone's got to win worst-dressed,
           Db                     Bb7/D
Taking my first steps into the scene,
giving me focus
Ebm
Putting on a brave face, like Timothy Dalton
Considering a name change,
thinking it was hopeless
  B
Rhyming over recordings,
avoiding tradition
            Db
Cause everyday some lyrics
          Bb7/D
and a melody can be written
   Ebm
Now absence can make your heart break
But drinking absinthe can change your mind-state, vividly,
I need to let my liver be
B
And I say it again,
                     Db
Living life on the edge,
                 Bb7/D
with a closed hand full of friends
Is good advice from a man
Ebm
who took his life on the road with me
and I hope to see him blowing up globally
                          B
Cause that's how it's supposed to be
screaming out vocally
              Db
It might seem totally impossible
   Bb7/D
achieving life's dreams
    Ebm
But, but I just write schemes
I'm never having a stylist, giving me tight jeans
                    B
Madison Square Garden is where I might be
But more likely,
            Db
You'll find me in the back
          Bb7/D
room of a dive bar with my mates
         Ebm
Having a pint with McDaid
Discussing records we made
And every single second knowing
that we'll never betray
                 B
The way we were raised
Remembering our background
Sat down
Db
That's how we put it out
     Bb7/D
It's time to take it back now

Chorus :
Ebm
Mmh Mmh Mmh Mmh
                             B
Come on and take it back now
     Db              Bb7/D         Ebm
Come on and take it back for us
Ebm                              B  
Don't you fade into the back love,  
     Db         Bb7/D
nooooohh        uuuuuuuhh

Ebm
Mmh Mmh Mmh Mmh
                             B
Come on and take it back now
     Db               Bb7/D          Ebm
Come on and take it back for us
Ebm                                B  
Don't you fade into the back love,  
   Db    Bb7/D
nooooohh

Verse 4 :           (Strum every chord only once here!)

          Ebm
My dreams keep me awake at night
                        Ebm
written in rhymes, and I, deliver the hype am I
just living the lie
       B
with this you must know that the number's just sold woah
Db                                Bb7/D
Will keep me going through the tough times, dream with me
Ebm
We forget 90 percent of it when we wake
         Ebm
But the other 10 per cent it never fades
                 B
Dreaming dreams, day to day goals,
                                   Db
Stay awake loads, try to make the cut like the
                 Bb7/D
paper or razor blade, oh, never give up
Ebm
And just remember just to hold out more
Ebm
Couple years ago
I couldn't just control that thought
               B
You'd find me buskin' on the street
When it was cold outdoors
              Db
And now I'm sweating on the stage
     Bb7/D        
of a sold out tour
        Ebm              
Writing love songs for the sake of it,
never to make a hit
     Ebm
You can't fake talent and work ethic just to make it quick
B
I'm not a rapper I'm a singer, I just take the piss and
Db                                  Bb7/D
Most the other guys are kids that pose his little sister
         Ebm
has to babysit, that's just a way it is
            Ebm
Dreams you own, just set your goals
and have the utmost faith in it
B
Tread your own path, you'll never make it as a follower,
Db                                       Bb7/D
you'll never know where you will go or where you'll be tomorrow
