As I Was Saying by Jack Johnson off his new album “From Here to Now to You” 

Standard tuning. NOTE: Barre chords sound the BEST here. You can still use the regular  
chords but barre chords create that Jack Johnson sound we all love.

VERSE 
A              Em 
As I was saying 
                          D 
Just before you left the room 
       A 
Before I assumed 
      G         D          A 
That you might not come around 

A              Em 
As I was saying 
                   D 
Just after I took my foot from 
    A                G 
My mouth and put it back 
D        A 
On the ground 



[Refrão]
D                     E 
I don't want to disappoint you 
A                     D 
I don't want to disappear 
      Bm      E      A 
From here or now or you 

VERSE 
A                   Em 
This is worth saving 
                          D 
Because the sum of us is more than us 
       A 
If you add us up 


          G       D        A 
Then subtract my lack of sleep 

A                  Em 
My mind feels crazy 
                             D 
When all these thoughts come rushing in 
              A 
Should I be trusting them 
   G     D        A 
Or only let them be? 



[Refrão]
D                     E 
I don't want to disappoint you 
A                     D 
I don't want to disappear 
      Bm      E      A 
From here or now or you 

BRIDGE 
Bm                      E 
Is it just a matter of time? 
Bm                        C# 
Or does it even matter at all? 
D                      A           Bm 
Because even if this story should fall 
           D         A 
From the sky to the sea 
A           Bm 
If I should fall 
           D              F#m 
Would you fall down with me? 
               E 
Would you fall? 

VERSE 
A                 Em 
Found my foundation 
                     D 
It was underneath me all alone 
A 
On this path I'm on, 
       G     D     A 
Now I never walk alone 

A                Em 
I've been erasing 
                    D 
Rewrote the second half like this 
          A 
So my protagonist 
       G        D        A 
Might find his way back home 



[Refrão]
D                     E 
I don't want to disappoint you 
A                     D 
I don't want to disappear 
      Bm      E      A 
From here or now or you 
             Bm      E       A 
No not from here or now or you
