[Intro]
Am C Am C
Am C Am C
[Verse]
Am F C Am C
Ask her what's your favorite blend of whiskey when you smoke
Am C Am C
I'd bet a glass of McCallan 12 no way in hell she'll know
Am C Am C
And ask her why that puzzle piece is in your sleeve tattoo
Am F C
That buddy's name that flew away 11th grade too soon
[Chorus]
Am F
I know something she don't know
C
When you break down where you go
Am7 F
Why those tabs come off your cans
C
Skynyrd stays on your FM
Am7 F
I know, you know
C G
It just don't make sense
Am7
If she don't get you
F C
Why's she get you layin' in her bed?
Am7 C Am C
Ah ah
[Verse]
C Am F C
Where you get the green inside your eyes
Am C
When both your mom and dad have blues
Am C
Why you always come alive
Am C
When you see Tuscaloosa lose
Am C
And do you ever ask the question
Am C
If she's all part of the plan?
Am7 C
Or if you'd be better off
F C
With someone who understands
[Chorus]
Am F
I know something she don't know
C
When you break down where you go
Am7 F
Why those tabs come off your cans
C
Skynyrd stays on your FM
Am7 F
I know, you know
C G
It just don't make sense
Am7
If she don't get you
F C
Why's she get you layin' in her bed?
Am7 F C G
Oh oh oh yeah
Am7
If she don't get you
F C
Why's she get you
[Break]
Am7 F
Yeah, I know something she don't know
C
You still call when you're alone
Am7 F
Tell me every now and then
C
You wish she got you like I did
[Chorus]
Am7 F
I know, you know
C G
It just don't make sense (oh, it just don't make sense)
Am7
If she don't get you
C
Why's she get you layin' in her room?
Am7
If she don't get you
F C Am F Am C
Why's she get you layin' in her bed?
Am C Am C
(If she don't get you)
Am F Am C
Am C
(If she don't get you)
How to play "Get You" on guitar
[Intro and Verse Chord Progression]
- The song begins with a chord progression of Am, C, repeated through
the intro and the verses. This progression sets an introspective and
emotionally charged tone.
- Use a gentle, rhythmic strumming pattern to emphasize the contemplative
mood of the lyrics, allowing the story to unfold naturally.
[Chorus Dynamics]
- The chorus introduces additional chords—F, Am7, G—creating a fuller
sound and bringing emotional depth to the forefront. Increase the
strumming intensity slightly to underline the emotional revelations
in the lyrics.
- This part of the song should feel emotionally charged, as it conveys
a sense of longing and understanding about the subject.
[Break]
- The break shifts focus to a more reflective tone, using Am7 and F to
convey a personal confession and deeper emotional insights. Maintain
a softer strumming pattern here to highlight the vulnerability expressed
in the lyrics.
- This section should provide a poignant contrast to the more dynamic
chorus, focusing on the intimate connections and missed understanding.
[Outro]
- For the outro, continue with the soft dynamic strumming used in the
break, gradually winding down in intensity to end the song on a
reflective note.
- Let the final chords linger, emphasizing the unresolved feelings and
the thematic question of understanding and connection.
Common mistakes:
- Not varying the strumming dynamics between the verse, chorus, and
break. Ensure each section is distinct, with the chorus standing out
as the emotional climax.
- Rushing through the chord transitions, especially in the chorus.
Practice these transitions to ensure they are smooth and enhance the
song’s emotional narrative.
