Surprise Gnarls Barkley
I recently started listening to a lot of Cee-Lo Green's music, and this song is
ne of my favorites. I was happy to discover that the song was quite simple to
learn by ear. The only chord I had trouble figuring out was the Bb (the recording
sounds like a variation other than major or minor, but I can't quite pin it down),
but a barre chord works just fine.
I hope this tab works for you!
(On the D, mute the high E string throughout)
Intro: Am C D Am Am x2
[Am] [C] [D] [Am]
|---------------------------| |---------------------------| |---------------------------| |---------------------------| |---------------7-5---------| |-5---5-7-8---8-------8-7-5-|
Verse
It's [Am]cool being the only one - but it's lonely
I could have [Bb]fallen in love a thousand times before if only someone, had known me
They say there's [Am]someone for everyone
Oh plus the work will be never done
When all you [Bb]need is to be met halfway but nobody tries
Chorus
Don't be surprised[Am] [C]
Don't be sur[D]pris[Am]ed[Am]
[Am] [C]
------------------
Don't be sur[D]pris[Am]ed[Am]
Verse
There are [Am]hills and mountains between us, always something to get over
[Bb]Needless to say it's a wonderful day, I just noticed how nice it was to know ya
Oh but be [Am]ready to sacrifice, and if you love him you should tell him twice
Because when [Bb]everything that's alive ultimately dies, oh Lord
Chorus
Verse
[Am]Somebody's watching, maybe you want them to see you
But with your [Bb]regrets and secrets you don't really want them to be you
Well you can [Am]make believe I'm blind
And for now I'll be just fine
But when the [Bb]child grows up to have more than just your eyes
Chorus
Verse
Now the [Am]ending to every story is most enchanting
Now, whether it's [Bb]heaven or hell
I wear it well, please forgive me for rambling
[Am]I just wanted y'all to know that I don't know it all
So when that [Bb]big ol' smile ends up, being a disguise
Chorus (repeated several times)
Outro: Am C D Am Am
