I think this is the first transcription that uses the chords she actually plays.
Capo 2nd Fret
The chords are as follows:
E: 022100
Bsus4: x24400
Asus2: x02200
C#m7: x46600
Intro:
E Bsus4 Asus2 Bsus4
C#m7 Bsus4 C#m7 Bsus4
Asus2 Bsus4 Asus2 Bsus4
Verse Pattern:
E Bsus4
My name is Luka
Asus2 Bsus4
I live on the second floor
E Bsus4
I live upstairs from you
Asus2 Bsus4
Yes I think you've seen me before
Chorus Pattern:
C#m7 Bsus4
If you hear something late at night
C#m7 Bsus4 Asus2
Some kind of trouble, some kind of fight
Bsus4
Just don't ask me what it was
Asus2 Bsus4
Just don't ask me what it was
Asus2 Bsus4 (allow chord to ring)
Just don't ask me what it was
(Repeat above for all versus and choruses)
I think it's because I'm clumsy
I try not to talk too loud
Maybe it's because I'm crazy
I try not to act too proud
They only hit until you cry
After that you don't ask why
You just don't argue anymore
You just don't argue anymore
You just don't argue anymore
Yes I think I'm okay
I walked into the door again
Well, if you ask that's what I'll say
And it's not your business anyway
I guess I'd like to be alone
With nothing broken, nothing thrown
Just don't ask me how I am [X3]
My name is Luka
I live on the second floor
I live upstairs from you
Yes I think you've seen me before
If you hear something late at night
Some kind of trouble, some kind of fight
Just don't ask me what it was
Just don't ask me what it was
Just don't ask me what it was
And they only hit until you cry
After that, you don't ask why
You just don't argue anymore
You just don't argue anymore
You just don't argue anymore
