All of me .. John Legend

So here we are: my first guitar song with a "Capo".  Capo is short for 'Capotasto', an Italian word used to indicate the head of the fret-board of the guitar.  Adding your Capo to the guitar means you raise the pitch by one note. 

A more detailed idea about how the Capo works can be found here: How the 'Capo' works!




Please Note: All chords below are open chords with the "Capo" on the First Fret.


Verse 1
          C                      G 
What would I do without your smart mouth
            D                  Em
Drawing me in, and kicking me out
          C            G               D          Em
Got my head spinning, no kidding, I cant pin you down
             C                    G
Whats going on in that beautiful mind
               D             Em
I'm on your magical mystery ride
        C              G                     D         Am
And I'm so dizzy, don't know what hit me, but I'll be alright

Bridge
Am              Em
My heads under water
    D             Am
But I'm breathing fine
                Em             D
You're crazy and I'm out of my mind

Chorus
      G
Cause all of me
       Em
Loves all of you
            Am
Love your curves and all your edges
           D
All your perfect imperfections
           G
Give your all to me
            Em
Ill give my all to you
         Am
You're my end and my beginning
      D
Even when I lose I'm winning
                  Em   C      G
Cause I give you all, all of me
                 Em   C      G    D
And you give me all, all of you, oh

Verse 2
Em              C                 G
How many times do I have to tell you
                  D                     Em
Even when you're crying you’re beautiful too
              C           G         D                  Em
The world is beating you down, I'm around through every move
            C                G
You're my downfall, you're my muse
             D                        Em
My worst distraction, my rhythm and blues
               C            G        D            Am
I cant stop singing, its ringing, in my head for you

Bridge

Chorus

Bridge Change
Am            Em
Cards on the table
       D             Am
Were both showing hearts
Am          Em               D
Risking it all, though its hard
