Released in early 2017, “Shape of You” by Ed Sheeran has become a global hit. I’ve made me best attempt at working out the notes – let me know if you spot anything which could be improved 🙂

The club isn’t the best place to find a lover
E E E E F# G# G#
So the bar is where I go
B G# G# G# G# G# F#-F# F#-F# F#
Me and my friends at the table doing shots
F#-F# F# F# G# F# E C#
Drinking fast and then we talk slow
C# C# C# F#-G# G# G# G#
And you come over and start up
G# G#-G#-G#-G# G# G# G#
A conversation with just me
G# B G# G# F# F# E G#
And trust me I’ll give it a chance
F#-E E E E B
Now take my hand, stop
F# G# G# F# F# F# F#-F#
Put Van the Man on the jukebox
F# F# F# F# E C#
And then we start to dance
.G# .G# C# C#-C# C#
And now I’m singing like…
C# C# C# .B C# G# F#
Girl, you know I want your love
F# F# G# F#-E
Your love was handmade
C# E-G#-F# F# C#
For somebody like me
B F# G# G#-F# E C#
Come on now, follow my lead
F# F# G# F#-E F# E C#
I may be crazy, don’t mind me…
C# C# C# .B C# G# F#
Say, boy, let’s not talk too much
F# F# G# F# E C# E G#-F# F# C#
Grab on my waist and put that body on me
B G# G# F#-E E C#
Come on now, follow my lead
C# B G# G# F#-E E C#
Come, come on now, follow my lead
.G#-.B-C#
Hmmmm ~
E F# G# F# E E F# F#
I’m in love with the shape of you
E E F# G# F# E E-F# C#
We push and pull like a magnet do
C# – E F# G# E E-F# F#
Although my heart is falling too
E F# G# F# E F#-C#
I’m in love with your body
F# G# B G# F# E F#
Last night you were in my room
C# E F# G# – F# E F# C#
And now my bedsheets smell like you
C#-C# C# C#-E-F#-G# C#- E F# F#
Every day discovering something brand new
E F# G# F# E F#-C#
I’m in love with your body
C# C# E E F# F# G# G#
Ooh I, ooh I, ooh I, ooh I
E F# G# F# E F#-C#
