John Legend ~ "Ordinary People"
This is my first tab, but I'm pretty confident in it. A lot of these chords are very
(e.g., Bbmaj7 and Bbmaj9), you'll probably notice a distinctly more exact sound when you
them where I've indicated.
Feel free to send me any questions or comments. Thanks.

Intro:
------
Bb69
Bb69
Verse 1:
--------
Girl I'm in love with you, but this ain't the honey moon.
Fadd2
We're past the infatuation phase.
We're right in the thick of love. At times we get sick of love.
Fmaj13
It seems like we argue every day.
Prechorus:
----------
I know I've misbehaved and you've made your mistakes
and we've both still got room left to grow.
And though love sometimes hurts, I still put you first.
And we'll make this thing work but I think we should take it slow.
Chorus:
-------
We're just ordinary people. We don't know which way to go.
'cause we're ordinary people, maybe we should take it slow.
Take it slow, oh oh. This time we'll take it slow.
Fmaj13
Take it slow, oh oh. This time we'll take it slow.
Verse 2:
--------
This ain't a movie, naw. No fairy tale conclusion, y'all.
It gets more confusing every day.
Oh, sometimes it's heaven sent, then we head back to hell again.
We kiss then we make up on the way.
Prechorus:
----------
I hang up, you call. We rise and we fall,
and we feel like just walking away.
But as our love advances, we take second chances.
Though it's not a fantasy, I still want you to stay.
Chorus:
-------
We're just ordinary people. We don't know which way to go.
'cause we're ordinary people, maybe we should take it slow.
Take it slow, oh oh. This time we'll take it slow.
Take it slow, oh oh. This time we'll take it slow.
Bridge:
-------
Take it slow.
/
Maybe we'll live and learn. Maybe we'll crash and burn.
Maybe you'll stay; maybe you'll leave; maybe you'll return.
/
Maybe another fight; maybe we won't survive;
But maybe we'll grow. We never know, baby, you and I.
Chorus:
-------
We're just ordinary people. We don't know which way to go.
'cause we're ordinary people, maybe we should take it slow.
Take it slow, oh oh. This time we'll take it slow.
Take it slow, oh oh. This time we'll take it slow.
Outro:
------
Take it slow, oh oh.
This time we'll take it slow.
Take it slow, oh oh.
This time we'll take it slow.
Take it slow, slow. This time we'll take it slow.
Fmaj13
Take it slow, oh oh. This time we'll take it slow.
