[Verse 1]
C          C7     F         D7
Catch the rain even on a sunny day
C        G                Am
I swear I'm not excusing, I'll
 cross my heart to prove it
F                     Fm
But she seems tired 'cause
we've been through this

[Chorus]
C                         G          A7
And I know you said that we're not a thing
Dm                          G
But you're here that's the thing
C                          G       A7
And I'm not trying to give you a ring
Dm                            G
Well maybe on the phone if you let it sing
C                          A7
You're overcomplicating everything
F
When the lights go down don't
say I didn't warn ya
Fm
I don’t think that's legal
 in the state of California

[Verse 2]
C             C7
I've got you wrapped around
            F
my finger like a piece of ribbon
D
You just won't admit it that
          C
 you're smitten
G                   E
Hold on a minute, plеase,
            Am
won't you listen
F                    G
'Cause I'm not surе if you're
       C                C7
into me like I'm into you
                    F
I said a lot of stupid things in
                      D
 the winter once the ice got thinner
Gm              A#        A        F
But somehow we managed through the fall
G                               C
So I guess it's not that bad at all

[Chorus]
      G           A7
That we're not a thing
Dm                          G
But you're here that's the thing
C                          G       A7
And I'm not trying to give you a ring
Dm                            G
Well maybe on the phone if you let it sing
C                          A7
You're overcomplicating everything
F
When the lights go down
don't say I didn't warn ya
Fm
I don’t think that's legal
in the state of California

[Lil instumental part]

Dm7 G Em A7 C7 Dm7 G

[Bridge]
C
I'm going away'
F                         D
Did I forget to mention how
 long I'd stay?
C                       E7      A
Is that a question for another day?
F                Fm
But while we're away

[Chorus]
C
And I know you said that
  G          A7
 we're not a thing
Dm                          G
But you're here that's the thing
C                          G       A7
And I'm not trying to give you a ring
Dm
Well maybe on the phone
       G
 if you let it sing
C                          A7
You're overcomplicating everything
F
When the lights go down
don't say I didn't warn ya

How to play You’re Here That’s the Thing: key, chords and progression

You’re Here That’s the Thing by Beabadoobee is centred on F major (one flat: B♭). The song uses 17 chords: C, C7, F, D7, G, Am, Fm, A7, Dm, D, E and Gm and 5 more.

The backbone of the song is C – G – A7 – Dm (V – II – III7 – vi in F major). In solfa, that is soh – reh – mi – lah. Practise these 4 changes until they feel natural and you can play most of it.

Good to know: on guitar, F, Fm, Gm and A# need a barre or movable shape. Take the change into them slowly at first; piano and ukulele players have it easier.
