 [Verse 1]
G
Lovely bones, won't you
take me home 'cause I'm
C    G
lonely
    G
And hold me close,
you're my only ghost,
          C     Em
come on, haunt me
           C    G Gsus4
'Cause I'm lonely
              G
And I've been gone
too many days
       G
And it starts to feel
               C   G
the same every morning
            G
And I don't recognize
this place
      G
Is it me or have I changed?
       C     Em
They ignore me
                  C    G
And that makes me lonely

[Pre-Chorus]
    G    G/F# Em
And when I    hear
my name
  Em
I wish that it was
                  D
you who's calling out,
 D7  G G G G
mmmm

[Chorus]
G G G    G   G
   There she goes
                      Bm/F#
Like I've never been alone
                      F
Like I've had it all along
                 C
And every time I go away
  D#               G
I hate that it's a day

That I never see your
Bm/F#
face
                  F
I'm lost in outer space
And when I'm looking
C
down below
     D#       G
Oh, there she goes

[Verse 2]
          G
I've been floating
around
every city and town
 Bm/F#
Cars and bars, I can't
figure out
          F
Why these crowded rooms
                 C     D#
feel empty without you
      G
Every name, every face,
Oh, they all start to fade
away
Bm/F#
Into the back of my mind
as I lie awake
F
Thinking 'bout running
      C
back to you
     D#
So I packed my bags, I'm
taking off, I'm coming home

[Chorus]
D         G
There she goes
                      Bm/F#
Like I've never been alone
                      F
Like I've had it all along
                 C
And every time I go away
  D#               G
I hate that it's a day
                      Bm/F#
That I never see your face
                  F
I'm lost in outer space
                     C
And when I'm looking down
below
     D#
Oh, there she
G   Bm/F#  F C D#
goes

[Bridge]
G
  Oh, there she goes
            Bm/F#
Out of the blue
            F
She comes around
                C
She turned my whole
     D#     G
life upside down
            Bm/F#
Out of the blue
             F
Out of the clouds
And I can't stop it
 C
now

[Chorus]
                G
Oh, there she goes
                      Bm/F#
Like I've never been alone
                      F
Like I've had it all along
                 C
And every time I go away
  D#               G
I hate that it's a day
                      Bm/F#
That I never see your face
                  F
I'm lost in outer space
                     C
And when I'm looking down
below
     D#       G
Oh, there she goes

How to play There She Goes: key, chords and progression

There She Goes by Benson Boone is built around C major (no sharps or flats), with 10 chords in all: G, C, Em, Gsus4, G/F#, D, D7, Bm/F#, F and D#.

The backbone of the song is G – Bm/F# – F – C (V – vii – IV – I in C major). In solfa, that is soh – te – fah – doh. Practise these 4 changes until they feel natural and you can play most of it.

Good to know: Bm/F#, F and D# are played as barre or movable shapes on guitar. Practise the change into them slowly; on piano and ukulele the same chords are easier.
