[Verse 1]
See honey I'm not fine,
And I haven't been
for a long time,
But I'm beginning
to believe,
That only you could
help me overcome.
[Verse 2]Cmaj7
It's like nothing's real,
And it hasn't been for
Asus2
a vast expanse of
time and space,
Fmaj7
But in the light of
your gorgeous face,
Gadd11
I can be distracted
Cmaj7
for a while, ooh ooh.
[Verse 3]Cmaj7
No I'm not all right,
I'll tell you since
Asus2
you're asking,
Fmaj7
I was hoping you'd
rush in
Gadd11
To save me from the
axe and chopping block,
Cmaj7
ooh ooh.
[Verse 4]
I'm used to life just
Cmaj7
being cruel,
Like it will throw
Asus2
you out in front,
Fmaj7
That would merit
most love,
Gadd11 S
While you know it's
F
a mistake aaaah.
[Verse 5]C
Honey I'm not fine,
And I haven't been
Am
for a long time,
F
But I'm beginning
to believe,
G
That only you could
C
help me overcome.
[Interlude]C
Ooooh,
Am
Ooh, oooh,
F
Even if this hate
will last,
G
We will try we will
C
survive, ooh ooh.
C
Ooooh,
Am
Ooh, oooh,
F
In this dried out
patch of dirt,
G
We will thrive we
C
will survive, stay alive.
[Outro]C
oh honey I'm not fine,
And I haven't been
Am
for a long time,
F
But I’m beginning
to believe,
G
That only you can
C
help me overcome.

How to play I’m Not Fine: key, chords and progression
These are I’m Not Fine chords by Jasper Steverlinck on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar, and Keyboard.
I’m Not Fine by Jasper Steverlinck keeps coming home to F major (one flat: B♭). You need 8 chords: Cmaj7, Asus2, Fmaj7, Gadd11, F, C, Am and G.
Most of the song cycles through C – Am – F – G (V – iii – I – II in F major). In solfa, that is soh – mi – doh – reh. Get these 4 changes smooth and the rest comes quickly.
Good to know: Gadd11 and F are played as barre or movable shapes on guitar. Practise the change into them slowly; on piano and ukulele the same chords are easier.
