These are I’m Not Fine chords by Jasper Steverlinck on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar, and Keyboard.

[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

I’m Not Fine by Jasper Steverlinck is centred on F major (one flat: B♭). The song uses 8 chords: Cmaj7, Asus2, Fmaj7, Gadd11, F, C, Am and G.

The progression the song keeps returning to is C – Am – F – G (V – iii – I – II in F major). In solfa, that is soh – mi – doh – reh. Learn these 4 changes first and most of the song falls into place.

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.
