No Doubt - Don't Speak original version chords
Start Jamming...
I remember I used to [C] live at this [Bb] band house with Eric Stefani, Gwen's brother, and Adrian.
And [B] one morning I woke up and I went into Eric's room and he had this four track of this song and Gwen had just sung on it.
[Bb] And he said, you know, play guitar on this.
[Ab] And it was kind of the first early version of Don't Speak.
The verses were a little bit [B] different, but pretty much the vibe was there.
[Bb] The choruses were almost exactly [B] perfect.
And [E] the song went through a lot of different changes and it kind of evolved.
We [Gb] wanted to play you the original version of the [A] song because it's [Ab] really beautiful.
And the thing is that we were just these kids in a garage with the record company saying write songs.
And we didn't know what we were doing.
We were just doodling around and trying to write music that we liked.
And [N] everybody had a suggestion and a way to do things.
And so this is one of the many versions.
It [Eb] went like something like this.
[Dm] [Fm]
[Cm] [Eb] [Fm]
[Bb] [Cm] I can see it all in the night blink.
I [Gm] know everything about how you [Ab] are.
I [Eb] can understand exactly [Gm] how you think.
Between [Db] you and me it's not [Cm] very far.
[Eb] Aside, [Dm] aside, [Db] you [Ab] and I.
[Cm] With many, many years [Gm] behind us, even [Ab] words pass us [Eb] by.
Because [Eb] we're, we're always [Dm] together and [Fm] we, we will [Cm] be forever.
You're [Eb] such a special [Dm] treasure.
[Db] You [Gm] and I [Fm] don't speak.
[Bbm] I know just what [Eb] you're saying.
[C] So please [Bbm] stop explaining.
[C] It's nothing [Fm] new that I've heard.
No, no, no, no.
You and I don't speak.
[Bbm] I know [Eb] just what [C] you're saying.
So please [Bbm] stop explaining.
[C] There's nothing new that [Fm] I've heard.
And [N] it was like, like that.
So one important thing about that is that was, that was pre-breakup, okay?
So that was all about I know you so good.
We're gonna be together forever.
Everything's wonderful.
[B] And [Ab] then we started working on a song.
And so Eric and I went in the garage [Gb] stubbornly.
Like, you know, very irritated about the situation.
And sat [B] down on the piano and we rewrote the verses.
And [N] Tony broke up with me and I rewrote the lyrics.
And those are the lyrics that you know.
[Cm]
You and me, [Gm] we used to be [Fm] together.
[Bb] Everyday [Gm] together.
[Fm] Always.
[Bb] [Cm] I really [Gm] feel [Fm] that I'm losing [Bb] my best friend.
[Gm] I can't believe [Cm] this could be [Fm] the [Bb] end.
