Javier Bardem feat Shawn Mendes - Take A Look At Us Now

(from “Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile” soundtrack)

Capo: 4th fret

[Verse 1]
Bm G
You can pack your bags and start skipping town
A D F#
Hang up your hat when the show shuts down
Bm E
But when the world says you ain’t quite world-renowned
G A
Don’t count yourself out yet
F#
(La, la, la, la, la)
Bm G
When you hit that lonely and lowest low
A D F#
Well, up’s the only way left to go
Bm E
You’re meant to reinvent the show
G A Bm
So ain’t you glad we met?

[Pre-Chorus]
G A
Turn that dull and dusty solo
E A D
To a dazzling duet
D
La la la la
D
La la la la
D
La la la la

[Chorus 1]
C G
Maybe we started pretty small
D
But take a look at us now
A
Take a look at us now
C G
Suddenly standing ten feet tall
D
Take a look at us now
A
Take a look at us now
Bm G
Though we had no way to stay afloat
D A
We were scared and saying “That’s all she wrote”
C G
We’re ending on a sky-high note
E
Somehow
G A
Buddy, you were all it took
D
So take a look at us now

[Verse 2]
Bm G
When that perfect plan’s going off the rails
A D
A heap of trouble is on our tails
Bm E7
It’s time to polish up those scales
G A D
And give it all you’ve got
Bm
If you’re out of step
G
If you’re out of sync
A D
If you care too much what those critics think
Bm E7
Well, when you find your missing link
G A B
Don’t give it a second thought

[Pre-Chorus]
Em A
‘Cause in the center of the spotlight
Em A D
We just might have found our spot

[Chorus 2]
C G
Finding our luck with every leap
D
Take a look at us now
A
Take a look at us now
C G
The road could be scared, it could be steep
D
Take a look at us now
A
Take a look at us now
Bm G
Though we might be sunk upon at first glance
D A
Well, who’d have thunk that we had a chance
C G
And life could be a song and dance
E7
Somehow
G A
Buddy, you were all it took
D
So take a look at us now

[Bridge]
G Gm
So even when you’re terrified
D
Just find a smile a mile wide
E7
‘Cause bud, when you and I collide
A F#
Standing side by side
Bm G
We’re gonna take a great big bow
D B
Would you take a look at us now?

[Chorus 3]
D A
Give us a spotlight and a crowd
E B
Take a look at us now
D A
Ready to sing our song out loud
E B
Take a look at us now

[Instrumental]
C#m A E B
D A F#m F#

[Outro]
A B
Won’t you take a look at us
A B
Take a look at us
A B E
Take a look at us now
