Chords
Just a little note, I'm quite sure about the chords in the chorus, some voices may sing some notes I'm not
catching, but pretty much the structure is the one I wrote. I am not sure of verses and pre-choruses, because
it seems like he sits on the tonic (G), and at times sings an F natural, giving a G mixolydian vibe, so I
wrote G7sus4 which seems to fit. But apart from that, it doesn't seem to go anywhere else.
On the bridge, same thng, I think is just a G with some pentatonic stuff over it, and in a certain point the
piano plays something around the circle of fifth which I didn't quite grasp, but is always on a G bass.
Obviously, at the end of the bridge there is a modulation a half-step above, through his voices running up
cromatically, and I think is not possible to transribe it this way, so I just put Dbmaj9 at the beginning of
the chorus.
Another thing, on the last "she'll incinerate me" I wrote E7b5b9 which seems to make sense, as a
tritone substitution of Bb7, but he also sings a G (#9??) and a C (#5 or b13?), so feel free to play it as you
think is best. Last thing, on the last "but I can't help her giving me her sunshine smile" he "cromatically"
goes back to the key of G, so I just put Dbmaj9 and then Cmaj9 to finish it off.
Thanks for the attention and have fun!
She Put Sunshine - Jacob Collier (transcribed by Daniele Petrini)
[Verse 1]
G She put sunshine into my silhouette G Was feeling heavy and she got me drunk instead G Caught at a corner, line by line G7sus4 She's making me dream out loud G She put sunshine into my open mouth G Too many words gave me something to sing about G Morning to morning, rhyme by rhyme G She's giving me back my smile G7sus4 She's keeping me warm all the while
[Pre-Chorus]
G She knows just how to wake me G She paints me gold and shakes me
[Chorus]
Cmaj9 D Em7 I get a little lonely G D7 And she comes to me, she illuminates me, and Cmaj9 D Em7 And if she ever gets close to me D/F# G Well, it's plain to see A7 She'll incinerate me Cmaj9 G But I don't mind her giving me her sunshine smile
(Woah!)
[Verse 2]
G She put sunshine onto my internet G Connection was low, she put a ring on it G Colder and colder, crime to crime G7sus4 She's opening up windows G7sus4 To everything I don't know
[Pre-Chorus]
G She knows just how to fake me G She paints me bold and stakes me
[Chorus]
Cmaj9 D Em7 I get a little lonely G D7 And she comes to me, she illuminates me, and Cmaj9 D Em7 And if she ever gets close to me D/F# G Well, it's plain to see A7 She'll incinerate me Cmaj9 G But I don't mind her giving me her sunshine smile
