Hey guys! This is my first contribution to Ultimate Guitar! Hope you all enjoy :)
This is a great song by Sam Smith, and upcoming artist from the U.K.

LADIES: If you don't want to say "'cause I'm just a man" in the first verse, I have tried "'cause I'm just
 human" and it works if you figure out the correct way to pronounce it :)

***In most cases throughout the verse, the C note is held for a whole note (four beats).***

[Intro: Am, F, C x2]

[Verse 1:]
Am                       F                    C
Guess it's true, I'm not good at a one-night stand
Am              F                      C
But I still need love 'cause I'm just a man ("human")
Am                 F             C
These nights never seem to go to plan
Am                 G                        C       ..(G) 
I don't want you to leave, will you hold my hand?

[Chorus:]
G            Am  F       C    G 
Oh, won't you stay with me?
(G)       Am  F    C   G
'Cause you're all I need
(G)           Am    F            C    G
This ain't love, it's clear to see
(G)          Am    F      C   G
But darling, stay with me

[Verse 2:]
Am      F              C
     Why am I so emotional?
Am                  F                      C
No, it's not a good look, gain some self-control
   Am           F               C
And deep down I know this never works
Am                  G                C     ..(G) 
But you can lay with me so it doesn't hurt  

[Chorus:]
G            Am  F       C    G 
Oh, won't you stay with me?
(G)           Am  F    C   G
'Cause you're all I need
(G)          Am    F            C    G
This ain't love, it's clear to see
(G)          Am    F      C   G
But darling, stay with me

[Bridge: if you don't know how to approach this due to being unfamiliar, I suggest you 
listen to the track, it will help to understand what all the "woah"'s are 
supposed to sound like]

(G)      Am         F             C    G 
Ohhhhh, woahhh-oohh-woahh woahh oohh
(G)      Am          F               C    G
Ohhhh,   oohhhhhhh-woahhhh-woah-woahhhhh 
(G)       Am            F               C    G 
Ohhhh,      oohhhhhhh-woahhhh-woah-woahhhhh
(G)           Am          F       C    G 
Ohhhhhhhhhh, wwwooooooooahhhhhhhhhh

[Outro/Chorus: each chord strummed/played once--soft]
(G)             Am  F       C    G 
Oh, won't you stay with me?
(G)           Am  F    C   G
'Cause you're all I need
(G)           Am    F            C    G
This ain't love, it's clear to see
(G)         Am    F      C   
But darling, stay with me
