Biography:
Alexander George "Alex" Clare (born 14 September 1985) is a British singer and songwriter from south-west London now living in north-west London, UK. The Too Close Songfacts says that he took up the trumpet and drums as a youngster, but as he grew older he graduated to guitar-based songwriting, playing open-mike nights with original material. Clare dated Amy Winehouse for a year during these early days, after meeting her during a performance at The Hawley Arms in Camden, North London.

UNCONDITIONAL - ALEX CLARE - TAB BY RYNUX
NO CAPO / STANDARD TUNING
CHORDS TO KNOW : C - G# - F - G (Bare chords)
You can play it with power chords too (that's what I advise on electric guitars)
The whole song, intro-verse-bridge, sounds the same based on those 3 chords.
C : 799877 (x4)
G#: 466544 (x2)
F : 133211 (x2)
G : 355433 (x1 once in the song)
RHYTHM
U = Up
D = Down / sD = small Down (you don't strum every string but only 2/3 firsts)
sD-D--sDsDsD (x4 for C, x2 for G# and F)
or
U-D--sDsDsD (x4 for C, x2 for G# and F)
at the end of the BRIDGE ( 1st "it's what we all dream of"), you stop the 'fast' rhythm to only play
once by chord (1 F strum, and 1 G strum, yes G and not G#, only exception in the song)
INTRO/VERSE (Start C earlier than lyrics) - C/G#/F
C
- I don't, no I don't know enough, I don't know nothing at all
G# F
But, I know this good love, good love
C
- You don't, no, you don't need enough, you don't need nothing at all
G# F
But, you need this good love, good love
CHORUS (C/G#)
C
You need love, the sum of mine, got no time for ache, that's just fine
G#
Life's too short, to be angry, take it out, take it out on me
BRIDGE (C/G#/F/G)
C
Get to know ya, I wanna play a part, I wanna know every inch of your heart
G#
So let rain, a love supreme, I want the unconditional kind
F G
It's what we all dream of, it's what we all dream of
VERSE (C/G#/F)
C
- I don't, no I don't know enough, I don't know nothing at all
G# F
But, I know this good love, good love
C
- You don't, no, you don't need enough, you don't need nothing at all
G# F
But, you need this good love, good love, Woa, woa, woa
CHORUS (C/G#)
C
Be it now, If you wanna be, I got something to give, no negativity
G#
Don't know what it is, but, it is something good, and I won't let it lie, or be misunderstood
BRIDGE
C
There is nothing, nothing left to say, so, I show my actions, in the deepest way
G#
The riddle of you, so selfless, never be broken
F G
I feel helpless, feel helpless
VERSE (C/G#/F) x2
C
- I don't, no I don't know enough, I don't know nothing at all
G# F
But, I know this good love, good love
C

G# F
But, you need this good love, good love, Woa, woa, woa
C
- I don't, no I don't know enough, I don't know nothing at all
G# F
But, I know this good love, good love
C
- You don't, no, you don't need enough, you don't need nothing at all
