I've been listening to Ingrid Michaelson's new album, "Everybody", nonstop lately, and the title song is probably my favorite. The only problem is that I can't find the chords anywhere and I've never found chords on my own. (Although I have been watching live videos and trying to just read her fingers. The song has the chords F and G.)
If someone could help me I'd be totally grateful!
 
I watched and played with some of the live videos and I'm pretty sure she's not using standard tuning.

To my ear the chords are B, E and F or some variation of them. But when I watch she appears to be using C, F and G chord shapes if your uke is tuned GCEA. That would mean her uke is tuned down 1/2 step from standard tuning.

If you want to play along to the recording, use B, E and F, or tune down to F#BD#G# and use C, F and G shapes.

If you're not playing with the recording, the chord progression appears to be simple, just combinations of I, IV and V.

Hope this helps.
