I Like Ukuleles
Joe Brown
Oh, [C] I like ukuleles, they [D7] always make you smile.
What [G7] ever trouble comes your way,
it’ll [C] be O [C#dim7] Kay in a [Dm] little while. [G7]
Just [C] plick a little tune now, it’s [D7] easy if you try.
Just a [G7] couple of chords and a flick of the wrist [Ebdim7] |
[F#dim7] and you [G7] start to wonder [C] why
You’ve never [F] tried this before. It’ll [C] open a door,
To [D7] something that you thought you couldn’t [G7] do [D7] | [G7]
And [F] take it from [C] me, that [F] little jumping [C] flea.
Will [D7] cheer you up and chase away your [G7] blues [D7] | [G7]
Chorus:
So give me a [C] uke - I want a [B7] u-ku-[C] le-le .
[A7] It speaks to me saying [Dm] please, please [A7] play [Dm] me.
[G7] All through the day, and [C] all on my own.
[A7] I’ll be [D7] strumming away ‘til the [G7] cows [D7] come [G7] home
So [C] play your ukulele. Don’t [D7] keep it to yourself.
Your [G7] moans and groans will fade away.
[C] They should [C#dim7] stick’em on the [Dm] national [G7] health.
I [C] love my ukulele. It’s al [D7] ways been a friend.
I’ll [G7] hold it tight and keep it close, right to the very [C] end.
