Ukulele [Am]

Parody of Delilah – Tom Jones

[C] But I was still loyal [G] to the uke that I bought last [C] week [E7]

[Am] At 9 AM when the sign on the store read [E7] open

[Am] I rushed in to see you on the wall by the [E7] door

[A] You [A7] hung there [Dm] gleaming

[Am] I felt the cash in my [E7] hand, (STOP)

And you hung no [Am] more [G7]

[C] My, my, my, uke [G] -ulele

[G] Why, why, [G7] why, uke [C] -ulele

[C] So be- [C7]-fore you [F] call me a crazy uke [Dm] whore

For-[C] give me, my old ukes, I [G had to buy just one [C] more

For-[Am] give me, my old ukes, I [E7] had to buy just one [Am] more [Dm] [Am]
