Whats Shakin On The Hill Ukulele

(ver. 1)
Nick Lowe
D A Bm F#m G A* 
D A Bm F#m G A*
D A Bm F#m G    D    G

Verse 1
        D     Bm                        G               Bm      G A* 
At a party given for the gay and debonair
                D               Bm              G          A*           D      A Bm F#m G A*
There's a cool wind blowing in the sound of happy people
        D     Bm                        G                Bm G A* 
At a party given for the gay and debonair
                   D     Bm                G
There's an organ blowing in the breeze 
                D              Bm                       G A* 
For the dance that's hid behind the trees
         D       Bm             G               A*                    D A Bm F#m G A*
But I ain't never gonna see what's shakin' on the hill 
D A Bm F#m G A*

Verse 2
         D     Bm                                 G         A*                     D A Bm F#m G A*
That I someday may be joining in's just wishful thinking 
        D                Bm                     G                          Bm G A* 
Cos admission's only guaranteed to a favoured few
                D            Bm                    G
There's a waiting list and plenty more
        D               Bm                      G A* 
In a long line leading to the door
        D Bm             G                      A*                      D A Bm F#m G G D D
So I'll never know for sure what's shakin' on the hill

Bridge
             A                          G               G7 
I'm too blue to be played with and I get heartache
                   D
and so they tell me no dice
        A                       E
it isn't allowed in that carefree crowd
        E7                                      A     G F#m A
to be seen with tears in your eyes

Verse 3
        D               Bm                      G               A*              D A Bm F#m G A*
So I make out I don't wanna know but I'm the pretender
                D               Bm              G                                       Bm G A* 
Kicking cans round while that happy sound keeps cracking on
                D       Bm              G
Though I long so strong to be inside
                D          Bm           G     A*
With the blues is where I do reside
        D Bm            G                  A*     D A Bm F#m G      A*                D A Bm F#m 
So I'll forever be denied what's shakin' on the hill,               what's shakin' on the hill 
G A*              Bm              G  A
What's shakin' on the hiiiiill
D      A       Bm     F#m          G                          A*                    D A Bm F#m G
What's shakin', What's shakin', What's shakin', what's shakin', shaking on the hill
A             D      A   Bm   F#m            G                       A D
(Slow) What's shakin' on the hi-i -i il    l     Mmmm
