The World's Greatest Ukulele

(ver. 1)
R. Kelly
All of the tabs that I looked at for this song are OK, but are all different, and weird chords
are used in some when there is no need. So I've done my version, it's not perfect, but
very close. Please comment/correct this piece, I want to get it perfect, because it is 
an inspiring song, and it feels awesome to play it acoustic.

In the pre-chorus, I wasn't sure about the Cadd9, a D fits there OK but it fits better
into the chorus, I just couldn't quite find the perfect chord for it, though the Cadd9
the job
