Drinking Song Ukulele

(ver. 1)
Rob Dougan
Intro:
c (<- just the one note)
                  Cadd9
I want to weave a musical spell
      E7sus4    C(Am)      Fmaj7                 G(-e)
That leaves you unwell and thinking of me every day
          C(-e)                  Am                    Dsus4   
I want to play you a tune that leaves you marooned and troubled
     F        G
Each time I'm away
            C                E           E7         Am                    B
Is there a melody that could lead you to me like a lullabied child that's asleep?
           C                    Am       
So for one moment in time, you'd find that you're mine
    Fmaj7       G           C
And softly I'd kiss you and weep


                   Cadd9
I want to write a simple song
       E7sus4        C(Am)         Fmaj7                     G(-e)
that's so frequently sung that you call me to have the thing banned
    C(-e)                   Am                    Dsus4 
It's charm so endears that whole nations cheer and sigh
     F           G
When you take my hand
            C                E           E7         Am                    B
Is there a melody that could lead you to me like a lullabied child that's asleep?
           C                    Am       
So for one moment in time you'd find that you're mine
    Fmaj7       G           C
And softly I'd kiss you and weep


             C             Am                 F
'Cause I'm a gambler that just wants to lose 
F                  Gsus4
and be allowed to leave 
       C              Am                  F          Gsus4
I'm a traveler - with one last mile - my journey is complete
           C                   Am                    F             Gsus4
I'm like a swallow that wants - one long last look - before flying east
C          G/B   Am          G         F         G        C
Last on my list - and then I quit - to kiss your lips and weep


                 Cadd9
I want to play a silver note 
     E7sus4         C(Am)
that fills you with hope
    Fmaj7                     G(-e)
And tames you to feed from my hand
  C(-e)                Am        
A turquoise chord that invites you to soar
    Dsus4       F        G
And fly... to a faraway land
  C                 E   E7           Am                    B        
A symphony that gently leads you - to sit and be still -  with me
     C            G/B   
And grief doesn't frighten me
    Am             G
The sadness try to blind me
    F         G            C
But I'm gonna kiss you and weep


             C             Am                 F
'Cause I'm a gambler that just wants to lose 
F                  Gsus4
and be allowed to leave 
       C              Am                  F          Gsus4
I'm a traveler - with one last mile - my journey is complete
           C                   Am                    F             Gsus4
I'm like a swallow that wants - one long last look - before flying east
C          G/B   Am          G         F         G        C
Last on my list - and then I quit - to kiss your lips and weep

 - solo -

            C                E           E7         Am                    B
Is there a melody that could lead you to me like a lullabied child that's asleep?
           C                    Am       
So for one moment in time, you'd find that you're mine
    Fmaj7       G           C
And softly I'd kiss you and weep

           C                    Am       
So for one moment in time, you'd find that you're mine
    Fmaj7       G           C
And softly I'd kiss you and weep


The (-e) chords are without the high e note.
