Tea Leaf Green - Taught To Be Proud Ukulele

Verse 1:

      Am           F           C           C   
I was taught to be proud of where I come from
F           C         Am          D  
And I'm so sad that I'm the only one.
Am             F                   C        C    
Like a cold preacher boy talking only to himself
F            C                D          D       D
How did he think that he got to promised lands?

Sometimes I'm confused and I don't know where I'm going,
Mistaking gentle rivers for that cold wind a-blowing.
I'm always sure of an angel when she gets here,
But I never see her coming and I miss her when she disappears.



Chorus: 

C             F
Gone, gone, gone,
C              C
Not gone for long,
            C            F           C           C
If you're taught to be proud of where you come from.

Gone, gone, gone,
Not gone for long,
If you're taught to be proud of where you come from.



Verse 2:

       Am        F                   C               C
It's hard to be cool when you're playing for the prophets;
       F       C             Am            D 
They really know if you got it or you lost it.
       Am         F               C                 C
I'll sing this song but I don't know where it came from,
   F                C                 D            D       D
Reminds me of a mountainside to stand upon and gently hum.



Chorus



Verse 3:

Sometimes I'm confused
I don't know where I'm going,
Mistaking gentle rivers for that cold wind a-blowing.
And I'm always sure of an angel when she gets here,
But I never see her coming and I miss her when she disappears.
