Electric Light Orchestra
I'm Alive (1980)
(Jeff Lynne)


Hello ukulele players! I originally submitted this as a guitar tab 
I now edited it a little and hope it works for ukulele, too. 
But I'm not sure whether the chords I suggest make sense for the ukulele. 
If you have any suggestions to make as to how to improve this tab, 
don't hesitate to send a message. Enjoy!
