Ready Or Not Ukulele

(ver. 1)
Jackson Browne
CAPO: 4th Fret (Original Key is Ab)

C
Someone's gonna have to explain it to me
    F                 C
I'm not sure what it means
   F                            C      Am
My baby's feelin' funny in the morning
             C                G        F
She's havin' trouble gettin' into her jeans
    C
Her waistline seems to be expanding
             F                         C
Although she never feels like eatin' a thing
  F                            C       Am
I guess we'll reach some understanding
        C            G           F
When we see what the future will bring


  C
I met her in a crowded bar-room
             F                 C
One of those typical Hollywood scenes
      F                  C      
I was doing my very best Bogart
    Am           C               G        F
But I was having trouble getting into her jeans.
   C
I punched an unemployed actor
  F                C
Defending her dignity
     F                                       C        Am
Then he stood up and knocked me through that bar-room door
         C         G         F
And that girl came home with me.


CHORUS I:
    F                           C
Now baby's feelin' funny in the mornin'
    Am                          C
She says she's got a lot on her mind
F                      C
Nature didn't give any warnin'
                D                             G
Now she's gonna have to leave her wild ways behind
    F                            C
She says she doesn't care if she never spends
        F                          C
Another night running loose on the town (she's gonna be a mother)
F                 C                Am
Take a look in my eyes and tell me brother
      C            G   F
If I look like I'm ready

      Instrumental

  C
I told her I had always lived alone
      F               C
And I probably always would
     F                   C        Am
That all I wanted was my freedom
        C                G     F
And she told me that she understood
       C
But I let her do some of my laundry
        F                         C
And she slipped a few meals in-between
    F                              C         Am
The next thing I remember, she was all moved in
          C            G         F
And I was buyin' her a washing machine.


CHORUS II:
    F                           C
Now baby's feeling funny in the mornin'
    Am                          C
She says she's got a lot on her mind
F                          C
Nature didn't give her any warning
                  D                       G
But she's feelin' better about it all the time
    F                         C
She says she's ready for some meaning
      F                   C
After all of her running around
F                          C           Am
Bless my soul, she's got a rock-n-roll band
         C              G        F
Man, I'm thinkin' 'bout settlin' down
F                          C           Am
Bless my soul, she's got a rock-n-roll band
         C              G        F      C
Man, I'm thinkin' 'bout settlin' down
