Nevada City Serenade Ukulele

(ver. 1)
Mischief Brew
This is tuned a half step down
D#G#C#F#A#D#
(Chords are written as if it were in standard tuning, for instance G=320033 C=032010 etc.)
G*= 202022 because i forgot what chord that is

I believe all good people should learn this song.

G             C             D             Em
Where did you come from and where did you go?
C                Em            G         D 
The rattlers are still and the ashes are cold.
G                C          D            Em
The stage, it is empty; the Union Halls, dark.
C                     Em             D             G
And the lights are so bright that I can't see the stars.

                    D                        Em
Ain't no heaven and hell in the Great By-And-By
                        C     G                D              G               
Where the dead they are laugh-ing, singin' and spillin' their wine.

G          C        D           Em
Seattle to Spokane, Missoula to Butte:
C                   Em         G          D
The spare-changer's stories so boring and true.
G                      C        D           Em           
Now the world ain't so lonesome without you around.
              C             Em             D            G
Hey, tell me, where can you camp where you can't hear a sound?

                    D                        Em
Ain't no heaven and hell in the Great By-And-By
                        C     G                D              G
Where the dead they are laugh-ing, singin' and spillin' their wine.
                      D                         G  G* Em
Oh, the stories we'll tell on our last and long ri-ii-hide
                         C    G                D              G
Where the dead they are laugh-ing, singin' and spillin' their wine.

(solo) rhythm is same as verse 1

G              C            D            Em
Now that God's gone and the Devil's in a hole,
     C                Em           G          D
It's Aces, Straights, Flushes with Johnny and Joe.
   G           C             D           Em
No masters, no Yard Bulls to chase a boy down.
             C              Em              D          G
He's gone to where the bums go when they're run out of town.

                    D                        Em
Ain't no heaven and hell in the Great By-And-By
                        C     G                D              G
Where the dead they are laugh-ing, singin' and spillin' their wine.
                     D                           Em
Say "So Long" to the rails, from the sage to the pine,
                        C     G                D              G     
While the dead they are laugh-ing, singin' and spillin' their wine.
                      D                         Em
Oh, the stories we'll tell on our last and long ride
                         C    G                D              G
Where the dead they are laugh-ing, singin' and spillin' their wine.

G            C             D             Em
Where do you come from and where did you go?
