Tonight We Fly Ukulele

(ver. 1)
The Divine Comedy
The general pattern for this song is F G Dm Am F F G E7 Am F F Am Dm F G7. 
Although, you can skip the d7 when you're playing the “over the…..over the” part.

  F         G  
Over the houses
Dm                     Am
The streets and the trees
F            F            G
Over the dogs down below
           E7      Am   
They'll bark at our shadows
     Dm          F           G7
As we float by on the breeze

G               Dm      
Tonight we fly
Am         F          
Over the chimney tops
F                G
Skylights and slates –
E7               Am
Looking into all your lives
Dm                 F
And wondering why
G7                           F
Happiness is so hard to find

F           G        Dm       Am
Over the doctor, over the soldier
F           F     G     E7      
Over the farmer, over the poacher
Am          F        F        Am
Over the preacher, over the gambler
Dm            F        F        G
Over the teacher, over the rambler
Dm         Am       F        F
Over the lawyer, over the dancer
G           E7       Am           F       F         Am
Over the voyeur, over the builder and the destroyer,
Dm         F           G7        F
Over the hills and far away

G       Dm
Tonight we fly
Am           F
Over the mountains
F                  G
The beach and the sea
E7          Am         F
Over the friends that we've known
       F                Am
And those that we now know
Dm           F        G7       F
And those who we've yet to meet

G           Dm
And when we die
Am   F        F
Oh, will we be
G        E7
That disappointed
Am   
Or sad
F                  F
If heaven doesn't exist
Am                  Dm
What will we have missed
 F                             G7   
This life is the best we've ever had

You can also make it more original at the end by strumming the D7 down and start 
the decrease the speed and then finally add the G. 

first tab so don't be too harsh on me.
