Ukulele Tabs and Songs

On this page I am going to be putting some ukulele songs and tabs for the people how play the uke.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here is a song called the unicorn song, here are the tabs for the uke:

 C                      Dm
   A long time ago when the earth was green
              G                          C
   There was more kinds of animals than you'd ever seen
          C                         Dm
   They'd run around free while the world was being born
            C                            Dm G   C
   But the loveliest of them all was the u--ni--corn

Chorus:
             C                       Dm
   There was green alligators   and long necked geese
        G                            C
   Some humpy back camels  and some chimpanzees
   C                               Dm
   Cats and rats and elephants but sure as you're born
       C                        Dm G   C
   The loveliest of all was the u--ni--corn


   But the Lord seen some sinnin' and it caused him pain
   He said "Stand back - I'm gonna make it rain
   So hey brother Noah, I'll tell you what to do,
   Build me a floating zoo."

Chorus:
   And you take two alligators  and a couple of geese
   Two hump back camels and two chimpanzees
   Two cats, two rats, two elephants but sure as you're born
   Noah, don't you forget my u--ni--corn.


   Now Noah was there and he answered the callin'
   And he finished up the ark as the rain started fallin'
   And he marched in the animals two by two
   And he sung out as they went through

Chorus:
  "Hey Lord, I got you two alligators  and a couple of geese
   Two hump back camels and two chimpanzees
   Two cats, two rats, two elephants but sure as you're born
   Lord, I just don't see your u--ni--corns."


   Well, Noah looked out through the driving rain,
   But the unicorns were hiding - playing silly games,
   They were kickin' and a-spashin' while the rain was pourin'
   Oh them foolish unicorns.
[Repeat second chorus]

   And then the ark started moving and it drifted with the tide,
   And the unicorns looked up from the rock and cried,
   And the water came up and sort of floated them away,
   That's why you've never seen a unicorn to this day.

Chorus:
   "You'll see a lot of alligators  and a whole mess of geese
   You'll see hump back camels and chimpanzees
   You'll see cats and rats and elephants but sure as you're born
   You're never gonna see no u--ni--corns."

Here is the video of it:

I've already posted this in my HOME page but I'm going to re-post it because I think it is an amazing video:




------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Here is another really cool video, because two people are doing a duet, one on earth and one in space.
Here is the uke tab and video:

[Intro]
Em, D, Am, C, D
 
[Verse 1]
Em   D               Am
  On solid fuel and wires,
         C       D          Em
Turn the key and light the fire,
       D                Am   C   D
We're leaving Earth today.
 
 
[Verse 2]
Em      D              Am
This rocket's burning bright,
        C       D       Em
We'll soon be out of sight,
        D          Am   C  D
And orbiting in Space.
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
D                 Am   
Pushed back in my seat,
            G    
Look out my window,
D          C
There goes home.
D                  Am
That ball of shiny blue,
       G         D         C        
Houses everybody anybody ever knew.
 
 [Chorus]
               G          D
So  sing your song, I'm listening,
Am                     C
Out where stars are glistening,
      Em               D                 C 
I can hear your voices bouncing off the Moon.
(C          G       D
 If you could see our nation,
         Am         C            D
From the International Space Station,
Em               D                C 
You'd know why I want to get back soon (Get back soon).
 
   [Verse 3]
Em        D                  Am
Eighteen thousand miles an hour,
            C          D      Em
Fueled by science and solar power,
     D              Am   C D
The ocean's racing past.
 
 [Verse 4]
Em    D            Am
At half a thousand tons,
          C       D      Em 
Ninety minutes, Moon to Sun,
   D               C        D
A bullet can't go half as fast.
 
 [Pre-Chorus]
D                 Am
Floating from my seat,
              G
Look out my window,
D            C
There goes home (There goes home).
D                       Am
That brilliant ball of blue,
     G                 D              C       
Is where I'm from and also where I'm going to.
 
 [Chorus]
               G          D
So  sing your song, I'm listening,
Am                     C
Out where stars are glistening,
      Em               D                C 
I can hear your voices bouncing off the Moon.
(C          G       D
 If you could see our nation,
         Am         C            D
From the International Space Station,
Em               D                C 
You'd know why I want to get back soon (Get back soon).
 
 [Bridge]
A              E                   D
All black and white just fades to gray,
          A           E              D
Where the Sun rises sixteen times a day (Day),
A              E                   D
You can't make out borders from up here,
           A           E              D
Just a spinning ball within a tiny atmosphere (Atmosphere).
 
  [Pre-Chorus]
D                  Am
Pushed back in my seat,
               G
Look out my window,
 
D            C
Here comes home (Home).
D                         Am
What once was fueled by fear,
           G             D             C         
Now has fifteen nations orbiting together here.

 [Chorus
               G          D
So  sing your song, I'm listening,
Am                     C
Out where stars are glistening,
      Em               D                 C 
I can hear your voices bouncing off the Moon.
(C          G       D
 If you could see our nation,
         Am         C            D
From the International Space Station,
Em               D                C 
You'd know why I want to get back soon (Get back soon).
 
[Outro]
You'd know why I want to get back soon (Getting back to you, getting back to you),
You'd know why I want to get back soon (Getting back to you, getting back to you),
You'd know why I want to get back soon (Getting back to you, getting back to you),
You'd know why I want to get back soon.

I'm Yours, By Jason Maraz:

Verse:
      C
Well, you done done me and you bet I felt it
  G
I tried to be chill but you’re so hot that I melted
  Am                                     F
I fell right through the cracks, and I’m trying to get back
 
Verse:
          C
Before the cool done run out I’ll be giving it my best test
    G
And nothing’s gonna stop me but divine intervention
  Am                            F
I reckon it's again my turn to win some or learn some
 
Chorus:
    C              G
But I won't hesitate no more,
            Am           F
No more, it cannot wait I’m yours
 
Interlude: C G Am F
 
Verse:
C
Well open up your mind and see like me
G
Open up your plans and darn you're free
Am                                   F
Look into your heart and you'll find love love love love
C
Listen to the music of the moment people dance and sing
G
We are just one big family
Am                                 F                         D7
It’s your god forsaken right to be loved, loved, loved, loved

 
Chorus:
C                 G
So, I won't hesitate no more,
         Am             F
No more, it cannot wait I’m sure
C                             G
There’s no need to complicate our time is short
Am                F
This is our fate, I’m yours
 
Bridge:
-d-do do you but do you, d-d-do but you want to come one
Scooch one over closer dear and I will nibble your ear
Bap bap bap woooooo ho ho ooooh
 
Verse:
C
I've been spending' way too long checking' my tongue in the mirror
G
And bending' over backwards just to try to see it clearer
Am
My breath fogged up the glass
F
And so I drew a new face and laughed
C
I guess what I'm a saying’s there isn’t no better reason
G
To rid yourself of vanity and just go with the seasons
Am
It’s what we aim to do
F
Our name is our virtue
 
Chorus:
    C              G
But I won't hesitate no more,
            Am           F
No more, it cannot wait I’m yours
 
Verse:
     C
Well open up your mind and see like me
G
Open up your plans and darn you're free
Am                                    G
Look into your heart and you'll find, that the sky is yours
 
So please don’t, don’t please don’t
- There’s no need to complicated -
Cause our time is short 
This is, this is, this is our fate
I’m yours
