Blue Rodeo – 5 Days In May (Ukulele)

Em
They met in a hurricane

D
Standing in the shelter out of the rain

Am                          C
She tucked a note into his hand

Em
Later on they took his car

D
Drove on down where the beaches are

Am                         C
He wrote her name in the sand

G              F            C       D
Never even let go of her hand

Em
Somehow they stayed that way

D
For those days in May

Am                                 C
Made all the stars around them shine

Em
Funny how you can look in vain

D
Living on nerves and such sweet pain

Am                          C
The loneliness that cuts so fine

G                      F                  C        D
To find the face you've seen a thousand times

C
Sometimes the world begins

C
To set you up on your feet again

Bm                           D
It wipes the tears from your eyes

C
How will you ever know

C
The way that circumstances go

Bm                           D
Always going to hit you by surprise

  Am
I know my past

  G
You were there

  C
In everything I've done

             Em
You are the one

Em
Looking back it's hard to tell

D
Why they stood while others fell

Am                         C
Spend your life working it out

Em
All I know is one cloudy day

D
They both just ran away

Am                              C
Rain on the windshield heading South

G              F                  C        D
She loved the lines around his mouth

C
Sometimes the world begins

C
To set you up on your feet again

Bm                          D
It wipes the tears from your eyes

C
How will you ever know

C
The way that circumstances go

Bm                            D
Always going to hit you by surprise

Am
I know my past

G
You were there

C
In everything I've done

            Em
You are the one
