Chords

An arrangement for baritone ukulele with a more melancholy-sounding chorus. The same chords will work on guitar. Other ukuleles try transposing up +5 (start on C) [Intro] G D G7sus4 C D D G D [Verse 1]
G         D            G7sus4    C
Here is a poem that my lady sent down

     D                    F   C
Some morning while I was away

G            D         G7sus4        C
Wrote on the back of a leaf that she found

D                     F   C  F  C
Somewhere around Monterey
[Verse 2]
G               D        G7sus4     C
And here is the key to a house far away

      D                   F     C
Where I used to live as a child

     G             D             G7sus4   C
They tore down the building when I moved away

    D                   F     C  F  C
And left the key unreconciled
[Chorus]
    Em          EmMaj7     Em7             C
And down in the canyon the smoke starts to rise

   Em           EmMaj7       Em7          C
It rides on the wind 'til it reaches your eyes

     Em             EmMaj7   Em7           C            Gsus4
When faced with the past the strongest man cries, cri-i-ies
[Instrumental Break]
G  D  G7sus4  C  D  D  F  C
(Hum melody...)
G D G7sus4 C D D F C F C [Chorus]
    Em          EmMaj7     Em7             C
And down in the canyon the smoke starts to rise

   Em           EmMaj7       Em7          C
It rides on the wind 'til it reaches your eyes

     Em             EmMaj7   Em7           C            Gsus4
When faced with the past the strongest man cries, cri-i-ies
[Verse 3]
    G         D          G7sus4      C
And here is a sunrise to set on your sill

    D                         F    C
The ghosts of the dawn moving near

     G                 D          G7sus4          C
They pass through your sorrow and leave you quite still

D                  F    C  F  C
Sitting among souvenirs
[Outro]
G            D            G7sus4       C
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo, doo doo doo, doo...

D                            F                       C
Doo doo doo, da doo doop, da doo doo doo doo doo doo doo...

G            D            G7sus4       C
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo, doo doo doo, doo...

D                            F                       C
Doo doo doo, da doo doop, da doo doo doo doo doo doo doo...

F                       C
Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo...
(Repeat and fade)
