--------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: maguri And the Grass Won't Pay No Mind (1969) (Neil Diamond) From: "Back in Memphis" Hello ukulele players! I originally submitted this as a guitar tab but UG automatically added my submission to their ukulele tabs. I now edited it a little and hope it works for ukulele, too. But I'm not sure whether the chords I suggest make sense for the ukulele. If you have any suggestions to make as to how to improve this tab, don't hesitate to send a message. Enjoy! This was meant for guitar, capo 1st fret. If you want to play this song in its original key: use the transpose button: -1 notes in square brackets: single notes --------------------------------------------------------------------------- | C | % | % | % |

C              [E-F] G
  Listen easy,         you can hear God calling

C         F               G       F  G
  Walking barefoot by the stream

C              [E-F] G
  Come on to me,       your hair's softly falling

C       F            G       
  On my face as in a dream

        F                C
And the time will be our time

        F                  C       Csus C
And the grass won't pay no mind

C              [E-F] G
  Saying nothing,       lying where the sun is

C         F             G
   Baking down upon our sides

C                 [E-F] G
  My lips touch you,       with their soft wet kisses

C            F           G       
  Your hands gentle in reply

        F                C
And the time will be our time

        F                  C          G
And the grass won't pay no mind

C               F
Child, touch my soul with your cries

        G                          C
And the music will know what we've found

C         F
I, hear a hundred good-byes

      C                   Dm
But today I hear only one sound

    C                      Dm
The moment we're living is now

Dm [break]
Now now now now now now now

C                    [E-F] G
    Young bird flying,       and a soft wind blowing

C           F               G
  Cools the sweat inside my palms

C               [E-F] G
   Close my eyes,       hear the flowers growing

C            F              G
  As you lay sleeping in my arms

        F                C
And the time will be our time

        F                  C       
And the grass won't pay no mind

       F                  C      
No the grass won't pay no mind
