Chords

Was surprised to see this beautiful song, written by the Sembello brothers and first performed by George Benson, was not on UG. This arrangement is specifically for baritone ukulele. The same chords will work on guitar. Transpose +5 for soprano, concert and tenor ukuleles. The following alternate fingering is recommended: Cmaj7 5500 [Intro] Cadd9 D7sus2 D7sus4 Gmaj7 Dm7 Dm6 Cmaj7 Cmaj7 Am7 Cadd9 C Am Cmaj7 Am Cadd9 D7sus4 [Verse 1]
