Chords

I'm playing my uke tuned down to dGBE (as I have a low voice) but using chord shapes as for gCEA - so as this tab here is for standard but rather for comfortable playing on the ukulele. Some notes are transcribed octave lower or octave higher as I've got only 4 strings, heh.. Enjoy!

G#maj7             D#7add4
A Desert road from Vegas to nowhere,

Fm9                    D#add4
Some place better than where you've been,

G#maj7                D#7add4
A coffee machine that needs some fixing,

Fm9                    D#add4
In a little cafe' just around the bend.
[Chorus]
C#m6 D#7   D#m6   Faug

G#maj7             D#7add4
A hot dry wind blows right through me,

Fm9                   D#add4
The baby's crying and I can't sleep,

G#maj7                  D#7add4
But we both know that a change is coming,

Fm9               D#add4
Coming closer, sweet release.
[Chorus]
