Neil Diamond – If You Know What I Mean (Ukulele)

A                   D7                  A
When the night returns just like a friend.......

C                 D7                A
When the evening comes to set me free............

C           D7
When the quiet hours that wait........

Bm     Bm   C   A    C
Beyond the day make ..............

         Am7        A     D6  D7
Peaceful sounds in me ...................

A                   D7             A
Took a drag from my last cigarrette ........

C                   D7                 A
Took a drink from a glass of old red wine.......

C            D7
I closed my eyes and I could ......

Bm   Bm  C   A
Make it real and

C       Am7          D7
Feel it one more time  ........

Bm
Can You hear it Babe?.........(Riff1)

D7
Can you hear it Babe?.........(Riff2)

      C                    A
From  another Time    From another place

         A               D7       A
Can you remember it Babe?

A                                    Am7
And the radio played like a carnival tune

                                  A
As we lay in our bed in the other room

                                        C
When we gave it away for the sake of a dream

C
In a penny arcade...................

                     A          A*    Am       A
If you know what I mean...................If you know what I mean Babe...

A    C     A
..........................................

A             D7               A        A/G
Heres to the songs we used to sing........

C                  D7              A       G/D
and heres to the times we used to know...........

C              D7
Its hard to hold them

        Bm   Bm C A    C
In our arms again but

C           Am7    D7
Hard to let them go.

Bm
Do You hear it Babe?.........(Riff1)

D7
Do you hear it Babe?.........(Riff2)

      C                    A
It was another Time    It was another place

         A               D7       A  D7 A D7 A
Do you remember it Babe?

A                                    Am7
And the radio played like a carnival tune

                                  A
As we lay in our bed in the other room

                                        C
When we gave it away for the sake of a dream

C
In a penny arcade...................

                     A          A*    Am       A
If you know what I mean...................If you know what I mean

C                              A      C
