------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is based on dcolspector's fantastic guitar tab. The song sounds great on uke, so I figured I'd tab it out for anyone who doesn't want to look up the vast number of chords in this song. Enjoy!

C                            A7
   Neither the flowers on the hill,

       Dm              Fm
Or the moonlight on the sea,

     C   F#-5       F    Dm
Have ever looked so blue.

    C   F#dim        Fm6 C
And everything looks new again,

        E7    C     F
In that old familiar way.

    C           A7
The view from my room,

       Dm          Fm
Of the ships on the bay,

            C      F#-5         F       Dm
Had come to bore me through and through.

         C    F#dim    Fm6 C
But they suddenly seem new again,

        Gm   C7    F
In that old familiar way.

    E7       F        G               G7      C
The delicate ballet of blossoms falling off a tree,

    G#                      D#
Had long gone unnoticed by me.

    E7              F            C
I'm stunned by what now I finally see.

     D7
It's amazing the wonders you can find,

        G7
Just by stepping outside.
C G F C
          C          A7
There's a skip in my step,

    Dm            Fm
a divine state of joy,

   C    F#-5    F   Dm
In everything I do.

      C    F#dim   Fm6 C
Cause I am feeling new again,

        E7    C     F
In that old familiar way.

          C             A7
When I'm awoken from my dreams,

     Dm            Fm
By a cuckoo on the roof,

  C      F#-5    F     Dm
I always join in too. (Cuckoo!)

    C     F#dim        Fm6 C
And every sound sounds new again,

        Gm  C7       F
In that old familiar way.

    E7             F               G            G7     C
The life I used to know when I was busy, always on the go,

G#                      D#
Left me with nothing to show.

E7              F              C
Now I feel that I can honestly say,

    D7
I'm living a suitable life.

           G7
I'm glad I finally got it right.
