Chords with lyrics
Tuning: G C E A (G C E A)
Sung to the tune of My Favorite Things
Note: F#maj7b5
That looks hairy, but on ukulele it's just this, which barres nicely into the B:
F#maj7b5 - 2423
Note: E6 ("Spoonfuls of yoghurt...")
Coming out of the Emaj7 on ukulele, this is really sweet:
Emaj7 - 1302
E6 - 1102
Note: A6 Adim ("When the food's gone")
On ukulele I'm playing these two chords, and I'm not sure what best to call them:
A6 - 2420
Admin - 2320
