Busby Berkely Dreams Ukulele by The Magnetic Fields

Chords with lyrics

Tuning: G C E A (G C E A)

Magnetic Fields - Busby Berkeley Dreams


Standard tuning

For every C chord, add a high G (high E string, 3rd fret with your pinky). Also, if
you like, you can play G/C for the C chords -- it sounds nice. :)


Intro:

G D/F# C

C G/B D/A

Verse:

G        D/F#    C
I should have forgotten you long ago

C     G/B   D/A
But you're in every song I know

G      D/F#   C
Whining and pining is wrong and so

  Am      G/B
On and so forth, of course of course,

  C         D/A
But no, you can't have a divorce


Chorus:

 G          D/F#
I haven't seen you in ages

  C            Em
But it's not as bleak as it seems

D/F#   G         D/F#
We still dance on whirling stages

   C   G/B   D/A
In my Busby Berkeley dreams

G               D/F#
The tears have stained all the pages

  C          Em
Of my True Romance magazines

D/F#   G       D/F#
We still dance in my outrageously beautiful

C   G/B   D/A
Busby Berkeley dreams
Verse:

G      D/F#     C
And now you want to leave me for good

C  G/B    D/A
I refuse to believe you could

G   D/F#     C
You forget we're not made of wood

   Am       G/B
Well darling you may do your worst

 C          D/A
Because you'll have to kill me first


Chorus:

 G          D/F#
I haven't seen you in ages

  C            Em
But it's not as bleak as it seems

D/F#   G         D/F#
We still dance on whirling stages

   C   G/B   D/A
In my Busby Berkeley dreams

G               D/F#
The tears have stained all the pages

  C          Em
Of my True Romance magazines

D/F#   G       D/F#
We still dance in my outrageously beautiful

C   G/B   D/A

I haven't seen you in ages

We still dance on whirling stages

   C   G/B   D/A
In my Busby Berkeley dreams

The tears have stained all the pages

We still dance in my outrageously beautiful
