1000 Umbrellas Ukulele by XTC

Chords with lyrics

Should be the same on guitar, I think. Also I'm bad at telling E vs Em sometimes, so sorry if those mistakes
have occurred. Enjoy!

Db
One thousand umbrellas
 C
Upturned couldn't catch all the
B
Rain that drained out of my
Bb
Head when you said we were
A
Over and over I
Ab            G
Cried, til I floated downstream
To a town they call

A   D   A   D
Misery oh oh misery
A   D   A   D
Misery oh oh misery

  Db
And one million teacups
 C
I bet couldn't hold all the
B
Wet that fell out of my
Bb
Eyes when you fell out with
A
Me, now I'm crawling the
Ab
Wallpaper that's looking more like a roadmap to

A   D   A   D
Misery oh oh misery

A
How can you smile and forecast
Am
Weather's getting better
And you'll soon forget her
         Em
If you let the sunshine come through
A
How can you smile and forecast
Am
Weather's getting better
               Em    B E G F#
If you never let a girl rain all over you
  B          E    G     F#      B E G F#
And just when I thought that my vista was golden in hue
B      E     G     F#
One thousand umbrellas opened to spoil the view

Db
One million salt seas
  C
Recalled from school atlas
 B
Alas would be filled to the
Bb
Brim, Sunny Jim couldn't
A           Ab
Jump it, how can I be pleased
          G
When I'm handed the keys
          A   D
To a town they call Misery
   A    D
Oh oh Misery

Db
So with a mop and a
C            B
Bucket I'll just say forget her
       Bb
And carry on sweeping up
        A
Where I've been weeping
         Ab
The Jesters will creep in
        G
To strike down the newly crowned Monarch
  A   D   A   D
Of misery oh oh misery
A
How can you smile and forecast
Am
Weather's getting better
And you'll soon forget her
         Em
If you let the sunshine come through
A
How can you smile and forecast
Am
Weather's getting better
               Em    B E G F#
If you never let a girl rain all over you
  B          E    G     F#      B E G F#
And just when I thought that my vista was golden in hue
B      E     G     F#
One thousand umbrellas opened to spoil the view

B          E    G        F#    B E G F#
Just when I thought that my skies were a June July blue
B      E       G  F#
One thousand umbrellas opened
B      E       G  F#
Two thousand umbrellas opened
B      E       G   F#       B E G F#
