Start Jamming...
This is a, [G] you know, it's been such a [Ebm] dream come true.
I mean, for me, I never thought I'd be doing this, you know.
It's thanks to [Gb] a [E] Fortnite video clip on YouTube, [Bbm] you know.
So [B] this has been just [Bb] so incredible.
I mean, I pinch myself every morning.
[Gb] But I love, I love it.
I love playing the ukulele and I love [D] traveling.
You know, this [Ebm] instrument is truly, I always believe that it's the instrument of peace.
[Gb] I used to tell people [F] that if everyone played the ukulele, the world [Bb] would be a better place.
[A] I truly believe [Eb] that.
[Gb] And it's not bad, you know, it's great to be an ukulele player, especially a touring ukulele [Eb] player, you know,
because audiences all over the world [Abm] have such low [E] expectations of me.
[F]
[E] So I absolutely love it.
[Gb] [Am] But, [G] well, I think I'll close with this song.
This [Ebm] is, when we pulled into [F] our hotel last [Bb] night, you know, there was a big plaque [E] in front of the hotel that said Leonard Cohen.
And I [Gb] thought, [E] wow, that must be a [Gb] sign.
And well, it wasn't kind, but it must [N] be a sign.
[A] So here is, [Gbm] when I [Ebm] first heard this song, I mean, it [E] knocked me out of the water.
I [Bb] mean, I was so moved to tears.
[F] Then I heard, you know, I heard Leonard Cohen's [B] version.
Then I heard Chuck [C] Buckley's version, which is like, wow, it's a whole, [Bbm] whole song.
And [G] then I heard it recently in the [N] movie Shrek.
[Gb] But it doesn't matter.
It doesn't matter, you know, who's [B] playing the song.
It's just a [E] gorgeous, gorgeous melody.
So [D] [E] it's an honor to put my Leonard Cohen jersey on right now and play this song [Gbm] for you.
Here's my [N] interpretation.
