The Rose-Bette Midlet and Wynonna Judd chords
Jam Along & Learn...
And now I want to introduce you to a personal friend of mine.
I met her last spring and I had the opportunity to work with her.
I flew out to Hollyweird and together we sang.
And since then I have been really [Fm] blessed to know her as a friend.
[N] But you all know her as the wacky, the wonderful, Bette Midler.
I'm the greatest fan.
[Db]
Some say love, it [Ab] is river
That [Gb] drowns the [Ab]
[Db] tender reed
Some say love, it [Ab] is razor
[Gb] That leaves [Ab] your [Db] soul to bleed
[Fm] Some say love, it [Bbm] is hunger
[Bb] [Ab] [Gb]
An endless aching need
[Ab] I [Db] say love, it is a flower
[Gb] And you, [Ab] it's [Db] only seed
[Ab] [Db] It's the heart, afraid of breaking
[Gb] That never [Ab] [Db] learns to dance
It's the dream, afraid [Ab] of waking
[Gb] That never [Ab] [Db] takes the chance
It's [Fm] the one who won't [Bbm] be [Bb] taken
[Bbm] [Gb] Who cannot seem [Ab] to give
And [Db] the soul, afraid [Ab] of dying
[Gb] That never [Ab] [Db] learns to live
When the night is
[Ab] long
[Gb]
[Ab] [Db]
That [Ab] love is all I need
[Gb] All I need is a [Ab] hand [Db]
of straw
Just [Fm]
remember in [Bbm] the winter
Far [Gb]
beneath, so far beneath the [Ab] snow
[Ebm]
[Db] Lies the seed
That [Ab] with the sun's love
In [Gb] the spring
[Ab]
Becomes [Db] a rose
[B]
[N]
[Eb]
[D]
[Bm] [A]
[N]
I [Ab] will not leave you
I won't come on
I'll teach you to do the hula
Don't you think that would be great
When the people arrive
If [Gb] you like the ukulele lady
[Eb] Ukulele lady [Abm] like you
[Db] If [Abm] you like to linger [Db] where it's [Abm] shady
[Db] Ukulele lady, [Gb] jump in
If you [Ebm] kiss the [Ab] ukulele lady
And you promise ever to be true
If you like the ukulele lady
Come on, [Bbm] let's do the hula now, why?
Here we go.
[Gb] I
[Db]
[Gb]
[A] [Eb] [Db]
[B] think I'm gonna sing my [Eb] solo.
