F
We once had a happy home
F
With dogs and cats and means
C7
What if odd Hawaiian winds
C7                   F
Would find us here in Queens?

[Verse]
Dm
She seemed a little distant
F
She sighed and looked away
Dm
I had to think of something new
C7
To make her feel okay
Bb              C
Maybe something musical
F                 Cm7
For her next birthday
Cm7
Small and cheap and lots of fun
C7
And not to hard to play

[Verse]
Dm
I walked the snowy streets of Queens
F
I almost gave up tryin'
Dm
'Til I found this crazy shop
C7
With all things Hawaiian
Bb                       C
Palm trees, surf boards, tanning lotion
F                   Cm7
Guitars the size of shoes
Cm7
I did not know these little boxes
C7
Would soon give me the blues

[Chorus]
F
Now she's cray-cray
F
About a uku-le-le
F               C7
A goofey little four string
C7
All she does is strum that thing
F           C#7
That little lass is wack
C7          F
Is she ever coming back?
F               G7
Or is she gonna play, play
G7       C7
On a uku-le-le?

[Verse]
Dm
I said, "Let's catch a movie
F
Or maybe see a show
Dm
Take a drive around the town
C7
And make angels in the snow"
Bb              C
But she kept on practicin'
F                  Cm7
Learning those old songs
Cm7
The fingers flyin' on the frets
C7
And singin' at the top of her lungs

[Chorus]
F
Now she's cray-cray
F
About a uku-le-le
F               C7
A goofey little four string
C7
All she does is strum that thing
F           C#7
That little lass is wack
C7          F
Is she ever coming back?
F               G7
Or is she gonna play, play
G7       C7
On a uku-le-le?

[Solo whistle "Ukulele Lady]
F   C7   F

[Verse]
Dm
I set that evil instrument
F
Down the stairs and ran
Dm
Just to save my marriage vows
C7
I had to have a plan
Bb           C
I don't have perfect pitch
F               Cm7
That, I can't deliver
Cm7
About that day I pitched that thing
C7
Into the East River

[Chorus]
F
Now she's cray-cray
F
About a uku-le-le
F               C7
A goofey little four string
C7
All she does is strum that thing
F           C#7
That little lass is wack
C7          F
Is she ever coming back?
F               G7
Or is she gonna play, play
G7       C7
On a uku-le-----
