Alternative, maybe easier, version:
  • Transpose the chords 2 half steps down [ -2 ]
  • Put a capo on fret 2 to stay in the same key

UKULELE CHORDS

Gb
We are young we have
years ahead maybe
we might fall in love
             Abm
or fall apart
          Gb
fall apart
         Abm
Before it ends well we
                 Gb
should try to start


         B    
   So I’ll go
            Db7            Gb
   But I’m telling you I don’t
          B    
   want to go
              B                   Db7
   I could be stuck here and happy


Gb
There’s a puzzle I
work on endlessly
and I’ve got all the sides and all the corners
               Abm
But there’s a space
               Gb
Oh there’s a space
            Abm
Lost some pieces I
           Gb 
can’t replace


           B    
   So I’ll be
              Db7           Gb
   But I’m telling you I don’t
          B    
   want to be
          B                Db7
   Just a wasted puzzle piece


Gb
We are old and our son
took the dog away
and fair enough guess we’re
               Abm
tired all the time
          Gb
all the time
             Abm
and you know dogs they need
                Gb
ample time outside


           B    
   So I’ll stay
           Db7              Gb
   But I’m telling you I don’t
           B    
   want to stay


        B             Db7 
So I’ll brace myself against the wall
      Gb                B    
and hope to God that I don’t fall
   B                  Db7
My bones are worn my hip won’t hold
          Gb
I used to be so young 
         B    
How did I get so old  
      B                    Db7
Won’t you take my cane and hold my hand
          Gb          B    
You’re holding on to all I have
     B                 Db7
just a basket full of memories
        Gb                 B    
and I am loosing more each day it seems 
       B              Db7
but if I can make it to the street 
              Gb
I’ll steal a car or a bike
              B    
whatever there is to steal
       B                Db7
and it might get cold I just don’t care
     Gb              B    
I’m going till I’m getting there
     B                    Db7
I’ll ride my steed all through this town

till I...
Gb
have looked
    B    
till I have found
     B           Db7
Your peaceful memory


B                   Db7
Won’t you return to me
B                   Db7
Won’t you return to me
