4 ukulele chords used in "Lover Of The Light" by Mumford & Sons: A, Bm, D and G
i LOVE this website ! its like the only one out there , + i love this song.
I noticed a couple small errors in the lyrics, and I’m being really picky, but: goal in the chorus should be gold, the last line of the repeated verse should be “I’d” and “you’d” instead of “I’ll” and “you’ll” (I think), the first line of the third verse is “I had done wrong, you built your tower”, and in the fifth verse, I believe they say “flawed by” instead of “flawed my”. Thank you very, very much. This site is always great – it’s the best out there for chords. Sorry for being so picky!!!
If you change the second Bm in the third line of the first and last verses to a D, it sounds better I think (the repeated verse that opens the song and is different from the others) 🙂
I’m so happy this song is on here!!! I absolutely adore it 😀 I haven’t tried it yet, but just looking at the chords so far, 0, +5, -2 and -5 are the easiest (+5 and -2 being easier than the other two).
