D G D G I remember when Daddy said "What do you wanna be?" I said "I wanna be a mermaid and to l ive under the sea" Well, I knew it wouldn't work out as I looked down at my feet Then my granddad played me my very first record And that's when it changed for me Chorus: D It made me smile, made me sing G D Made my worries fly away Lifted me up, set me free I could be Billie Holiday And they say life's hard to figure out when in reality You gotta sit back, just relax And let it happen naturally I went to sit by the keys to work on my first song I had the melodies in my head But they were coming out all wrong Then I worked out some harmonies That went oh, oh, oh, oh, oh And then that sweet sound spoke to me And told me where I belong Chorus A Ooh, fly away Ooh, so naturally Ooh, take the stress away 'Cause I know, yeah I know It'll make you feel alright Yeah Chorus Gotta sit back, just relax and let it happen naturally Gotta sit back, just relax and let it happen naturally Gotta sit back, just relax and let it happen naturally Gotta sit back, just relax and let it happen naturally (Sit back, relax, happen naturally) (Sit back, relax, happen naturally) (Sit back, relax, happen naturally) (Sit back, relax, happen naturally) | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Ukulele Chord DiagramsA D G Here you can see detailed diagrams for each ukulele chord used in the song.
