C G F People just ain't no good C G F A thing that's well understood C G F You can see it everywhere you look G G7 People just ain't no good We were married under cherry trees Under blossom we made our vows All the blossoms come sailing down Through the streets and through the playgrounds The sun would stream on the sheets Awoken by the morning bird We’d buy the Sunday newspapers Never read a single word Chorus: C G F People, they ain't no good C G F People, they ain't no good C G F G People, they ain't no good at all Seasons came, seasons went The winter stripped the blossoms bare A different tree now lines the streets Shaking its fists in the air The winter slammed us like a fist The windows rattling in the gales To which she drew the curtains Made out of her wedding veils Chorus C F To our love, send a dozen white lilies C F To our love, send a coffin of wood C F To our love, let all the pink-eyed pigeons coo Dm G That people, they just ain't no good To our love, send back all the letters To our love, a valentine of blood To our love, let all the jilted lovers cry That people, they just ain’t no good It ain’t that in their hearts they’re bad They can comfort you, some even try They nurse you when you’re ill of health They bury you when you go and die It ain’t that in their hearts they’re bad They’d stick by you if they could But that’s just bullshit baby People just ain’t no good Chorus | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Ukulele Chord DiagramsC  Dm  F  G  G7  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each ukulele chord used in the song.
