Bsus4 Asus2 G6 F#7sus4 There was a king who ruled the land Bsus4 Asus2 G6 F#7sus4 His Maj-es-ty was in command Bsus4 Asus2 G6 F#7sus4 With silver eyes the scarlet eagle Bsus4 Asus2 G6 F#7sus4 showered silver on the people. Chorus: G D A G D E oh, mother, tell me more. F#m Why’d'ya have to leave me there Hanging in my infant air B Waiting? F#m You only have to read the lines E G They’re scribbly black and everything shines Across the stream with wooden shoes With bells to tell the king the news a thousand misty riders climb up Higher once upon a time G D A Wondering and dreaming. G D E The words have different meanings, A G E Yes, they did. For all the time spent in that room The doll’s house, darkness, old perfume And fairy stories held me high On clouds of sunlight floating by Chorus: G D A G D E oh, mother, tell me more. A G E Tell me more. | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Ukulele Chord DiagramsA D E F#m F#7 F#7sus4 G G6 B Bsus4 Here you can see detailed diagrams for each ukulele chord used in the song.
