I used to play this ukulele when I was just half your age 
                                          D 
I used to hold it n' make it shine in the good old days 
                        F#m            G               B7    Em 
When I would strum it I would hum it always made me a happy dude 
     D                 A                         D 
It's impossible to be sad when you're playin' a uke

I used to play this ukulele 'til the sun went down 
                                              D 
Used to play it for my friends or with no one else around
