Tuning: Standard

Prefab Sprout
Desire As (1985)
(Paddy McAloon)


The tuning of the original recording is somewhere in between things. 

Hello ukulele players! I originally submitted this as a guitar tab 
I now edited it a little and hope it works for ukulele, too. 
But I'm not sure whether the chords I suggest make sense for the ukulele. 
If you have any suggestions to make as to how to improve this tab, 
don't hesitate to send a message. Enjoy!

I've got six things on my mind you're no longer one of them
I've got six things on my mind you're no longer one of them
I've got six things on my mind you're no longer one of them
I've got six things on my mind you're no longer one of them

              B/C#            G#m7/9           
They were the best times, the harvest years 
                     F#          Emaj7
With jam to lace the bread
   B/C#      G#m7/9           
So goodness, goodness knows why I'd 
                F#          Emaj7
Throw it to the birds
F#        Emaj7/F#
 But there it is, 
F#     Emaj7/F#
 And there we are
    F#                       B/D#                   G#m7 Gdim
And all I ever want to be is far from the eyes that ask  me

B/F#             G#m7         C#m7/9         A     F#dim
 In whose bed you gonna be and is it true you only see

Desire as a self-figured creature who changes her mind ?

Desire as a self-figured creature who changes her mind ?

             B/C#        G#m7/9
It's perfect as it stands 
            F#               [Emaj7/G#]
So why then crush it in your perfect hands ?

So tell me you must have thought

It all out in advance
   B/C#     G#m7/9           
Or goodness, goodness knows why you'd

Throw it to the birds
             B/C#             G#m7/9           
You mock the good things, you play the heart strings, 
                 F#
Play them one by one

F#        Emaj7/F#
 But there it is,
