Preface to the first edition

This is a work-in-progress to collect and edit song sheets for the beginning ukulele player. Titles in bold italics refer to song sheets with chords placed above the lyrics. Titles in green are Christmas.

Please check the version on the cover page as this songbook will be updated with corrections and improvements. Intended for online use, this PDF has hyperlinking functionalities, from the entries in the table of contents to individual song sheets within. By clicking on the bottom right corner of each page, you return to the table of contents cover page.

Outstanding: 1. Rank song sheets by levels of difficulty or group them in three categories. 2. Correct any mistakes in lyrics, chord names, and chord placement. 3. Add counts (for time signature) and introduction to lead into the song. 4. Suggest optimal endings so a group can end together.

Let [C] me tell you of a story 'bout a [F] man named Charlie On [C] a tragic and fateful [G7] day. He [C] put ten cents in his pocket, kissed his [F] wife and family, Went to [C] ride on the [G7] M - T- [C] A.

[C] But will he ever return? No he'll [F] never return, And his [C] fate is still un- [G7] learned. He may [C] ride forever 'neath the [F] streets of Boston, He's the [C] man who [G] never re [C] turned.

[C] Charlie handed in his dime at the [F] Scully Square Station, And he [C] changed for Jamaica [G7] Plain. When he [C] got there the conductor told him, [F] "One more nickel!" Charlie [C] couldn't get [G7] off of that [C] train. CHORUS

[C] Now all night long Charlie [F] rides through the stations, Crying, [C] "What will become of [G7] me? How [C] can I afford to see my [F] sister in Chelsea, Or my [C] brother in [G7] Rox- [C] bury?" CHORUS

[C] Charlie's wife goes down to the [F] Scully Square Station, Every [C] day at a quarter past [G] two. And [C] through the open window she hands [F] Charlie his sandwich As the [C] train goes [G] rumbling [C] through. CHORUS

[C] Now you citizens of Boston, don't you [F] think it's a scandal, How the [C] people have to pay and [G] pay? Fight the [C] fare increase, vote for [F] George O'Brien, Get poor [C] Charlie off the [G7] M T [C] A! CHORUS x 2

[C] I took her to a supermarket I don't know why, but I had to start it some[G] where, so it started there. [C] I said, "pretend you've got no money." She just laughed and said "oh, you're so funny I said [G] "Yeah, well I can't see anyone else smiling in here." Are you sure?

This land is your land, this land is my land, from Cali-fornia to the New York island,

From the redwood forest to the Gulf Stream wa……ters, this land was made for you and me.

As I was walking that ribbon of highway, I saw above me that endless skyway,

I saw be-low me that golden val….. ley, this land was made for you and me.

This land is your land, this land is my land, from Cali-fornia to the New York island,

From the redwood forest to the Gulf Stream wa……ters, this land was made for you and me.

I've roamed and rambled and I followed my footsteps, to the sparkling sand of her diamond deserts,

And all a-round me a voice was sound….ing, this land was made for you and me.

This land is your land, this land is my land, from Cali-fornia to the New York island,

From the redwood forest to the Gulf Stream wa…ters, this land was made for you and me.
