Swinging on a Star

UKULELE INTRO: E7 / A7 / Am7 D7 / G / E7 / A7 / Am7 D7 / G

E7 A7

Would you like to swing on a star

Am7 D7 G

Carry moonbeams home in a jar E7 A7

And be better off than you are Am7 D7 G

Or would you rather be a mule?

G C G C A mule is an animal with long funny ears G C G

He kicks up at anything he hears

A7 D His back is brawny and his brain is weak

Em7 A7 D D7

He's just plain stupid with a stubborn streak

G C G E7

And by the way, if you hate to go to school

Am7 D7 G

You may grow up to be a mule

E7 A7

Or would you like to swing on a star

Am7 D7 G

Carry moonbeams home in a jar

E7 A7

And be better off than you are

Am7 D7 G

Or would you rather be a pig?

G C G C

A pig is an animal with dirt on his face

G C G

His shoes are a terrible disgrace

A7 D

He’s got no manners when he eats his food

Em7 A7 D D7

He's fat and lazy and extremely rude

G C G E7

But if you don't care a feather or a fig

Am7 D7 G

You may grow up to be a pig

E7 A7

Or would you like to swing on a star

Am7 D7 G

Carry moonbeams home in a jar

E7 A7

And be better off than you are

Am7 D7 G

Or would you rather be a fish?

KAZOOS (verse chords)

UKULELE SOLO (chorus chords)

G C G C

A fish won't do anything, but swim in a brook

G C G

He can't write his name or read a book

A7 D

To fool the people is his only thought

Em7 A7 D D7

And though he's slippery, he still gets caught

G C G E7

But then if that sort of life is what you wish

Am7 D7 G

You may grow up to be a fish

E7 A7

And all the monkeys aren't in the zoo

Am7 D7 G

Every day you meet quite a few

E7 A7

So you see it's all up to you

Am7 D7 G

You can be better than you are

Am7 D7 G

You could be swinging on a star

Am7 D7 G

You could be swinging on a star

HEY, LOOK ME OVER-Carolyn Leigh/Cy Coleman 4/4 1...2...1234

Intro: | | | | |

Hey, look me over, lend me an ear, fresh out of clover, mortgaged up to here

But don't pass the plate, folks, don't pass the cup

I figure whenever you're down and out, the only way is up, and I'll be

Up like a rosebud, high on the vine. Don't thumb your nose, bud, take a tip from mine

I'm a little bit short of the elbow room, but let me get me some, and look out, world, here I come

Nobody in the world was ever without a prayer

How can you win the world, if nobody knows you're there

p.2. Hey, Look Me Over

Kid, when you need the crowd, the tickets are hard to sell

Still you can lead the crowd, if you can get up and yell...

Hey, look me over, lend me an ear, fresh out of clover, mortgaged up to here

But don't pass the plate, folks, don't pass the cup

I figure whenever you're down and out, the only way is up, and I'll be

Up like a rosebud, high on the vine. Don't thumb your nose, bud, take a tip from mine

I'm a little bit short of the elbow room, but let me get me some, and look out, world, here I come

Yes, look out, world, here I come, hear me shout....world, here....I....come!

High HopesIntro:

Next time you’re found with your chin on the ground,

There’s a lot to be learned, so look around.

Just what makes that little old ant

Think he’ll move that rubber tree plant?

Anyone knows and ant can’t

Move a rubber tree plant.

But he’s got high hopes, he’s got high hopes.

He’s got high apple pie in the sky hopes.

So an y time you’re gettin’ low,

’stead of lettin’ go,

Just remember that ant.

Oops! There goes another rubber tree plant!

When troubles call, and your back’s to the wall

There’s a lot to be learned, that wall could fall.

Once there was a silly old ram

Thought he’d punch a hole in a dam

No one could make that ram scram -

He kept buttin’ that dam.

‘Cause he had high hopes, he had high hopes.

He had high apple pie in the sky hopes.

So an y time you’re feelin’ bad,

’stead of feelin’ sad,

Just remember that ram.

Oops! There goes a billion kilowatt dam!

All problems just a toy balloon,

They’ll be bursted soon,

They’re just bound to go pop!

Oops! There goes another problem ker -

Oops! There goes another problem ker -

Oops! There goes another problem kerplop, kerplop!

Standing on the CornerThe Four Lads (1956)

Intro:

Verse 1

Standing on the corner, watching all the girls go by;


Brother, you don’t know a nicer occupation.

Matter of fact, neither do I;

Than standing on the corner, watching al the girls,

Watching all the girls, watching all the girls go by.

I’m the cat, that got the cream. Haven’t got a girl, but I can dream;

Haven’t got a girl, but I can wish, so, I take me down to Main Street,

And that’s where I select my imaginary dish.

Verse 2


G]Standing on the corner, giving all the girls the eye;

Brother, if you’ve got a rich imagination,

G Gm Eb C G Bb Eb Ab

G Bm7 G G7 Am7 D7 Am7 D7

G G7 C D7 G Bb D7

G7 CM7 Am D7 Am7 D7

G B7 C

F Fm Bm7 D7 Am7



Give it a whirl, give it a try;

Try standing on the corner, watching al the girls,

Watching all the girls, watching all the girls go by.

Saturday, and I’m so broke. Haven’t got a girl, and that’s no joke;

Still, I’m living like a millionaire, when I take me down to Main Street,

And I review the harem, parading for me there.

Verse 3


Standing on the corner, underneath the springtime sky;

Brother, you can’t go to jail for what you’rethinking.

Or for the wolf (wolf whistle) look in your eye;

You’re only standing on the corner, watching al the girls,

Watching all the girls, watching all the girls

(Wolf whistle) go by.

If I Only Had a Brain - in C by Harold Arlen & E.Y. Harburg (1937)

Sing e . | C . . . | Dm . . . I could while a-way the hours con-ferrin' with the flowers,

| C . . . | . . . con-sultin' with the rain------

. | Dm . . . | G7 . . And my head I'd be scratchin' while my thoughts were busy hatchin'

. | C . . . | . . . If I only had a brain------ . | C . . . | Dm . . . | C . . . I'd un-ravel any riddle for any indi-vid'le in trouble or in pain------

. | Dm . . . | G7 . . With the thoughts I'd be thinkin' I could be an-other Lincoln

. | C . . . | . . . If I only had a brain------

Bridge:

. | F . . . | C . . . Oh, I------------ would tell you why---------

| Dm . G7 . | C . . the o----- cean's near the shore---------

. | Dm . E7 . | Am . . I could think of things I never thunk be-fore------------

. | D\ --- --- --- | G7 . . And then I'd sit and think some more--------

. | C . . . | Dm . . . I would not be just a nuffin', my head all full of stuffin',

| C . . . | . . . my heart all full of pain------

. | Dm . . . | G7 . . I would dance and be merry, life would be a ding-a-derry

. | C . . . | . . . If I only had a brain------

Instrumental: . | C . . . | Dm . . . | C . . . | . . . . | Dm . . . | G7 . . . | C . . . | . . .

. | D\ --- --- --- | G7 . . And then I'd sit and think some more-------- . | C . . . | Dm . . . Gosh it would be awful pleasin’ to reason out the reason

| C . . . | . . .

of things I can’t ex-plain----

. | Dm . . . | G7 . . Then per-haps I’ll de-serve ya and be even worthy erv ya
