All the end of world talk made me think of this one:
D D7 G7
We are trav'ling in the footsteps
D A7
Of those who've gone before,
D D7 G7
And we'll all be reunited,
D A7 D
On a new and sunlit shore,
D
Oh, when the saints go marching in
D7 A7
Oh, when the saints go marching in
D D7 G G7
Lord, how I want to be in that number
D A7 D
When the saints go marching in
And when the sun refuse to shine
And when the sun refuse to shine
Lord, how I want to be in that number
When the sun refuse to shine
And when the moon turns red with blood
And when the moon turns red with blood
Lord, how I want to be in that number
When the moon turns red with blood
D D7 G7
Some say this world of trouble,
D A7
Is the only one we need,
D D7 G7
But I'm waiting for that morning,
D A7 D
When the new world is revealed.
D
Oh When the new world is revealed
D7 A7
Oh When the new world is revealed
D D7 G G7
Lord, how I want to be in that number
D A7 D
When the new world is revealed
(optional verse)
D
Oh, when the trumpet sounds its call
D7 A7
Oh, when the trumpet sounds its call
D D7 G G7
Lord, how I want to be in that number
D A7 D
When the trumpet sounds its call
D D7 G7
I used to have a playmate
D A7
Who would walk and talk with me
D D7 G7
But since she got religion
D A7 D
She has turned her back on me.
Oh, when the saints go marching in
Oh, when the saints go marching in
Lord, how I want to be in that number
When the saints go marching in

Wukulele festival
Well it was great, and lovely.
Reasons I love going to these things:
1. I get to talk about ukuleles and everyone is also interested in them, a big change from normal life.
2. People are always nice and interesting and willing to talk to another total stranger, mainly about ukuleles.
3. Great music from great musicians. On ukuleles. And you get to meet and talk to them mostly, and I like that. I briefly spoke to Sophie Madeleine. Squee!
4. You get to try out loads of different ukuleles, maybe buy them. And buy other ukulele themed stuff.
5. You can play in front of people and they politely listen, some might even be enjoying it a bit.
6. You get to wear silly hats and no-one thinks you look silly. Well, no-one says you do.
And I got to do all these things at Wukulele festival. Thank you organisers. Thank you artists who performed and did workshops. It was all a very special and enjoyable experience. If only life was always like a ukulele festival.
Going to a festival like this is like going to a party in your teens, what you put into having fun, you will get back, be the change you want to see in the world etc.
Oh, I bought a new hat and ukulele at the festival. I was happy there.
Anyway that's my review.

Old man look at my life
C G
Twenty four and there's so much more

Live alone in a paradise

Old man take a look at my life I'm a lot like you

I need someone to love me the whole day through
D Am7 Em7
Oh, one look in my eyes and you can tell that's true.
D F C G D F C F
Lullabies, look in your eyes,
Run around the same old town.
Doesn't mean that much to me
To mean that much to you
I've been first and last
Look at how the time goes past.
But I'm all alone at last.
Rolling home to you.
Old man look at my life, I'm a lot like you were x2 (intro chords)
