Sleeping By Myself - Eddie Vedder ukulele chords

You may have read my review of the new Eddie Vedder album called Ukulele Songs HERE (a great CD, well worth buying and listening to if you are learning how to play the ukulele). He is a big fan of this musical instrument.  I really do like the short, simple and sweet second song called Sleeping By Myself - it's also fairly simple to play on the uke.  Give it a go!


(That D#5 chord is 0330 and the DSus4 is 0230)


LYRICS PROVIDED PURELY FOR EDUCATIONAL PURPOSES FOR THOSE LEARNING THE UKULELE (APOLOGIES FOR BLOCKING OUT THE LYRICS - LAWYERS ARE CLAMPING DOWN ON MUSIC TABS AND CLOSING SITES. I DO NOT WANT GOT A UKULELE CLOSED DOWN, SO SADLY THESE PEOPLE WIN. YOU WOULD HAVE THOUGHT PEOPLE PLAYING SONGS WOULD BE GOOD FOR RECORD SALES, BUT SADLY, LAWYERS DONT THINK THAT WAY.....)

  2. Had several comments back that I haven't published saying similar things, to adjust the chords. I think the above work ok, but you may want to try changing the sleeping by myself line to...

    A#  (Bb)              C            F
    I'll be sleeping by myself tonight


    And the bridge section to
    F7
    Forever be sad and lonely
    c#                 A
    Forever never be the same
    A#
    I close my eyes
    B
    Wait for the sign
    A
    Am I just waiting in vain?


    Thanks for the input!
