What a cracking tune this is. We tried noodling this at our last ukulele jam session and think we should work on it a bit more
Make Me Smile by Steve Harley and Cockney Rebel
[G] You've done it [F] all you've [C] broken every [G] code
[F] And pulled the [C] rebel to the [G] floor
[G] You've spoilt the [F] game no [C] matter what you [G] say [F] For only [C] metal what a [G] bore
[F] Blue eyes [C] blue eyes [F] how can you [C] tell so many [G] lies?
[Dm] Come up and [F] see me make me [C] smile [G]
[Dm] Or do what you [F] want running [C] wild [G]
[NC] There's nothing [F] left all [C] gone and run a[G]way [F] Maybe you'll [C] tarry for a [G] while
[G] It's just a [F] test a [C] game for us to [G] play
[F] Win or [C] lose it's hard to [G] smile
[F] Resist [C] resist [F] it's from your[C]self you have to [G] hide
[Dm] Come up and [F] see me to make me [C] smile [G]
[Dm] Or do what you [F] want running [C] wild [G]
[NC] There ain't no [F] more you've [C] taken every[G]thing [F] From my be[C]lief in mother [G] earth
[G] Can you ig[F]nore my [C] faith in every[G]thing
[F] Cos I know what [C] faith is and what it's [G] worth
[F] Away [C] away [F] and don't say [C] maybe you'll [G] try
[Dm] Come up and [F] see me to make me [C] smile [G]
[Dm] Or do what you [F] want just running [C] wild [G]
[F]Oooooh[C]oohlalala[F]oooh[C]oohlalala[G]oohoohlalala
[Dm] Come up and [F] see me to make me [C] smile [G]
[Dm] Or do what you [F] want running [C] wild [G]
