  You were perverted too
G              Bm  Em            Bm

Alternate verse from LOVE version

I [Gm] look from the [Gm7] wings, at the [C7] play you are [Eb] staging
[Gm] While my old [F] uke gently [C] weeps [D]
As [Gm] I’m sitting [Gm7] here, doing [C7] nothing but [Eb] aging
[Gm] Still my old [F] uke gently [Bb] weeps. [D7]

I [Gm] look at you [Gm7] all see the [C7] love there that’s [Eb] sleeping,
[Gm] While my old [F] uke gently [C] weeps [D]

[Gm] Still my old [F] uke gently [Bb] weeps. [D7]

[Gm] Still my old [F] uke gently [Bb] weeps [D7] [Gm]
