of Montreal - Du Og Meg

from Ultimate Guitar [http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/tabs/o/of_montreal/du_og_meg_acoustic_crd.htm]

G

G C
She fell in love with a boy
G
Who spoke a second language
C G
And who lived across the ocean
D
In the evil empire

G C
He awoke her sleeping heart
G
And swept away the darkness
C G
An acute fear of flying
D
Couldn't keep her away


G C G C G D


G C
She landed on her feet
G
And joined his fledgling rock group
C G
As they toured the evil empire
D
Selling t-shirts at the shows

G C
She taught him what was real
G
She taught him he was okay
C G
That his thoughts were not just rubbish
D
That he had something good to give

Am
Still his heart was so ambivalent and hopesick
G Bm
Of her he wasn't ever sure
Am
But she gave in so sweetly that the spirit said
Em D
"Boy, you better go run to her (run to her)"

G C
So when she split, he hopped on a plane
G
With his parents and his brother
C G
He told her that he loved her
D
They were married in the summer

Gnarls Barkley - Crazy

Originally at ilovefizzypop.co.uk [http://www.ilovefizzypop.co.uk/ukulele-songs/]

(Am)I remember when, I remember,
I remember when I lost my (C)mind
There was something so pleasant about that (F)place.
Even your emotions had an echo
In so much (E7)space

(Am)And when you're out there, Without care,
Yeah, I was out of (C)touch
But it wasn't because I didn't know (F)enough
I just knew too (E7)much

Does that make me (Am)crazy
Does that make me (C)crazy
Does that make me (F)crazy
(E7)Probably

(Am)And I hope that you are having the time of your (C)life
But think (F)twice,
that's my only (E7)advice

(Am)Come on now, who do you, who do you, who do you,
who do you think you (C)are,
Ha ha ha bless your (F)soul
You really think you're in (E7)control

Well, I think you're (Am)crazy
I think you're (C)crazy
I think you're (F)crazy
Just like (E7)me

(Am)My heroes had the heart to Lose their lives out on a (C)limb
And all I remember is (F)thinking,
I want to be like (E7)them

(Am)Ever since I was little, ever since I was little it looked like (C)fun
And it's no coincidence I've (F)come
And I can die when I'm (E7)done

Maybe I'm (Am)crazy
Maybe you're (C)crazy
Maybe we're (F)crazy
(E7)Possibly
