Animal Tracks by Mountain Man
Mountain Man are a trio of girls who sing haunting harmonies and two chord songs. Here's the one that has brought them to Australia's attention. I know we're in love with Americana at the moment, but don't forget AUSTRALIANA - our story is harder and grittier but worth preserving and telling!!

And the sweat will roll down our backs

And we'll follow animal tracks
Am
To a tree in the woods

And a hole in the leaves we'll see

The bright baby eyes of a chickadee

It's a Heartache
I'll let you in on a secret, I never liked this song, in fact I really hated it............. until I heard the Wellington Ukulele Orchestra's version.
It's A Heartache Bonnie Tyler [F] (From Richard G's Songbook)

From: Richard G’s Ukulele Songbook www.scorpex.net/uke.htm
It's a [F] heartache nothing but a [Am] heartache
Hits you when it's [Bb] too late hits you when you're [F] down [C]
It's a [F] fool's game nothing but a [Am] fool's game
Standing in the [Bb] cold rain feeling like a [F] clown [C]
It's a [F] heartache nothing but a [Am] heartache
Love him till your [Bb] arms break then he lets you [F] down [C]
It ain't [Bb] right with love to [C] share
When you [Am] find he doesn't [Dm] care for [C] you
It ain't [Bb] wise to need some[C]one
As much as [Am] I depended [Dm] on [C] you
It's a [F] heartache nothing but a [Am] heartache
Hits you when it's [Bb] too late hits you when you're [F] down [C]
It's a [F] fool's game nothing but a [Am] fool's game
Standing in the [Bb] cold rain feeling like a [F] clown [C]
It's a [F] heartache nothing but a [Am] heartache
Love him till your [Bb] arms break then he lets you [F] down [C]
It ain't [Bb] right with love to [C] share
When you [Am] find he doesn't [Dm] care for [C] you
It ain't [Bb] wise to need some[C]one
As much as [Am] I depended [Dm] on [C] you
Oh it's a [F] heartache nothing but a [Am] heartache
Love him till your [Bb] arms break then he lets you [F] down [C]
It’s a [F] fool’s game nothing but a [Am] fool's game
Standing in the [Bb] cold rain feeling like a [F] clown [C]
It's a [F] heartache
Bizarre Love Triangle
This is a bloody Ace song and sounds excellent as a disco version on ukulele and guitar, but does anyone know what the lyric means?
Bizarre Love Triangle
New
Order
(Fmaj7)Every time
I (G)think of you
I get a (Em)shot
right through into a (F)bolt of blue
(F)It's no
problem of mine but it's a (G)problem I find
(Em)Living a life
that I (F)can't leave behind
(F)There's no
sense in (G)telling me
The (Em)wisdom of
a fool won't (F)set you free
But that's the
(F)way that it goes and it's what (G)nobody knows
And (Em)every day
my con(F)fusion grows
CHORUS
(Fmaj7)Every time
I (G)see you falling
I (Em)get down on
my (F)knees and pray
I'm (F)waiting
for that (G)final moment
You (Em)say the
words that (F)I can't say
(Fmaj7)I feel
fine and (G)I feel good
I(Em)feel like I
(F)never should
Whenever I get
this way I just don't (G)know what to say
(Em)Why can't we
be ourselves like we were(F)yesterday
(F)I'm not sure
what (G)this could mean
I (Em)don't think
you're (F)what you seem
I do admit to
myself that if I (G)hurt someone else
(Em)Then I'd
never see just what we're (F)meant to be
Chorus (x2)
