I pulled in to Nazareth, I was feeling about half past dead. 
A                 C#m        D             A 
I just need some place where I can lay my head.

I picked up my bag.  I went looking for a place to hide. 
When I saw Carmen and the devil walking side by side. 
I said, "Hey, Carmen, come on. Let's go downtown." 
She said, "I got to go, but my friend can stick around." 
 
(refrain) 
 
Go down, Miss Moses, there's nothing you can say. 
It's just old Luke, and Luke's waiting on the judgement day. 
"Well, Luke, my friend, what about young Anna Lee?" 
He said, "Do me a favor, son, won't you stay and keep Anna Lee company." 
 
(refrain) 
 
Crazy Chester followed me and he caught me in the fog. 
He said, "I will fix your rack, if you'll take Jack my dog." 
I said, "Wait a minute, Chester. You know I'm a peaceful man." 
He said, "That's okay, boy.  Won't you feed him when you can?" 
 
(refrain) 
 
Get your Canonball now, to take me down the line. 
My bag is sinking low, and I do believe it's time 
To get back to Miss Fanny.  You know she's the only one 
Who sent me here with her regards for everyone.

Rolling Stones: Get Off My Cloud [Ukulele Chords]

2006-09-05T09:40:00.000-07:00

  B          A
I live on an aparmtent 
       B          A           E       A  B  A
On the ninty nith floor of my block
And I sit at home lookin' out of the window and 
imaginin' the world has a topped

Then in flies a guy 
all dressed up like a Union Jack
And says I've won five pounds 
if I have this kind of dentergent pack

E   G#m     A         B
Hey you get off of my cloud
D                         B
Don't hang around, 'cause two's a crowd on my cloud baby !

The telephone is rinin' 
I say "Hi it's me, who is there on the line ?"
A voice says "Hi hello
how are you ? Well I guess I am doin' fine"

He says "It's three a.m. there's too much noise 
Don't you people want to go to bed"
Just cause you feel so good, do you have to
Drive me  out of my head

CHORUS

I was sick and tired , fed up wth this 
and decide to take a drive down town 
It was so very quiet and peaceful, 
there was nobody, not a soul around.

I laid myself down, I was so tired 
and I started to dream
In the morning the perking tickets were just like 
flags on my windscreen

Everywhere I look there's a deadend waiting 
E             A               D        A 
Temperatures dropping at the rotten oasis  
E         A               D        A 
Stealing kisses from the leperous faces 
E            A              D          A 
Heads are hanging from the garbage man trees 
E            A      D    A 
Mouthwash, jukebox, Gasoline 
E             A             D        A 
Cyrstals are pointing at a poor mans pockets 
E            A               D    A 
Smiling eyes ripping out of it's sockets

Love machines on the sympathy crutches

Discount orgies on the dropout buses 
E          A              D        A 
Hitching a ride with the bleeding noses 
E          A            D          A 
Coming to town with the breif case blues

Em Am7
London calling to the faraway towns
Em G
Now that war is declared and battle come down
Em Am7
London calling to the underworld
Em G
Come out of the cupboard, all you boys and girls

Em Am7
London calling, now don't look to us
Em G
Phony Beatlemania has bitten the dust
Em Am7
London calling, see we ain't got no swing
Em G
Except for the ring of that truncheon thing

Em G
The ice age is coming, the sun's zooming in
Em G
Meltdown expected the wheat is growing thin
Em G
Engines stop running but I have no fear
Em Em7 D
Cuz London is drowning and I live by the river

London calling to the imitation zone
Forget it brother, you can got it alone
London calling to the zombies of death
Quit holding out and draw another breath

London calling and I don't wanna shout
But while we were talking I saw you noddin' out
London calling, see we ain't got no highs
Except for that one with the yellowy eyes

The ice age is coming, the sun's zooming in
Engines stop running the wheat is growing thin
A nuclear error but I have no fear
Cuz London is drowning and I live by the river

Em Am7 Em
Em Am7 Em

Em Am7 Em
Em Am7 Em

The ice age is coming, the sun's zooming in
Engines stop running the wheat is growing thin
A nuclear error but I have no fear
Cuz London is drowning and I live by the river

Em Am7 Em Am7
Em Am7 Em Am7

Now get this
London calling, yes I was there too
An' you know what they said - well some of it was true!
London calling at the top of the dial
An' after all this, won't you give me a smile?
London calling,

Em
I never felt so much a' like...
