Enchanted - Taylor Swift (Ukulele chords)

                                                               "Enchanted"


C                                
There I was again tonight
G                                    
Forcing laughter, faking smiles
F                                  
Same old tired lonely place

C                      
Walls of insincerity,
G                                  
Shifting eyes and vacancy
F                                       C    
Vanished when I saw your face

                           F                        Am       G
All I can say is it was enchanting to meet you

C                                                  
Your eyes whispered, "Have we met?"
G                                      
Across the room your silhouette
     F                                      C
Starts to make its way to me
C                           
The playful conversation starts
G                                      
Counter all your quick remarks
F                             
Like passing notes in secrecy

            F                        Am      G
And it was enchanting to meet you
                             F                       Am         G
All I can say is I was enchanted to meet you

    F                       C          G                  F       
This night is sparkling, don't you let it go
                     C                G                  F
I'm wonderstruck, blushing all the way home
               C         G                     F
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
                                    Am   G    C
I was enchanted to meet you


C                               
The lingering question kept me up
G                                
2 AM, who do you love?
F                              C
I wonder 'til I'm wide awake
C                                 
And now I'm pacing back and forth
G                                   
Wishing you were at my door
F                                      C    
I'd open up and you would say, "Hey,
     F                        Am       G
It was enchanting to meet you,
                        F                       Am        G
All I know is I was enchanted to meet you."

F                       C         G                     F
This night is sparkling, don't you let it go
                              C                  G                    F          
I'm wonderstruck, blushing all the way home
                 C           G                     F
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
                            Am     G
I was enchanted to meet you


C  G  F  C

C  G  F  G


                                 F
This is me praying that
                                Am
This was the very first page
                       G              F
Not where the story line ends
                                     Am
My thoughts will echo your name
        G            F
Until I see you again
             
                                     Am
These are the words I held back
              G              F
As I was leaving too soon
                               Am    G  C
I was enchanted to meet you
    
C                                        G            
Please don't be in love with someone else
 F                                         C               
Please don't have somebody waiting on you
C                                       G          
Please don't be in love with someone else
F                                          C           
Please don't have somebody waiting on you


           F                 C              G                  F        
This night is sparkling, don't you let it go
                  C                 G                F
I'm wonderstruck, blushing all the way home
                               C            G                 F        Am  G
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew

F                   C           G                   F
This night is flawless, don't you let it go
                   C                    G            F
I'm wonderstruck, dancing around all alone
               C        G                   F
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
                                    Am      G    C
I was enchanted to meet you

C                                           G         
Please don't be in love with someone else
F                                        C            
Please don't have somebody waiting on you

Let your freak flag fly

Express yourself doo-doo doo doo-doo doo doo-doodally doo,  express yourself doo-doo doo doo-doo doo doo-doodally doo


Can anyone guess my theme for today? I bet you can't. I'll bet you five bucks that you can't guess what my big idea is for this post. Oh man, this is such a great idea. And so original, too! Okay. Here it is. Drum roll please! My theme for today is... EXPRESS YOURSELF!!! But seriously, You are beautiful in every single way. Words can't bring you down. You are beautiful no matter what they say. Yes, words can't bring you down. So don't you bring other people down by discouraging their weirdness and how they express themselves today. When I get overwhelmed or whatever by some dramatic (to me) thing that's happening in my life, I find some song that I relate to and play it on the Ukulele. Or piano. But normally Ukulele.
This is my Ukulele named Norma. We have been together for, oh, about a year now. I guess you could say that things are starting to get serious. Anyway, this is how I express myself. By playing Norma. I just love it. It makes me happy. My wish for you is that you will Find a way to express yourself that makes you really happy. That encourages you to step out the door and face the world.

Wishing you love, hope, courage, and colour,

Try; even P!nk says so!

Hello fellow people who have way too much free time! I would like to start by saying that if you have anything you would like me to spout nonsense about, just put it in a comment or write me an email about it ( you can reach me at haileygimmer@gmail.com , and no, that isn't my real name). Now that I've gotten anything that has anything to do with 'normal' out of the way, I guess it's time to start with my subject of the day. You see, I'm really lazy. I'm no good with commitment, when I feel like doing something bad for me I do it anyway, and when I'm upstairs in my room reading a book and realize that I'm thirsty, I don't go downstairs for a glass of water. My point is, I have a hard time getting myself to do things. But I have recently realized how much I actually care about my health. So I am on my latest health kick. And my catch phrase for this one is:
  "That voice inside your head that says you can't do it is a liar!"

So if there is something on your mind that you really want to get into or try, don't just sit around and wait for it to happen, because that isn't realistic! But you know what is? The feeling you get when you do something that you have wanted to do for a while. when you finally complete that task that has been sitting there. the pride you get over what you just did is one of my personal favourite feelings. Take it from a former couch potato; Getting off your butt is worth it!

Wishing you love, hope, courage, and colour,

Hi! My name is Doug! My master made me this collar so I may- SQUIRREL!!!

Greetings Earthlings (or just people who some how happened to stumble across my almost undoubtedly sad and pathetic little blog and are now trying to get away from it has fast as they can)!!!!!!! I am a girl who plays the Ukulele, loves God, and isn't brave enough to voice her opinions to people she actually knows, which brings us to what I'm doing here. I will post whatever (and probably whenever) I darn well feel like! That may include devotions, quotes, songs, What I think about some kind of political nonsense, or maybe just me talking about how much I hate Apple products. I am going to ask you not to put any harsh language into any comments you may have because they are not only hurtful, but also there very well may be children reading here. And I just wanna say that if there's anyone out there who just so happened to find this blog and wants to email me, please do. Although, I'm not sure how quickly I'd reply, seeing as I don't really use this email address :).

wishing you love, hope, courage, and colour,
just a girl and her Uke
