San Francisco Ver3 ukulele

San Francisco Ver3

• Bb

NOTE: Hi. All props due to Davious for his Ver2 of these chords (they got me to play it correctly) but...

I listened to the song and played along and it's actually one half-step up from Ver2. 

Also, I found the chorus break to be slightly different than in Ver2,
which, like I said, owes a lot of credit to Davious.

Intro:
Bb - F - Bb - F

Verse 1:
Bb            F
Up in San Francisco where the
Bb               F
forest meets the bridge
  Bb                F
I thought I saw you standing there and
F#              Eb
then you fell into the well.

Verse 2:
    Bb            F
But that was many years ago
    Bb           F
And I am so much older now
   Bb           F
My brother is a soldier now
F#              Eb
I can't see him anyhow on
F#             Ab
hilltop in the wind.

Chorus Intro:
Bb                  Cm
And you, swimming uptide, or just
F           Bb 
  tuning in radio stations...

Chorus Break:
Cm...............
Bb - F/A - Cm/G - F/A ; Bb - F/A - Cm/G - F/A

Chorus:
Bb         F              Cm
I left my love in San Francisco
Cm                          Bb
That's okay, I was bored anyway.
Bb        F           Cm
I left my love in the room
Cm                           Bb
That's okay, I was born in L.A.

Bb         F              Cm
I left my love in San Francisco
Cm                          Bb
That's okay, I was bored anyway.
Bb          F       Cm
I left my love in a field
Cm                           Bb
That's okay, I was born in L.A.

Break:
Bb - F - Bb - F

Verse 3:
    Bb               F
And we were standing on this hill.
Bb              F
Jesus came from Israel.
Bb           F
Eyes above a sacred cow
   F#            Eb
So not to wake a sparrow splashing.

Verse 4:
    Bb            F
But that was many years from now and
Bb             F
   I hope from here on out
  Bb             F
I always seem to want to shout
     F#              Eb
Your eyes are like a cup of tea
  F#             Ab
Ascending to the sun with me.

Chorus Intro:
Bb              Cm
You, swimming upstream, or just
F            Bb              
 tuning into new sensations

Chorus Break:
Cm...............
Bb - F/A - Cm/G - F/A ;   Bb - F/A - Cm/G - F/A
I    was   bro-   ken.    You  were  bro-   ken.

Chorus:
Bb         F             Cm
I left my love in San Francisco
Cm                          Bb
That's okay, I was bored anyway.
Bb         F          Cm
I left my love in the room
Cm                          Bb
That's okay, I was born in L.A.

I left my love in San Francisco
Cm                          Bb                            
That's okay, I was bored anyway.
Bb         F        Cm
I left my love in a field
Cm                          Bb
That's okay, I was born in L.A.

Ending:
Bb - F - Bb - F ... Bb
