Jackie Wilson Said - Van Morrison - impromptu of a fave song: Airport Ukes Pt 2

Coming back from Melbourne Ukulele Festival with 3 others from the Blue Mountains Ukulele Group. (Blue MUGs) We were flying on the cheap - Tiger Airways. Steve's bag was a bit overweight & they wanted to charge him $15. He took out the 2 bottles of beer he was carrying home & headed to put them in the rubbish bin. I suggested a better alternative - we had plenty of time. So we sat in the outdoor cafe, 4 of us, our ukes and 2 beers, and we got to strumming. Turned out to be a lot of fun

Jen -

I've listened to this several times now. This is fast becoming one of my favorite performance videos, as you are all so relaxed and having so much fun. Thanks - this is such a treat!

Aloha John, and thanks very much - I am truly grateful for your lovely words. Here's to the joy of music-making, made that much more accessible via The Ukulele.
Have uke - will travel; have uke - will spread joy

And here are the chords I figured for this song which is so much fun to play and sing - enjoy
