The Ballad Of Hamantha Tab uke di Jack Stauber (Accordi Baritono)

[Verse 1]

Bb Am Gm F (2x)

Bb       Cm       Am
Life's extension lottery
Gm                    F
Kind to some, but not to thee
Bb          C            Am
Born with a rare and sad disease
         Gm                   C      F
She grew a ham where her head should be


[Pre-Chorus]
Bb                      Am
Flowing hair, she was a cutie pie
   Gm               F
Meaty face and a lovely eye
    Bb                Am
Her dream was to be a famous star
           Gm                             F
But at the rate she was going, she wasn't going far


[Chorus]
Bb          Am
Hamantha, Hamantha
          Gm                  F
You were impossible to ignore
 Bb         Am
Hamantha, Hamantha
   Gm                    F
So greedy we wanted more


[Verse 2]

Bb Am Gm F (2x)

Bb               Dm     Am  C
Her father was a simple man
Gm
He wanted to help
            F
"In any way that I can!"
Bbm               Cm                         Fm
Home from school, he watched his daughter cry
       G
In the yard, he cursed God
          F
And fired at the sky


[Pre-Chorus]
Bb                      Am
Flowing hair, she was a cutie pie
  Gm                F
Meaty face and a lovely eye
Bb                            Am
Dreams in the sky, her father felt her pain
          Gm                           f
And as he shot at the clouds, it began to rain


[Chorus]
  Bb        Am
Hamantha, Hamantha
Cm        Gm                  F
You were impossible to ignore
 Bb         Am
Hamantha, Hamantha
   Gm                   F
So greedy we wanted more


[Bridge]
Bb                  Am
Got a call from the doctor
       Gm                F
He had some amazing news for her
   Bb                  Am
He just developed a cure
 Gm7                                     Gm F
If she hurried over now, he'd try it out on her

Bb                             Am
Burst out the door, she was beaming
 Gm                                      F
Among the raindrops her happy tears were streaming
Bb                      Am
Finally free from her pain
    Gm                           F
But something else fell with the rain

  Bb                         Am
A stray bullet shot by her father
Gm                 F
Painlessly nested inside her
    Bb                              Am
She fell to the the sidewalk, now empty
       Gm                    F
Of the life which once christened her body


[Interlude]

Bb Am Gm F

F
"Nurse
F
She... she's gone."
F
"Oh - oh dear."
F
"I left a lunch on the table in the operating room for the bereaved
F
A cooked ham, as is customary for these... dark situations."
F
"Doctor - what - which one is the - which one is the ham?"
F
"I - I must go, I'm on break."
F            Bb
"Oh dear."


[Pre-Chorus]
                        Am
Flowing hair, she was a cutie pie
  Gm              F
Meaty face and a lovely eye
       Bb
At her time of death
             Am
The doc said "time to eat!"
   Gm                        F
So he took a bite out of her face meat


[Chorus]
  Bb       Am
Hamantha, Hamantha
Cm        Gm                  F
You were impossible to ignore
  Bb        Am
Hamantha, Hamantha
   Gm                   F
So greedy we wanted more


[Post-Chorus]
Bb                         F    Am
Soaring infinitely through space
 Gm                 F
Hamantha's soul was graced
Bb                   Am
With a glance of our humble planet
 Gm                     F
At which she was amazed

    Bb          Am
The news of her untimely death
    Gm                    F
Had spread out near and far
    Bb                    Am
And through her soul, the truth was whole
    Gm                      F
The dream had crossed the bar

 Gm                       F
Hamantha had become a star
 Gm                    F
Hamantha was finally a star
 Gm                       F
Hamantha had become a star
 Bb              C     F
Hamantha was finally a star
