This song is intended for ukulele, and as such, these are the ukulele chords in
the original key, also playable on guitar with a capo on the 5th fret. I worked it
out by ear on my uke. This is in no way my work, it is the original work of Julia
Nunes, and we love her for it. if you're cool enough to have a uke, just ignore
the bottom two strings. They're only written in for the benefit of the majority of
people who have guitars. if there are mistakes, I apologize.
