Ladybug Philosophy - ukulele original

The idea for this came to me after watching "Beautiful Chaos", a video by Rutle, a very creative videographer, animation artist, and musician. Check out her YouTube channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/Rutle

I shot the ladybug footage in the foothills NE of Marysville, CA.

Ladybug Philosophy

Ladybugs, they're itty bitty
living in a ladybug city

Ladybugs are a lot like us
in a ladybug metropolis

They live and love, they sleep and eat
they walk around on ladybug feet

Got things to do, places to go
and no one knows what ladybugs know

Oh ladybug, your friends have flown
a new day dawns, fly away home

Ladybugs, it seems to me
have a ladybug philosophy

live and love, sleep and eat
walk around on ladybug feet

Got places to go, got things to do
be nice to them, it's their planet too


Here's how I play it:

The intro is Csus4 (0013) C (0003) Csus4 (0013) C (0003) 
then C (0037)  D7 (2025) Csus4 (0013) C (0003)

The verses just use the C(0037) D7(2025) Csus4(0013) C(0003) pattern.

The bridge (Oh ladybug...) is Am (2000) E7#5 (1203) Fadd9 (0010) C (0003)
then Am (2000) E7#5 (1203) Fadd9(0010) G9 (0210) G7sus4 (0213)

Then back to the C (0037) D7 (2025) Csus4(0013) C(0003) pattern.
The outro (be nice to them...) is the Csus4 (0013) C (0003) pattern.
