Guitar Chords for 那英 夢醒了

I found this Guitar chords over the net for Na Ying's (那英) classic "夢醒了" and wanted to try on Ukelele. But not today! haha... The key for this song might be too high for me so I actually looking for the other version sang by the composer.

Hopefully can find and learn to 自弹自唱! haha...

我想起你描述夢想天堂的樣子 手指著遠方畫出一棟一棟房子
C___________Dm__________F______________G__
你傻笑的表情又那麼誠實 _所有的信任是從那一刻開始
C_____________Dm___________F______________G_
你給我一個到那片天空的地址 只因為太高摔得我血流不止
C_____________Dm___________F______________G__
帶著傷口回到當初背叛的城市 唯一收容我的卻是自己的影子
F____________Am_______F____________G____F____________Am__
想跟著你一輩子 至少這樣的世界沒有現實 想賴著你一輩子

做你感情裡最後一個天使
____C____________Em_____F___________G__
如果夢醒時還在一起 請容許我們相依為命
____Am____________Em____________F___________G__
絢爛也許一時 平淡走完一世 是我選擇你這樣的男子
____C____________Em_____F__________G__
就怕夢醒時已分兩地 誰也挽不回這場分離
____Am____________Em____________F_____________G_____C
愛恨可以不分 責任可以不問 天亮了 我還是不是你的女人

Cookies in Jar

As mentioned on my 20th February post, "Personalised Your Social Greeting Card", I created a new blog to share my views on articles, movies or other stuff. Food sharing will remains in my food blog, Critic's Critic, while personal views will remain here.

Reason? I am not confident to go too open and afraid my past being dug out! Alright, that is if anyone is interested lar... haha

March started off with Eason's concert in Singapore and I am still unhappy with SportsHub's greediness for increasing booking fee from $3 to $4 and additional if we wanted to print out ticket. Bullshit! Anyway, Eason's concert is enjoyable despite me not knowing Cantonese well. I need to rely on the subtitles (when there is) for the songs he is singing... I like his voice and how his dancers (or actors, according to him) performed that night. This resulted in me post this on my Facebook... :)


Honestly, I am impressed and took me awhile what I wanted to say within a short few sentences. I do not want to go on and on describing the whole show!

Anyway, I also ended my Ukelele lessons with Replugged Music on that day. I am interested in the Advance course but time is the main issue for me to commit to any new lesson plans. Hence, I decided to KIV the plan and maybe practise more by myself first. =) No point going with my friend if she could not help me much when I am not around. Yes, I am still upset! haha.
