I Love Puppies - song

Today’s song is one I co-wrote with my ukulele class tonight at the Cordova Branch Library. It’s another two chord, C/Am song. I haven’t memorized the one I wrote a couple of weeks ago so we made one up. Once I got home I tweaked it a little, well, maybe a lot. Not the best video, but best I could do tonight.




This is a song we’re writing about puppies
Using two chords on our ukuleles
This is a song we’re writing about puppies
Using two chords, C and A minor.

I love puppies, l love puppies
Do you love puppies, l love puppies
I love guppies, they like to watch my puppies
I love my guppy because he likes my puppy

Do you love puppies, l love puppies
Do you love puppies, l love puppies
Do you love puppies, l love puppies
Do you love puppies, l love puppies

We could sing this song all day long
About how much we love our puppies
We could sing this song all day long
About all the things that we love so much

I am learning how to play ukulele
It has a headstock, neck, and body.
A fretboard, frets, and a nut
The body has a sound hole and a bridge,

A note is a single tone, I am singing notes.
La, la, la, la, la, la. La, la, la, la, la.
A chord is several notes, I am strumming chords.
[strumming]

This is a C chord, C, E G
This is A minor, A, C, E
This is a C chord, C, E, G
This is A minor, A, C, E

I like playing my ukulele
I could sing this song all day long
I like playing my ukulele
U K U L E L E.
Do you like playing your ukulele?
I like playing my ukulele
Can you spell ukulele?
U K U L E L E.
