about

In loving memory of Chopper.

Do less every day. Chopper never overwhelmed his schedule with To Do lists and appointments and activities. Chopper knew how to take it easy. He spent most of his days relaxing and another good chunk of them playing. Now, I know we all would love to play all day long, but since that's not an option for most of us, I think we should all take a tip from Chopper and just do less. Make fewer appointments. Schedule fewer activities. And, instead, spend more time living in the moments you're experiencing right now.

lyrics

I think I tuned my ukulele a little low on this recording so the chords may sound a little different than the ones written below. Or I might have just played it a half step low. Here are the chord shapes I'm using. There's no open strings in the ukulele part which makes it easy to adjust the key of the song by playing it on a different part of the fret board.

Verse Chords:
Dmaj7 2224
Bmaj7 2324
Emin 4432
Amaj6 9999
Dmaj7 2224

Bridge Chords
Emin 4432
?dim 3434 -- some full diminished chord. not what it's proper name is.
Dmaj 2224
B 2322
Emin 4432
A7 2434
Amaj6 9999

verse 1
Just take it easy
On this breezy afternoon
Just take it easy
You're completely overdue

bridge
So please turn off your phone
and I'll sing you something soft and slow
and we'll dance like the lights are low

verse 2
Just take it easy
Come and meet me after class
We'll resist our to-do lists
We'll walk shoeless through the grass

bridge
So please turn off your phone
and I'll sing you something soft and slow
and we'll dance like the lights are low

So please turn off your phone
and I'll sing you something soft and slow
and we'll dance like the lights are low
