[Intro]
F7  E  F#7  B7  E
[Verse 1]
EI saw the splendour of the moonlight
On Hono—C7lu---B7lu BEay
EThere’s something tender in the moonlight
On Hono—C7lu---B7lu BEay
C#mAnd all the beaches are filled with peaches
G#mWho bring their ukes along
EAnd in the glimmer of the moonlight
They love to sC#7ing this soB7ng
[Chorus]
EIf you like the ukulele lady
Ukulele lady like-aC#m-you
B7If you like to linger where it’s shady
Ukulele lady linger tEoo
EIf you kiss ukulele lady
While you promise ever to be C#mtrue
B7And she sees another ukulele
Lady foolin’ round with yEou
[Bridge]
AMaybe she’ll sigh (an awful lot)
EMaybe she’ll cry (and maybe not)
F#7Maybe she’ll find somebody else 
B7By and by
ETo sing when it’s cool and shady
Where the tricky wicky wacky C#mwoo
B7If you like the ukulele lady
Ukulele lady like-a-yEou
[Verse 2]
EShe used to sing to me by moonlight
On Hono—lC7u---B7lu BEay
EFond memories cling to me by moonlight
Although I’m C7far B7a---Eway
C#mSome day I’m going, where the eyes are glowing
G#mAnd lips are made to kiss
ETo see somebody in the moonlight
And hear the sC#7ong I mB7iss
[Chorus]
EIf you like the ukulele lady
Ukulele lady like-a-C#myou
B7If you like to linger where it’s shady
Ukulele lady linger tEoo
EIf you kiss ukulele lady
While you promise ever to be tC#mrue
B7And she sees another ukulele
Lady foolin’ round with yEou
[Bridge]
AMaybe she’ll sigh (an awful lot)
EMaybe she’ll cry (and maybe not)
F#7Maybe she’ll find somebody else 
B7By and by
ETo sing when it’s cool and shady
Where the tricky wicky wacky C#mwoo
B7If you like the ukulele lady
Ukulele lady like-a-yEou
