Liner Notes

An attempt at a modern #ukulele #folk singalong anthem. Or something like that. I should have been working this afternoon but I did this instead. It's better than doing the thing the song is about, I suppose...

I've now lost count of the number of times one of my songs has stolen a chord progression from Don't Think Twice It's All Right. Well it works, I suppose.

This is my first attempt at anything more than uke+harp+voice this season. I was going to add a bass as well but I really need to do some work...

Lyrics

[C][G][Am][F]
[C][G][C]

[F]I could get some [Am]exercise
[F]Climb up some [Am]hills
[F]I could learn a [Am]language
Or [F]brush up on some [G]skills

Or [F]maybe add some [Am]fingerprints
[F]Swiping at the [Am]screen
[F]Bigotry and [Am]violence
[F]All points in be[G]tween[G7]

To [C]doom[G]scroll my [Am]life a[F]way
[C]Doomscroll my [G]life a[Am]way
[C]Doom[G]scroll my [Am]life a[F]way
[C]Doomscroll my [G]life a[C]way

And [F]long before it's [Am]sorted
I'll [F]probably be [Am]dead
[F]I could [Am]fight it
Or [F]take the time in[G]stead[G7]

To [C]doom[G]scroll my [Am]life a[F]way
[C]Doomscroll my [G]life a[Am]way
[C]Doom[G]scroll my [Am]life a[F]way
[C]Doomscroll my [G]life a[C]way

We [F]find it hard to [Am]bear
The [F]state of planet [Am]Earth
At [F]least we've got the [Am]internet
To [F]make us all feel [G]worse[G7]

We [C]doom[G]scroll our [Am]lives a[F]way
[C]Doomscroll our [G]lives a[Am]way
[C]Doom[G]scroll our [Am]lives a[F]way
[C]Doomscroll our [G]lives a[C]way

[C][G][Am][F]
[C][G][Am]
[C][G][Am][F]
[C][G][C]

Let's [C]doom[G]scroll our [Am]lives a[F]way
[C]Doomscroll our [G]lives a[Am]way
[C]Doom[G]scroll our [Am]lives a[F]way
[C]Doomscroll our [G]lives a[C]way

[C][G][Am][F]
[C][G][C]
