    Scout -

    Oh, you were the OP. Well, my strong advice is don't trust chords on old sheet music, ukulele or not. The guitar fingerings they give you are usually at the open position and are misleading.

    You're welcome to those sheets but they don't have intros. As I said before, if you're stuck for an intro for any song take the last 2 or 4 bars, which usually have a turnaround, and use that. Or the turnaround at the end of the first A section. Some tunes have specified intros and you can usually find them somewhere on the net.

    You'll also find that not all versions are the same... such is the world of sheet music.

    PS. Don't try to play it like Joe Cohn, he's a very naughty man. Oh, hang on, that was Cherokee

    Gosh, it's gone very quiet... beavering away, I expect.

    I couldn't resist the chords but I don't think the nightingale sang much like this. I know Berkeley Square :-)

    I like his collection becasue he almost always sings full versions with intros - often omitted or forgotten...

    I also once owned Billie Holiday Songbook (nothing in relation to Billie really - except that she sang those songs)... and it had those old intros too.
