Hi Steemians!

This is one of my favorite "go-to" songs to play on the ukulele! It's so light-hearted and fun to play. This was one of the first songs I learned four years ago because it has only four basic chords - C, G, Am and F. These are four of the easiest chords on the ukulele and the first four that I always recommend people learn. There are literally hundreds of songs you can play with these four notes!

Ps... My sister, @maryjaney, just joined Steemit today! Go check out her Intro Post and give her some love!

Here are the lyrics:


Well you done done me and you bet I felt it
I tried to be chill but you're so hot I melted
I fell right through the cracks
And now I'm trying to get back
Before the cool done run out
I'll be giving it my best-est
And nothing's going to stop me but divine intervention
I reckon it's again my turn,
To win some or learn some

But I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait, I'm yours

Well open up your mind and see like me
Open up your plans and damn you're free
Look into your heart and you'll find love love love love
Listen to the music of the moment people dance and sing
We are just one big family
And it's our God-forsaken right to be loved loved loved loved loved

So I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait I'm sure
There's no need to complicate
Our time is short
This is our fate, I'm yours

I've been spending way too long checking my tongue in the mirror
And bending over backwards just to try to see it clearer
But my breath fogged up the glass
And so I drew a new face and I laughed
I guess what I been saying is there ain't no better reason
To rid yourself of vanity and just go with the seasons
It's what we aim to do
Our name is our virtue

But I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait I'm yours


I hope you guys enjoy my cover of "I'm Yours" by Jason Mraz! Have a lovely Saturday night!

xo, Lea

Aww Darren I’m SO excited that you got a huge curie upvote on your open mic post!! Thanks for the shout out too. That was really kind of you to mention me. :-)

@coruscate Love it! Ukulele has really gotten big over the years! I have 3 people on staff who teach ukulele. :-)

Woah! 3? That’s pretty awesome. It definitely seems like it gains popularity more and more every year.

Oh my goodness! This is what I've missed. Someone stole my phone, I've not being able to get online since I dropped my comment on your last post, my celebrity. I think I should be listening to this every morning and night. It's turning me up! Thank you very much for this, I think I also follow you real cool by learning one instrument, lol. But I must confess to you, I love all I'm getting from your stable. Please, shine on. I remain your fan.

Aww thanks Michael! Sorry to hear that you lost your phone. That is always such a pain to deal with. Thanks for always being one of my biggest fans! 😊

You're very much welcome.

beautiful cover! 0/

Thanks my friend! I’m glad you enjoyed it. 😊

Well what can I say another one again my dear. You keep flying high, and I'd be checking out your sister, hope she can play the ukulele too?

Yes, she does!! She’s a great ukulele and violin player. I hope to do some duet videos with her soon!

Jason Mraz went to the same high school as me! Lee-Davis in Mechanicsville VA. I love your music!

No way!! Haha that’s awesome! Funny that his name is really Lee Davis.

His name is Lee-Davis? The high school that we went to is Lee-Davis High School

Oooh gotcha. Haha I thought you were saying his name was Lee Davis. It’s not uncommon for singers to use a different stage name.

beautiful song, really enjoyed your playing of the ukulele, you are very talented, keep doing your thing!

Aww thanks @pasie15! I’m so glad you enjoyed my cover of this song!

Woohow Im yours too! Well your cover is so amizing

Haha well thank you @j-sone! I’m so glad you enjoyed my cover of this song. 😊

beautifull cover ! U have a beautifull voice and i love this song ! I'm learning to play guitare but it's so hard :/
I hope one day i could play like you.
Next Cover a reggae song ?

I’m so glad you love the cover! I’ve never covered a reggae song, but would be open to trying! Do you have a specific song you think I should learn?

The song I learn currently is one of the best song of Bob Marley: "No woman no cry". This song is not hard to learn but I fail to chain the chords :/

A beautiful voice.
Do you sing before bedtime?

Thank you! I don’t sing particularly before bedtime... why do you ask?

I would like to hear before sleeping, live:D

i can not hear you sing. maybe not yet, hope the future will be able to hear. but I see from your style of writing and your photos, you must be good at singing. You deserve to be a singer. You also have the advantage of your beautiful face.

Oh did the Dtube video not work for you? Sorry to hear that! Thanks for stopping by and checking out my post anyway. 😊

Wow the ukulele, that is awesome! I loved it!

Thanks so much! The uke is a fun little instrument. 😊

You are most welcome! I have never mastered an insrument sadly! I think it is one of the coolest accomplishments or achievements one can acquire! Luckily my kids are very imtersted in learning, one has learned the bass and guitar and one is learning piano! I love all types of music, so I really enjoy that they share that same love! Best of luck to you! Not that you need it, You are already amazing!

So cool that your kids play the bass and the piano! If you ever decided to learn an instrument, the ukulele is actually really easy to learn! I wrote an article a few months back called Complete Starter Guide to Learning the Ukulele. If you are ever thinking about learning, you might some helpful tips in there. 😊
