This is a nice one, and falls in that category of 'songs you don't expect a ukulele player to cover'.

They both live in Nantwich where we are so double bonus!)If you want to be adventurous, try picking the melody of the song, but as a beginners blog, this is just the chords!SWEET CHILD OF MINEINTRO (Picked) A A Em Em D D A A (x2)[A] She's got a smile that seems to me re[G] minds me of childhood memoriesWhere [D] everything was as fresh as the bright blue [A] sky[A] Now and then when I see her face it [G] takes me away to that special placeAnd If I [D] stare too long, I'd probably break down and [A] cry[E]Woah oh [D] oh, Sweet child o' [A] mine[E] Woah oh oh [G] oh, Sweet love of [A] mineSOLO - A A G G D D A A x2[A] She's got eyes of the bluest skies, as [G] if they thought of rainI [D] hate to look into those eyes and [A] see an ounce of pain[A] Her hair reminds me of a warm safe place, where [G] as a child I'd hideAnd [D] pray for the thunder and the rain, to [A] quietly pass me by[E]Woah oh [D] oh, Sweet child o' [A] mine[E] Woah oh oh [G] oh, Sweet love of [A] mine(REPEAT)
