Sukiyaki Ue O Muite Arukō Acordes

Sukiyaki: Kyu Sakamoto.
#1 in USA and Canada on CAPITOL Records in 1963.
It Bumped Lesly Gore's 'It's My Party,' out of top spot.
Also made #18 on R&B Charts.
 
(Yeah, I know it's different from what's on the lyrics
 sites. But this is from the first 1963 recording
 and in my opinion, is still the best translation.
 This is the original key from Sakimoto's version. The
 English translation of the original title is "I Shall
 Look Up While Walking.")
 
 
[Verse 1]
G            Em            G       Em
I'll hold my head up high..looking to the sky,
G             Bm          Em             Am    D7
so they won't see all the tears that are in my eyes.
G           Am    C         B7
No one will know, I'm going through,
Em C     Bm     Am        G       C Bm Am
my first lonely night without you.
 
 
[Verse 2]
G          Em               G         Em
I know the night will hide, sadness I feel inside,
G           Bm          Em            Am         D7
no one will know of the smile, and my lips won't tell them.
G          Am   C         B7       Em
I'm losing you, and going through, my first
Bm     Am        G       C G G7
lonely night without you.
 
 
[Chorus]
   C                        G             G7
As I walk alone, the lonely winds seem to say,
Cm                              G           A       D  D7
from this darkness on, all your nights will be this way.
 
 
[Verse 3]
G           Em        G          Em
So, I'll go on alone, pretending you're not gone.
G         Bm           Em         Am      D7
But I can hide all the moments of love we knew.
G           Am   C       B7       Em C     Bm
Memories of you, as I go through, my first lonely
Am        G       C G
night without you.
 
 
[Chorus]
   C                        G             G7
As I walk alone, the lonely winds seem to say,
Cm                              G           A       D  D7
from this darkness on, all your nights will be this way.
 
 
[Verse 4]
G           Em        G          Em
So, I'll go on alone, pretending you're not gone.
G         Bm           Em         Am      D7
But I can hide all the moments of love we knew.
G           Am   C       B7       Em C     Bm
Memories of you, as I go through, my first lonely
Am        G       C G
night without you.
 
 
[Outro]
Em C     Bm     Am        G       C G
My first lonely night without you.
