Google Translate: An Original Song taby ukulele według Malinda Kathleen Reese (Chwyty barytonu)

[Intro]
C
When your friend from France says…
A
“Comment ça va?”
F    G
And you're not sure what to say back
FG
Well it would sure be great
  Am   F
To have Google Translate
     F      G        C
To get you back on track

[Verse 1]
C      G
Google Translate uses data from millions of sources
     C
Like our websites and books and all the rest
       Em
Many are from the United Nations
      F            G
Where the translators are the best
    AmEm
It maps your inputted words to concepts
AmEm
Tries to figure out the context of the contents
      Am
Even if it's nonsense
        Em   Am
To make translated comments to be a proper respondent
         Em         F      G
To whatever correspondence you couldn't understand

[Chorus]
      F   GC   Gm
But language is messy and its rules are meant for the breaking
FG    C
Cross cultural communicating can be a struggle for you and me
F  G
But never fear, Google Translate is here
     Am   D
Whatever imperfections may appear
           F         G
At the end of the day
FG
The more we know, the more we'll say
 AmD
And the more we say, the more we'll agree
  Am      GC
And the better the world will be

[Skit]
C
So why did I still get an F on my language homework?
Uh, uh, well…
F
Well, it sounds like you need to learn how to use Google Translate responsibly

[Verse 2]
CGm
For the world's most spoken languages
F        G
Documents abound
        C         A
But if you're working with let's say, Corsican
F  G
Less resources can be found
Am      Em
'Cause spoken words are not just concepts
Am     Gm
They have culture and intent
        F     Dm
And grammar is a pain to master
  DG     G
It's not easy to say what you meant... what you mean

[Chorus]
      F   GC   Gm
But language is messy and its rules are meant for the breaking
FG    C
Cross cultural communicating can be a struggle for you and me
F  G
But never fear, Google Translate is here
     Am   D
Whatever imperfections may appear
           F         G
At the end of the day
FG
The more we know, the more we'll say
 AmD
And the more we say, the more we'll agree
  Am      GC
And the better the world will be

CF

[Bridge 1]
D#  F
Sometimes we find the grammar is just a wreck
  D#F
Or auto detect thinks you're speaking Czech
F#    G#
Or the inflection goes up when it should feel like a frown
F#        F#
Or the circumflex is inside out and upside down
A B
Or you meant to say "Hey" but instead said "Go swim"
C       Cm
Or you meant to say "Where" but instead said "Who's Jim?"

[Bridge 2]
EmAm
Look, technology isn't perfect
      Em     Am
But hey - neither are we!
      Dm    Am
As long as we know it's limitations
FG
We can learn to use it wisely
Like not translating lyrics to songs 14 times in a row
But, hey, it makes for a really good laugh and it makes us smile and so

G
Just as long as we know...

[Chorus]
         F    G         C      Gm
That language is beautiful, logical and free
FG          C
How else would understanding be possible between you and me
F  G
SO never fear, Google Translate is here
     Am   D
Whatever imperfections may appear
           F         G
At the end of the day
FG
The more we know, the more we'll say
 AmD      G  Am  G
And the more we say, the more we'll agree
  Am      GC
And the better the world will be
