I realized I had to learn ‘Smelly Cat’ again.
I tuned my guitar and realized I don’t know the chords,” Kudrow admitted.
“All the chords were there for Smelly Cat!”
Kudrow told DeGeneres with a laugh.
“So thank you world, for posting the chords.”
“I learned it, and then my throat closed,” said Kudrow.
“I was so panicked!
I couldn’t get anything out!
I didn’t know what was going to happen.”

“That really almost made me cry,” said Kudrow.
“That blew me away.
That was amazing.”
