How to play Rooster on ukulele
The strumming pattern that fits is the driving 4/4: d – d – d u d u. The groove sits around 117 bpm, a medium pace. This arrangement is in Ab major. The chords ask a bit more of you, so I rate them proficient. Stay sparse in the verses then dig into the heavy chorus strums
