4 ukulele chords used in "No Roots" by Alice Merton: A, Bm, Em and G
Hey! friendly reminded that G***y is actually a slur! This song is so good, but I always sing witches/nomads instead, just because i think that’s the general vibe the artist was trying to get. Does anyone have any other things they sing instead?
This song was hard at first but I kept trying and eventually (now) it is super easy for me.
