play as it shows with no transposition and replace Am7 with standard Am. Do not do anything with other chords, it will sound and be correct.
i agree that Am7 should be replaced as Am and Dm as F, but for the bridge around the end i suggest keeping the Dm since its different
I personally think that replacing the Dm’s with F’s sounds better.
Despite the others, this song works quite well with a baritone uke. I recommend a lot if you use one. (p.s. i use a love 4 string so it may make my chords sound more correct)
me not like the cords, they no sound right 🙁
strumming pattern
Try the -5 it’s not that bad
I dunno about this one… I tried playing it but it just didn’t sound right.
I love this song!
For me personally the Am7 sounds better as an Am.
I agree it sounds better Am7 as Am
And Dm as F
Great song…. horrible chords
What katya said was
These chords do not work at all, whoever wrote these is tone deaf
