How to play To My Parents on ukulele
Try the everywhere 4/4 as a starting point: d – d u – u d –. This arrangement is in Bb minor. The fretting hand earns its keep in this one: I have the chords at the proficient level. Prefer easier shapes? Transpose the song down 1 half-step, then a capo on fret 1 brings you back to the key on this page.
