How to play Lost Cause on ukulele
The strumming pattern that fits is the everywhere 4/4: d – d u – u d –. It rolls along at a relaxed pace of around 82 bpm with a light swing. You are playing it in Bb minor. The chords put it squarely at the skilled level. For easier shapes, shift it down 1 half-step with the transposer and clip a capo on fret 1 to land back in the same key. Lean back on the beat and let the strums swing loosely.
