3 ukulele chords used in "When I Was Older" by Billie Eilish: Bm, Gb7 and Gmaj7
I love this song so much! I found the strumming pattern “dduudu” best to do!
that bridge sounds SICK!!!
Can someone explain the picking pattern??
I love Billie with my whole heart and this song is perfection, i love it so much
+3 is the easiest in my opinion
Strumming/plucking pattern?
Hi…
I pluck it like the fourth-second string at the same time and third-first string at the same time(fast)
Idk if you undertsand but i hope so:3
plucking sounds amazing
+3 but change all the Bbmaj7s to Dm
I like it, but it seems a BIT out of tune with the song. But thanks, I’ve been waiting for this.
P.S I’m first!
I think a good plucking pattern is 4-3-2-1
