With the amount of chords, this is like a test from the gods.
this song is beautiful. Bo always has the best ending songs.
ngl the chords are super easy its just memorizing all of them thats hard
-5 is a challenge but i do like it starting with a D
Strumming?
man i love this song so much
I keep my uke tuned to Bb instead of C normally, so I learned to play this and a lot of other music transposed at +2. I just played it on a uke with normal tuning and oh my gosh it sounds lovely in A. I think the chord progressions are more fluid when played in A, because the A chord is more open than the G. I’d recommend that people try tuning their ukuleles down to Bb and playing this (and many other songs in G) at +2
Abdim is E7 basically
there are many chords and their names are complicated, but once you actually remember which chord was which it’ll get easier 🤠
the chords are a bit too complicated- there so many easier variations!
