How to play Knocking On Heavens Door on ukulele
The strumming pattern for Knocking On Heavens Door: d – d u – u d u. It rolls along at a relaxed pace of around 72 bpm. I posted this one in its original key of G major. Chord-wise this is an easy one: everything sits at the rookie level. The island strum fits this one perfectly so keep it slow and even.

What is the strum pattern? I tried doing quarter notes but it sounds a bit off
Very easy but it sounds better to me using c,g,am,f. Not sure why maybe I haven’t heard the tune in awhile. That might be why. But very cool
Am sounds better for me instead of Am7
