How to play Skinny Love on ukulele
The strumming pattern that fits is the driving 4/4: d – d – d u d u. It rolls along at a brisk pace of around 150 bpm. You are playing it in A minor. The chords stay at the rookie level, nothing tricky in there. Drive urgent down-ups and never stop your strumming hand between the chord changes.
