How to play American Money on ukulele
On ukulele, American Money comes down to the island strum: d – d u – u d u. It rolls along at a medium pace of around 100 bpm. You are playing it in Gb minor. I rate the chords skilled, a fair middle ground. Float a light strum and let the dreamy chords hang back.
