3 ukulele chords used in "Animal Crackers" by BoyWithUke: Am, C and Cmaj7
DDUUDU is the strum pattern
I did a whole other chord combination
A#maj7
G7
Cmaj7
C6 (No strings)
This is because he uses a low G so anyone with a high G (normal tuning) use these chords
Example
Verse 1:
A#maj7 G7
I have Animal Crackers
Cmaj7
And the birthday cake
C6
That I bought from Walmart
Then repeat this pattern throughout the entire piece 🙂
Strumming pattern:
DDU UDU
Have a good day!!!
I used a G chord instead of the Cmaj7, and it sounded more like the original in my opinion 🙂
It’s better if you use the cords Gb6 on the first 3 frets, G7, Cmaj7, and Am7. And with the strumming DDUUDU. Sounds more original in my opinion.
Yaaaaa
