The strumming pattern that fits is the everywhere 4/4: d – d u – u d –. Expect a relaxed pace, around 76 bpm. On this page the song is in B major. This one leans on trickier shapes, with the chords at the proficient level. Play the verses soft and sparse then dig in hard for the chorus.

How was this arrangement?
Your rating helps other players find the best arrangements





















+1 much easier
M voice is right between +1 and +2 so I did +1 and sang at my own octave great song, I recommend it!
If you want to play along with the recording, I would recommend going up half a step (to C) and then tuning your uke down half a step. Much easier than the default chords.
hewo i suggest -1 its easier for me idek
lol the last sentence, “I was made you”
