5 ukulele chords used in "The Scientist" by Coldplay: Bb, C, Dm, F and Fsus2
I’m fairly new to ukulele but I am now almost perfect at many songs like this because of the boredom of staying at home all day. By the way, my cat loves to bite, scratch, and unroll toilet paper. OF ALL THINGS, TOILET PAPER.
the transition from fsus2 to c is sooo satisfying i cant
I transpose it to +2 because the cords are easier and it fits my voice better. I also like to fade it out by playing the cords with one less string each time for the last four lines.
DDDDU +2 works best. : )
It’s too low for me to sing in the original key but I found that it sounds really pretty with +5 if you have a higher voice.
I love this song!
I guess we’re all roasting Karl now
d-d-d-du works best for me
ddddd and DUDUDU are my strumming patterns, transpose in -5
Nice 😀
All Coldplay songs that I have played sound SO on the ukulele.
If this is too low for you, I use +5 transposer because I have higher voice and it works well for me.
Actually, make that C7sus.
Here some of the Bb and F sound better with Dm for the Soprano ukulele! 😊
I just want to note the lyric is “and ask me your questions” not “nurse me your questions” — but I love this tab
For the part between “be so hard” and “oh take me back to the start” C Fsus2 D#6 sounds good.
for the strumming i used DDDDDDDUP
If you’re looking for a strumming pattern, do DDDUD. It sounds like the song😊
For intermediate players with a higher voice, +5 is also a great option
