Jak zahrát Wellerman na ukulele
Vzor brnkání, co sedí, je osminy dolů-nahoru: d u d u. Jede si svižné tempo kolem 130 bpm. Na téhle stránce je písnička v C moll. Akordy hodnotím jako šikovný, spravedlivý střed. Hit strong downstrokes and let everyone sing the chorus.

easier chords for beginners would be:
For the Verses: Am, Dm, Am, Dm, Dm, E7, Am
And for the Chorus: F, C, Dm, Am, F, C, Dm, E7, Am
Ab doesn’t sound right in the chorus, I find that another Cm sounds better.
Capo on third fret and transpose -3 is the easiest from what I can tell
+2 is easier for begginers
