The sun’s not even up

He says, “Pops, can we stop?”

Yes, I was like that once

How to play Me and Mine on ukulele

Try the driving 4/4 as a starting point: d – d – d u d u. This arrangement is in Gb major. The fretting hand earns its keep in this one: I have the chords at the proficient level. Prefer easier shapes? Transpose the song down 4 half-steps, then a capo on fret 4 brings you back to the key on this page.
