How to play Ants Marching on ukulele
The strumming pattern that fits is the busy upbeat 4/4: d – d u d u d u. The groove sits around 140 bpm, a brisk pace. You are playing it in D major. The chords stay at the novice level, nothing tricky in there. Chop a syncopated strum with muted flicks for that busy acoustic groove.
