How to play Ziggy Stardust on ukulele
On ukulele, Ziggy Stardust comes down to the down-up eighths: d u d u. Expect a brisk pace, around 152 bpm. I posted this one in its original key of G major. The chords ask a bit more of you, so I rate them proficient. Let the chords ring in the verse then drive eighths through the chorus.
