Wie du River auf der Ukulele spielst
River wird auf der Ukulele meist eher gezupft als geschlagen. Wenn du lieber schlägst, funktioniert das ganztakt-ballade als Ausweichoption. Der Groove liegt bei etwa 68 bpm, entspanntes Tempo. So gepostet bleibt er in seiner Originaltonart C Dur. Die Akkorde bleiben auf Anfänger-Niveau, nichts Kniffliges dabei. Fingerpick it softly and let the sad chords ring out.

all i hear when i listen to this song now is ben platt :,)
strumming pattern? very new here and I can’t find one by just listening to the song so I’m here 🙂
This sounds perfect! The chords are so easy that you don’t even need to transpose it. Thanks to whoever published this!
I find -5 to be much easier… 🙂
You can play along with the YouTube video of Joni singing this song from her Blue album!
if you do the chords the way they are and put a capo on 1 it sounds right.
It doesn’t sound right?
