6 ukulele chords used in "Golden Slumbers" by Elbow: Am, C, Dm, Em, F and G














I think this is by the Beatles originally though
The strumming pattern I use is D-DUDUDU with an emphasis on the first D, but
D-DUD-DUDUDUDUDU for “Sleep pretty darling don’t you cry”, and D-DU-UDU from “Golden Slumbers fill your eyes” until the next “Sleep pretty darling”.
