How to play Choosin’ Texas on ukulele
Try the driving 4/4 as a starting point: d – d – d u d u. On this page the song is in Db major. The fretting hand earns its keep in this one: I have the chords at the proficient level. Want friendlier shapes? Drop it 1 half-step, then a capo on fret 1 restores the key you see here. Mute the strings with your palm on beats 2 and 4 for a country backbeat.
