Much easier and sounds just as well at -3.
This is great! Really accurate.
Has anyone got any tips on how to do the quick G-Eb-G-Eb transition at the end of the first bridge?
this is the ending tab, play it and then end with a down strum on c
A ———0——
E —0——3—
C 0————0
G ——5———
Ok this is going to sound weird but, if you tune the strings to F – A# -D -G (+2 of what is tuned) and you use +2 to play it is much easier and it sounds better for thick voices, it resonates much more and I like it a lot.
is there any specific strum pattern?
when i first got my ukulele, some of the first songs i looked at were queen songs. i was intimidated for the large amounts of different chords and quick changes so i thankfully saved myself the pain and stayed clear lol. almost a year later of consistent practice, this song is a breeze first try! not perfect, but pretty easy 👍 thats on frequent and consistent practice
It’s imraietpve that more people make this exact point.
