How to play Kingston on ukulele
To play Kingston on ukulele, strum the everywhere 4/4: d – d u – u d –. It rolls along at a relaxed pace of around 80 bpm. You are playing it in Bb minor. The chords put it squarely at the skilled level. For easier shapes, shift it down 1 half-step with the transposer and clip a capo on fret 1 to land back in the same key. Play slow and loose with a soft strum, leaving lots of space.
