How to play He Doesn’t Know Why on ukulele
The strumming pattern that fits is the driving 4/4: d – d – d u d u. The groove sits around 116 bpm, a medium pace. This arrangement is in Bb minor. 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. A rolling mid-tempo strum supports the stacked vocal harmonies.
