6 ukulele chords used in "We Are Young" by Fun.: Am, Bb, C, Dm, F and Gm















Anyone else decide to just be stupid and buy a uke during quarantine and then learn it too quick? Basically just finding random shit and playing my heart out. Hope ya’ll are doing the same
-5 is the one I like although they left out a C on the first chorus.
For the chorus I like to go:
F F Am Dm Dm F
Tonight We are young So let’s set the world on
Bb Bb Bb F C
fire We can burn brigh-ter than the sun
Who else saw the lyric that actually is Harry Potter related?
*crying* hekkin nostalgia (I used to fall asleep in the car to this song, coming home from my sister’s concerts and my dad’s school activities
+2 is easier notes for uke and range for female vocals
lol I just realized I said that like months ago
GOOD SONG
This sounds great! If you do Bb but don’t put the bottom finger on the 1st string it sounds just as good.
In the first verse shouldn’t “Gm” and “A#” be swapped around?
great song
ahh this songgggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggg
-5 (with a capo on the 5th fret) works well for me and sounds like the song
definitely a song to scream in the car
crazy how good this can sound on a uke
I liked -2
Can someone please explain how it says that there’s an alternate version where you transpose down 5, but put a capo on the to stay on the same key. I know I’m knew at this but wouldn’t that just be a whole lotta work for nothing? Like it would even out anyway? As long as I’m tuned properly, there’s no need for a capo and transposing correct?
Quarantine has been good for my ukulele haha
i absolutely love how when you transpose it down 5 and put a capo on fret 5 it sounds literally angelic i love love love this!!!
Every time it goes F and then Dm, you can put an Em between them and it sounds really good.
