How to play Always on ukulele
The strumming pattern that fits is the everywhere 4/4: d – d u – u d –. Expect a medium pace, around 85 bpm. On this page the song is in Db major. The chords ask a bit more of you, so I rate them proficient. Want friendlier shapes? Drop it 1 half-step, then a capo on fret 1 restores the key you see here. Play the jazzy chords softly and let the offbeats breathe for a mellow feel.
