New to ukulele? Try subbing the ‘Fmaj7 and E’ for ‘F and E7’ until you build up your hand strength.
Good! Except the chords i use are: Am, Dm, G, C, F, E, and E7.
And the pattern i use for the bridge is DDDUDUDDU.
Hope this helps for a more simplified version!
I love this song,
but the ending sounds a bit wrong?
did anyone try something different
in the song there’s another I will survive at the end
One chord I would change is Bm7. play the 5th (F#) flat. In other words 2nd string first fret. Bm7b5
