5 ukulele chords used in "Sweet Child O’ Mine" by Guns N' Roses: A, C, Cadd9, D and G



















Try to watch the ukulele teacher’s tutorial of this on YouTube, it’s way easier. He used the chords C-Bb-F-C for the verses and G-Bb-C for the chorus. Also, the strumming pattern he used was DDUUD 2x for each chord (for the verse) but for the chorus the chord C will only be the one repeated twice.
Just for anyone wondering, the riff is not in the same key as the chords. To fix this transpose it to -2 🙂
I LOVE THIS SONG
do -2 to match the chords with the riff, works better for singing 🙂
If you want to play the song in the default chords, I think I may have figured out the beginning of an appropriate riff. Please correct me if I’m wrong.
xA|—-0——10—9—-|
xE|———2———|
xC|–2———9—–9-|
xG|——0————-|
Is there a way to print music from here?
I used the ukulele teacher’s version on YouTube but this was also super helpful when learning the riff 🙂
This song still sounds awesome when put to a mellow vibe through uke, so don’t jam out too hard. It hurts your instrument.
how am I supposed to -2 a zero.
It seems so short
I can’t listen to it because I don’t have amozon music
Anyone got the tabs for the solos in the middle?
-2 for a key that matches with the tabbed riff
D D U D is what I used @Karma is key
Strumming pattern?
Could you please add the chords for the rest of the song: where do we go……
A 5 0 10 0 10 0
E
C 2
G 0
Idk how to read the riff. I need notes, not lines and numbers.
Fairly new to this what putting it -2 mean?
The ukulele teacher on youtube has it all down and its 10 times better than this…
