How to play Say on ukulele
It runs d – d u – u d u. It rolls along at a medium pace of around 86 bpm. This one leans on trickier shapes, with the chords at the proficient level. Want friendlier shapes? Drop it 3 half-steps, then a capo on fret 3 restores the key you see here. A relaxed island strum suits it, so let each chord ring softly.

Picking/Strum pattern?
the intro doesn’t seem to be incorrect, just in a different key than the rest of the song. One might dig playing Bb, Eb, Gm, F for the intro as well
The change from G-C-Em-D to A#-D#-Gm-F is really weird maybe it should be changed to just either G-C-Em-D or A#-D#-Gm-C throughout the whole song
