How to play Famous Blue Raincoat on ukulele
Famous Blue Raincoat is usually fingerpicked on ukulele rather than strummed. If you would rather strum, the waltz works as a fallback. On this page the song is in A minor. I rate the chords skilled, a fair middle ground. Pick a bass note on one and answer with higher strings on two and three.
