16 ukulele chords used in "I Dreamed A Dream" by Les Miserables: A, Am, B, Bm, B7, Bm7, Dbm, Dbm7, D, Dm, E, Em, Em7, Gbm, Gbm7 and G
















-2 is easiest and sounds the best
This is perfect. But just an FYI, if you play for the original Broadway recording it should be on capo 1. Just so anyone knows 🙂
AMAZING! When I played it, it reminds me of the sad life story of Fantine. Her song moved me to tears and my family was looking at me like “wtf why are u crying???” Lol
This is perfect. Well done sir! (Or Madame. I don’t discriminate)
I have never seen the movie but I listened to the sound tract, and fell in love with this song.
If ur on +1, then the last chord shouldn’t be E it should be an F 🙂
The easiest chords are at -2 but it won’t be in the key to sing along
This is absolutely perfect, I went with some minimal finger picking instead of strumming and it was gorgeous
I absolutely LURV THIS SONG!!! (I saw Les Miz with my dad and have been obsessed ever since…) It’s a little hard but once you get the hang of all the chords it’s pretty easy…
If you want to sing it like Anne Hathaway did, the use +1.
I love les mis and but this sounds a bit cheery on uke uke but it’s still great. The -2 chords are quite easy but a bit low?
I love This Musical!
Star, mine were like that too
