How to play Stay on ukulele
The strumming pattern that fits is the driving 4/4: d – d – d u d u. It rolls along at a medium pace of around 116 bpm. On this page the song is in Db major. The fretting hand earns its keep in this one: I have the chords at the proficient level. For easier shapes, shift it down 6 half-steps with the transposer and clip a capo on fret 6 to land back in the same key. Play a bright steady strum and let the vocal push the rhythm.
