How to play Daylight on ukulele
The strumming pattern that fits is the driving 4/4: d – d – d u d u. The groove sits around 132 bpm, a brisk pace. You are playing it in D major. Chord-wise this is an easy one: everything sits at the rookie level. Build from soft verse strokes to full strums in the chorus
