5 ukulele chords used in "Ghosts That We Knew" by Mumford & Sons: Am, C, E7, F and G


















I really like the chorus it’s so pretty
If your voice is high as mine is, you might find it easier to play it 5 half steps down.
I think the first C in the pre-chorus sounds better as an F 🙂
I pick the strings like this: G & A strings together then E string then C string. Chords like they have here and it gives it a great feel.
so good omg <3
Is there a way to get the authentic finger picking? I have ukuelel banjo and I want to know the best picking pattern, any suggestions?
I absolutley love this song<3 its so sad but perfect and easy to play on the ukulele!
