How to play Speakers on ukulele
The strumming pattern that fits is the island strum: d – d u – u d u. It rolls along at a medium pace of around 110 bpm. This arrangement is in Gb major. The fretting hand earns its keep in this one: I have the chords at the proficient level. Want friendlier shapes? Drop it 4 half-steps, then a capo on fret 4 restores the key you see here. Use a light even strum so the storytelling lyrics stay up front.
