4 ukulele chords used in "Pumped Up Kicks" by Foster the People: A, D, Em and G
played this in the school talent show and managed to scare all the teachers. woop
for a cool and different strumming pattern I used Down-tap-up-up-tap-up. Kinda goes with the beat of the song. just if you wanna try something new 🙂
I personally think it sounds a little better with the chord progression Dm F C G
Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
DDUUDU
I think this is a good song to play but it’s kinda dark lmao
When I play it I usually use DTUUTU it’s pretty simple and makes it sound good
I️ think it sounds better using Am instead of A
y the a the song is about a shooting basically, in an interview the band stated that they were trying to get intoned the mind of a school shooter 😉 THE LYRICS ALSO EXPLAIN IT ALL
What is the strumming pattern for the whole song?!
Another strum pattern is down tap down tap
I love this
Transpose +1 to play along with the track
Try doing Dm, F, C, and G as your chord progression and Down chuck Down Down as your strumming pattern c:
Dude, I love this song.
I think during the chorus it sounds good to use a C instead of an A 😃
chords: Dm F C G
strumming pattern: Down-Tap-Up-Up-Tap-Up
Personally I think that sounds better but yknow use what you want 🙂
This is extremely messed up XD
Lol why were my m8s complaining bout having to play this?
Transporter on 0, put a capo on the first fret and play DDUUDU 🙂 sounds amazing
