How to play Importance Of Being Idle on ukulele
The strumming pattern that fits is the island strum: d – d u – u d u. Expect a medium pace, around 110 bpm, with a light swing to it. This arrangement is in A minor. The chords ask a bit more of you, so I rate them proficient. Shuffle the eighths for a lazy swung feel and stay loose.
