How to play Hit Me With Your Best Shot on ukulele

The strumming pattern that fits is the driving 4/4: d – d – d u d u. Expect a medium pace, around 120 bpm. On this page the song is in E major, while the recording itself is in D major. The fretting hand earns its keep in this one: I have the chords at the proficient level. Punch firm downstrokes and hit each chorus chord right on the beat.
