THEY PUT THE WRONG PENELOPE SCOTT AS HER PHOTO NOOOO
for people wanting the strumming pattern, i do single downstrums until i hit “the bones are melting” and then i do dduudu, but on the bridge i go back to single downstrums
these chords r perfect thank u!!!!
For the end “i don’t know what i need” I played a Bbm to spice it up a little bit
does anyone know the strumming pattern?
The chord on “I don’t know what I need” should be a Bbm instead of an A7, but otherwise, this is really good!
very good
this is my new fav song to play on the ukulele 💕
The strumming pattern I use for the interlude is complicated but it sounds nice to me so this is what I use :))
F(d-d-uu-u-dudu) A7(ddd-ud-udu-ddu) Bb(dd-uu-ududu) Bbm(d-d-d-du-d)
F (d-d-uu-u-dudu) A7(ddd-ud-udu-ddu) Bb(dd-uu-ududu) Bbm(d-d-d-du) C(d-d-d-du)
for strumming i do ddu udu quite fast apart from the ‘waxy and glitching leaves’ part, i just do single down stokes 🙂
my fingers are imperil but very worth it
Hey, does anybody have any tips for DM I seem to be struggling having 3 fingers on my ukulele so close together.
strumming pattern?
IM SO TIRED OF PRETENDING THAT PENELOPE SCOTT DOESNT SLAP, LIKE BRO–
who else has been locked in their room supposedly doing homework but was learning this
I memorized this in like a week! The chords are super accurate, there’s not too many of them, love it!
