8 ukulele chords used in "Happy" by Pharrell Williams: Bb, Bb7, C, Cm, Cm7, Db, F7 and Fm7














Wooo! This is an AWESOME song to play if you are intermediate. Love this song! Though most of chords are easy (if you do -1), this song is NOT for a beginner!
I thought that is a beginner song?!??
I love this song it’s so groovy but for easier chords transpose to +4
If you’re having trouble with the placement of the chords, I’d recommend singing the background singers part on the chorus where it says “happy” just keep singing “happyyyyyy-eeeee-eeee-eee-e” the way it does in the song. helped me with the changing chords!
-1 is easier
Love your site! Thank you for the song!
Really fun but a hard song!
Wouldn’t recommended for new uke players!
Happy Uking!!!
This is FUN. Go -1 & capo first fret if you want even easier chording.
It is so hard to switch to each note because I am just learning these notes
-1
wc clap: It’s Fmin7 because the riff that plays over that chord includes the note Ab, and the A-natural in an F7 would clash with that riff. So… it SHOULD be an Fmin7, not F7
OMG – it took a bit of work to get it down, but once I did, WHOA!!! Everyone goes crazy and gets “happy” when I bust it out. Thanks!
Really fun I love it will do this song again
This is hard but i love the song <3
I am a new uke player. Figured out I have to cut my nails way down before I can do this. My 15 year old son picked it up and went right to town. He plays the bass. I picked it up to use in my preschool classroom and hopefully by the time June comes around I will be up to doing this song because I love this song.
When you transpose it to -1, it’s still somewhat hard because the chords change so quickly, but the notes themselves are a lot easier. I love this!
this is so hard 🙁
Db chord should be Dbmajor7 as in ‘HerveB’link
What is the rhythms /shuffle
The F chord in the verse is actually only an F7, not Fmin7 not sure why some places have it as an Fmin7 – especially when it’s such a difficult chord! And also – the chorus is only an F chord, not a F7.
