How to play A Whiter Shade of Pale on ukulele
The strumming pattern that fits is the half-bar: d – d u. Expect a relaxed pace, around 76 bpm. I posted this one in its original key of C major. The chords land in comfortable skilled territory. Change chord halfway through each bar as the bass walks down.
