Como tocar American Girl no ukulele
No ukulele, American Girl se resume ao 4/4 agitado: d – d u d u d u. Ela rola num ritmo médio de cerca de 118 bpm. Está postada no tom original de D maior. Os acordes caem no território confortável de habilidoso. Drive constant down-up strums to match the jangly Rickenbacker chug.

The lyrics are wrong at the end of verse one. It’s “But she had to die trying to achieve that one little promise she was gonna keep.”
Transpose to -2 and use D instead of D7
If it’s hard to do a transition between d g and a do g like this do a Bm then put your middle finger on the e string on the third threat
Strumming pattern?
