4 ukulele chords used in "The Ballad of Lucy Gray Baird" by Rachel Zegler: Bbm, Db, Gb and Ab















i would recommend -1 since the chords are easier and D-UU strumming pattern
If you put the capo on the first fret it’ll prevent you from having to barre for most of the chords, so it makes it way easier to play. The only one you’d have to barre for is the Ab!
-1 super easy
i pluck the strings on this song, and first pluck the c string then i pluck the 3 other strings at the same time twice
a __xx
e __xx
c x____
g __xx
I also use -1 with capo on first fret
