I love the challenge of these chords. And it sounds great!
a better intro (from ukuleletricks.com):
Eb G7 Cm Db7 Eb Bb7
Eb Bb Bbm Bb
In the interlude between first two verses just do the top line 🙂
My vote’s for -3, which is the closest to how I’ve seen it in a ukulele book.
4+ suits me perfectly, but I also suggests the 3-
I love this song so much! ❤️❤️
I like -3 because you can use a capo on it but that’s just me
fab song tricky but great I suggest transposing +4 (all is quite easy except for Gb!) 😛
I do -4
-3 is great if you want to play it like cavetown
i love this song 🙂
I do it -3 and I just use the strum pattern: strum, hit
Does anyone have a strumming pattern for this? I’ve been doing down strokes but I was hooping someone knows how to fill it up the sound a bit more
Is there a strumming pattern people like for this?
+2 is easier for me if it helps anyone
Love luv this song!
I was going to sing this for my friends going away party, I think this song is pretty good but if you know a better one, I would love to look into it.
The transpose I use is -3, this is easy (some may find this complicated…) but half the chords are wrong… It says C – G then C – G and C – G in the intro. This to me is wrong, I reckon that the progression for this is: C – D#dim – Dm – D#dim again. If you try this, in transpose -3, it sounds more accurate compared to C -G 3 times.
I do it a different way. I do it like this with a capo on the first fret
CFC,FC, FCGAmx3, FGC
