i use Cm,G, Am, F. with a D-D-U-D strumming pattern 🙂 super easy and sounds beautiful!
for yall that find the chords hard, go to the transposer, and click on -1. LOL it will save your soul! 🙂
does anyone know any easier versions?
-1 is super easy and sounds good. ; )
Me and an old friend of mine would practice this for a school talent show that our school had, but then Covid hit, so we never got to preform it. We don’t talk anymore but whenever I play this song I think of him and all the fun times we had together. He was my bestfriend and it hurts but the wounds will mend(sorry if this is cringy lol)
Does anyone have any tips for getting better at doing a strumming pattern and singing at the same time? I would really appreciate it if you did!?
thankyou ukutabs!!
some easier versions I use are DDUUD and instead of Dm use F
-1 is really easy and still sounds good
I use D-D-U-D
