5 ukulele chords used in "Breakeven" by The Script: Am7, C, D, Em and G



















Original chords sound weird in my opinion
Strum pattern?
The correct version without capo is +2
Just play normal Am, it’s easier and sounds better.
I believe the original is with a capo on the 3rd fret, or just transpose the tabs to +3 (:
-2 is easy and sounds nice
I personally like the strum pattern DD-U-X-U
And of course, X means to chuck or hit if you cant chuck
I personally can’t come up with a strumming pattern.
Is it just me or is this a bit too easy to be a 3/5 ?
Is it just me or is this a bit too easy to be a three out of five ..?
Is it just me or is this a bit too easy to be a three out of five ..?
I personally like +5
@Rob Harker play C instead (0003)
Is there a cord that you can put in instead of Am7 as it sounds to high pitched for the song?
The original recording is with capo on 2 but the same chords.
