How to play Second Chance on ukulele
On ukulele, Second Chance comes down to the driving 4/4: d – d – d u d u. The groove sits around 108 bpm, a medium pace. You are playing it in C minor. The fretting hand earns its keep in this one: I have the chords at the proficient level. Prefer easier shapes? Transpose the song down 3 half-steps, then a capo on fret 3 brings you back to the key on this page. Strum steady eighths and lift the volume going into the chorus.

The chord progression sounds less out of tune
During the chorus like this Cm. Eb. F. Ab
While I was messing around with this song, I noticed that the F chord during “Even the man in the moon disappeared” doesn’t sound quite right… Try out an F7 chord there instead, it sounds much better! =)
-3 is a lot easier 🙂
On, this is my one and only voice
