How to play Breakfast in America on ukulele
To play Breakfast in America on ukulele, strum the upbeat emphasis: d u d U d u d U. It rolls along at a medium pace of around 100 bpm. This arrangement is in C minor; the original recording is in F major. I rate the chords skilled, a fair middle ground. Want friendlier shapes? Drop it 3 half-steps, then a capo on fret 3 restores the key you see here. Accent the up-strums between beats to match the bouncy piano feel.
