5 ukulele chords used in "cardigan" by Taylor Swift: Bb, Cm, Eb, Fm and Ab
Thank you! I used DDDDU DDDDU
I sounds intimidating to ukulele beginners but I promise its easy. Just remember to strum lightly and relax.
instead of Ab i sing Fm. it sounds more accurate and like the original song
You can do -1 and then Capo on 2nd Fret to make play the original easier.
ATTENTION PEOPLE WITH LOWER VOICES!
do Am instead of A
and Dm instead of Em
If you play the Ab chord down a fret, it matches the pitch better… I don’t know the name of this chord but yeah 👍
i recommend +2
-3 is much easier for anyone who needs it 🙂
cool
was nice.
-1 is easiest.
i did am instead of a that sounded better to me 🙂
