How to play Fortnight on ukulele
On ukulele, Fortnight comes down to the everywhere 4/4: d – d u – u d –. Expect a medium pace, around 96 bpm. On this page the song is in B major. This one leans on trickier shapes, with the chords at the proficient level. For easier shapes, shift it down 4 half-steps with the transposer and clip a capo on fret 4 to land back in the same key. Hold the chords soft and sparse to match the dreamy synth mood.
