sitting here on my couch shouting the lyrics because procrastination is real folks thank you and good night
+3 easier
Pluck the C snare twice then play the chord.
Once for the E and Dbm chords and twice for the A chord , it really gives you the feeling of the original song.
A capo on the first fret gives it that classic uke sound, and is really nice for a sing-along.
+3
-4 100%
this is really fun to play and sing along
-4 beast (best) for me
-2 is easier
Playing E so many times gives me hell. But shouting so loud that i can ignore the world around me while strumming my uke is the best feeling in the world.
