How to play Murder In The City on ukulele
Murder In The City is usually fingerpicked on ukulele rather than strummed. If you would rather strum, the everywhere 4/4 works as a fallback. It rolls along at a medium pace of around 100 bpm. On this page the song is in Eb major. The fretting hand earns its keep in this one: I have the chords at the proficient level. Fingerpick the chords softly and let each note ring under the vocal.

+2 was easiest but the harder ones sound better
Prior post is correct, G should be Gm instead. But very helpful and much appreciated.
Does anyone know the strumming pattern?
The G major should be a G minor 🙂
this is a great tab thanks a ton
-3 is easier
