How was this arrangement?
Your rating helps other players find the best arrangements






















That’s alot of chords. XD
idk if this helps anyone but for strumming I do DDU over and over for the verses and then on the bridge I do one strum for both of the dm7 chords and then do broken chords ( playing one string at a time) for the other chords in the bridge.
What is the strumming pattern?
What is the strumming pattern?
This is a very minor detail, but the bridge sounds better when you switch out the first Gm7 for a Gm
I’m sorry, heidi_ho; but the cover you reccommend is just horrible. Completely out of tune and horrible electric uke playing . Please, visitors and singers, don’t even open the link!
