How to play Lady Madonna on ukulele
The strumming pattern that fits is the down-up eighths: d u d u. Expect a medium pace, around 115 bpm, with a light swing to it. This arrangement is in C major; the original recording is in A major. Chord-wise this is an easy one: everything sits at the rookie level. Swing the eighths to nail the boogie-woogie piano bounce.

epic song, the beatles rock!
Easy to play. If it helps, with A and D, I strum down twice for each note so it’s kinda fast?
