How to play Tighten Up on ukulele
To play Tighten Up on ukulele, strum the driving 4/4: d – d – d u d u. It rolls along at a medium pace of around 100 bpm. On this page the song is in Gb minor. The chords ask a bit more of you, so I rate them proficient. Want friendlier shapes? Drop it 2 half-steps, then a capo on fret 2 restores the key you see here. Add percussive chunks and lean on the backbeat for the bluesy swagger.
