How to play In The Still Of The Night on ukulele
On ukulele, In The Still Of The Night comes down to the 6/8 lilt: d – – d – u. The meter is 12/8, four groups of three per bar, so the pattern loops twice per bar. The groove sits around 60 bpm, a relaxed pace. On this page the song is in F major. This one leans on trickier shapes, with the chords at the proficient level. For easier shapes, shift it down 3 half-steps with the transposer and clip a capo on fret 3 to land back in the same key. Sway in slow triplets like a classic doo-wop ballad.

This song gets stuck in my head all the time! I find that transposing it +2 is pretty easy too.
