How to play New Year’s Day on ukulele
On ukulele, New Year’s Day comes down to the driving 4/4: d – d – d u d u. Expect a brisk pace, around 130 bpm. As posted it stays in its original key of A minor. Nothing scary in the shapes, it sits on the easy ukulele songs list at the novice level. Drive the eighth-note downstrokes hard to match the relentless pulse.
