    Seems like an appropriate song to play right about now, considering everything that's going on in the world...

    Hey, little tip for beginning players here, if you wanna combine the plucking and strumming, you could strum down, then strum /pluck only the c string. It sounds a bit fancier than just strumming , and its really easy! This was one of the first songs I learned.

I just saved for and bought my first ukulele - first instrument ever and you are just what I needed! you are awesome and helpful, I already taught myself a few songs of your tutorials and I want to ask if you'd consider doing a tutorial for George Harrison's song My sweet lord? there isn't any tutorial on this one and I would love to be able to play it!! Best wishes and have a nice day!!

  • @JackEndemarre
    @JackEndemarre 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    For those, like me, who were a tiny bit disturbed by the 4th playing of the F chord during the verses, i found how to make it sound as the original. Instead of continuing the same picking, you just pick the second string, then the third and then the first. It'll give the right "tidada" that i was looking for ^^
    (Ah! and go back to the usual picking just before the bridge)
    And i add a big thanks for your work, The Ukulele Teacher : ) great job

    This is my favorite tutorial for this song! Thank you so much! I love the simplicity and clarity of the screen, with the chords below and pics of chords to the left. It is so user friendly for this beginner. I have a question though: when I do the picking method, i can't hear the difference between C and C7 so I adjusted to pick the A and E while playing C7, then back to G-E-C. Is this your experience? Did I miss that in the video? Thanks.
