I love the way you start this song, but I like how I play the way down by the stream part, in Fm and then walk down to an A7, and I can’t figure out a funky way to incorporate that and still make it sound good! Poop!

Thanks Al! This was one song I really wanted to play when I first picked up a uke but found it a bit too tricky. So it feels like a bit of a milestone to have a workable version in my repetoire. :)

I’ve tried these chords and a few others on the web and listened to it many times…
This is how I’ve ended up playing it. Not perfect but I think it’s fairly close:

I have Lyle Lite … and non of these are correct. But some are better cause they are easier to play.
Lyle tunes way down .. thickr gauge ,, plays the opening using
5-7-5-7 /// 5-7-5-8 / 5-7-5-5 / 5-4-3-3

Do you know what version Eddie Vedder plays? I know it’s not this one, is it the “Ukulele Lady’s” version?

I love this song. Tender backstory. It’s about a guy who had to sell his ukulele on eBay to pay the rent. He had one last evening with it before shipping it off. Tragic.

This is the closest version I could find to the movie version.

Yes, the G6sus2 the G6 are reversed, a typo. The second measure on the first bridge is perfect. Other than that, due to my limited skills, I greatly simplify the bridges, & simply hold the “G” chord & walk my pinky up & down a bit to follow the melody.

Thanks!
