Buddy Holly/Hellogoodbye – Everyday


Hellogoodbye – Everyday (PDF)(Chords)

Mentions of a ‘Ukulele Recordings’ EP from Hellogoodbye have been cropping up around the net recently, but I couldn’t find any mention of it from an official source. It seems to have leaked onto the blogs, but I assume it’s headed for official release. The EP contains The Thoughts That Give Me the Creeps and this cover of Buddy Holly’s Everyday.

I worked out this tune on the assumption that they were using a capo on the first fret, then I saw this video. But I’ve left it as it was because the chords make more sense that way and it gives you the opportunity to use the more familiar open chord shapes rather than the more difficult barre chord shapes he’s using.

    You’re welcome, Emily. We’re supposed to be being hit with the winter weather tomorrow. Sounds like a weekend in bed.

    Great song for the ukulele- thanks for posting chords.

    I’ll play it in bed all weekend.

    Lonna: Have a fun weekend!

    Paul: Every time I’ve seen him with a uke, it’s been a Kala KA-T, so I’d guess that’s what he’s using on the recording.

    Walter: Just up, down, up, down etc. should get you through. Four up-downs for the D and two each for the G and A.

Got something to say?
