There’s a debate on the best way to play this on Uker Tabs, so here’s the way I think it’s best to play it. My version includes the melody and the chords. I think it needs that extra bit of body on the ukulele.

Where there are notes played on the E and A strings, I’m doing a sort of half-up strum with my index finger.

And why not do your ukulele up like this to match the tune.

    wow, sounds great much fuller than previous tabs i’d tried, good work mr woodshed.
    I’m really annoyed the bridge has just burst off my baritone uke, i now have little more than a drum with a very nice finish.

    I’m gonna try that one.
    Tks

    Fantastic yet again!

    This website really is the driving force behind me learning how to play the uke, everytime I put it down for a bit I find something on here that makes me pick it up again and keep practising.

    Cheers Al!

    Tobias: Thanks.

    cbf: That’s a pain in the arse. I hope it wasn’t an expensive one.

    Marcelo: Good luck with it.

    Dan: Thanks for the kind words.

    I prefer playing a 7th chord at the end rather than the minor… thank you so much for this !!!

    great tab! You make it sound so easy though! I’m having a lot of trouble with it but I’m getting it slowly.

    This sounds great but is there a tab anywhere for the second part of the intro?

  11. Valérie on August 17th, 2009 6:39 am

    wow! this gave me another sweet moment of joy! Thanks!

  12. Woodshed on August 19th, 2009 10:52 am

    vatsal: Keep working at it. You’ll get there.

    Lukulele: I don’t remember seeing it anywhere.

    Valerie: You’re welcome.

    Dear woodshed, is there any chance you could put up the last part of the riff in a similar style to the first part?

    - cheers coel

    0-2-4-2-0-2-0-2 on E string-2-0

    thats the simplified version of the last part of the riff, it’d just be cool if you could spark it up a bit like what you’ve done here, would be awsome

Got something to say?
