Willie Nelson – Stardust (Tabs) A tab of Willie Nelson’s version of Stardust (written by Hoagy Carmichael) for everyone who likes a bit of Willie.

The Band – The Weight (Tab) A version of The Weight in tribute to Robbie Robertson. Robertson appeared on the Playing for Change version alongside some uke from Taimane. Intro: Usually, you’re free to play around with the intro. Not in this case. Robertson’s intro is iconic and doing anything other than playing it as […]
Placebo – Pure Morning (Tab) Placebo’s Pure Morning is hilariously unsuited the ukulele. But it’s always fun to have a go at those. You can decide for yourself whether it actually works because I’m not sure. There’s no chord progression at all in the song. It’s just an E drone the whole way through (Eb […]

Rod Stewart – Maggie May (Tab) A tab of Rod Stewart’s 70s smash Maggie May.

I almost skipped it but it’s a fun tune that’s worth learning by itself. Intro 2: The second […]
Nirvana – All Apologies (Tab) Sinead O’Connor’s cover prompted me to knock up a quick version of Nirvana’s All Apologies. Intro: It’s a fun riff to noodle away on. I recommend learning this bit even if you don’t learn the whole song. (Put a capo on the first fret to play along with the original.) […]

The Velvet Underground – Sunday Morning (Tab) Sunday Morning is the poppiest song The Velvet Underground’s debut album. It has a laid back, easy going vibe. And you have two days to learn it so get to work. Watish! Intro: Played high up the neck to give a music box feel. But if it’s too […]
