Minnie Riperton – Lovin’ You (Tab)
Today we’re taking on Minnie Riperton’s sweet lullaby and notoriously bad karaoke choice
Lovin’ You.
I’ve kept the arrangement sparse to match the original and to focus on the melody. But it’s still a challenge to play due to the amount of movement up and down the neck. The trickiest bits being the jumps up to the 12th fret. I found bar 19 particularly challenging.
Of course, Minnie Riperton’s famed vocal range far outstrips the range of the ukulele. So the ultra-high “ah-ah-ah…” section is shifted down an octave.
It’s played with one finger per string picking all the way through.
