MP3 Silent Night (Tab)(PDF) In the ukulele harmonics post I promised tab for a harmonics only version of Silent Night. I hope you’ve been practicing the stuff in that post, because here it is. And it’s tricky. This version starts off fairly easy. The natural harmonics at the twelfth fret shouldn’t cause too many difficulties. […]

Dear Santa, I’ve been ever such a good boy this year and if your list says an different it must be an administrative error because the police station was on fire when I got there. So here’s the stuff I want: A tenor KoAloha Sceptre (or at least a concert koa ukulele). Ukulele Hero T-Shirt […]

Winter Wonderland (Chords)(PDF) Another Christmas song with no reference to Christmas in it but I loved the version by keonepax with Bosko and Honey I had to write it up. In the chord chart I’ve shown the chord inversions that keonepax is playing, but it’s great to mix them up with other inversions. Here are […]

Weihnachten mit der Ukulele (PDF) As well as his classical and traditional tab book, Wilfried Welti has also put together an ebook of German Christmas carols. Some of these – such as O, Tannenbaum and Stille Nacht – are very familiar outside of Germany. Some of them are less recognisable – such as Ihr Kinderlein […]

12 Days of Christmas (Chords)(PDF) Incredibly irritating to song to go through sober, but the big advantage of it is that all the numbers from 12 to 6 just require one strum of a D chord. The best bit, obviously, is the ‘FIVE GOLDEN RIIIIIIIINGS’. I like to beef that part up a bit with […]

I probably shouldn’t admit this, but I find most Christmas songs unbearably bad. The only type of Christmas songs I love are the old Pagan ones that have had a thin layer of Christianity papered on top (much like Christmas itself) and one of the best, Down in Yon Forest, crops up on the Ukulele […]

Uke Hunt is going on its Christmas holibobs and it’ll be back in the New Year. If you want to make sure you’re the first to know when it’s back, subscribe by RSS or by email. A big thanks to everyone who has read, subscribed, commented, emailed and contributed. It’s been great that so many […]

You’re still looking on the net for Christmas presents this late? You are screwed. Unless… The big advantage with ebooks is that they’re delivered straight away (unless you pay be echeck – slogan: “Do you miss the hassle of real-world checks?”) and you can send them to anyone, anywhere instantly. In my opinion, the best […]

The Pogues and Kirsty MacColl – Fairytale of New York (Chords) One of the joys of Christmas is that Shane MacGowan is on the radio and TV as often as he should be the whole year round. Since the BBC has decided that the words ‘faggot’ and ‘slut’ are perfectly fine and it looks like […]

Sarah Silverman – Give the Jew Girl Toys (Chords) Like Mr Garrison, I’m very eager spread the love to all during the holiday season. So here are the chords for Sarah Silverman’s protest against Santa’s blatantly anti-semitic present giving policies. I’ve written the song up in D-tuning as it makes the chords much easier to […]
